Increasing the Performance of Cylindrical Separators for Cereal Cleaning, by Using an Inner Helical Coil

Abstract

Rotary seed sorters used for wheat processing show some functional advantages in eliminating persistent contaminants, especially due to the more aggressive treatment applied to the processed material. The objective of this paper was to design a new constructive subassembly that would increase the performance of rotary sorters used for extracting various contaminants from seeds. By testing a pilot stand that reproduces the operation of a professional equipment and developing mathematical models that fits the main operating parameters, it was possible to identify the new characteristics needed to improve cylindrical sieves and to optimize the functioning of this equipment.

High-Grade Chemicals and Biofuels Produced from Marginal Lands Using an Integrated Approach of Alcoholic Fermentation and Pyrolysis of Sweet Sorghum Biomass Residues

“…However, a balanced attitude is needed in the use of marginal lands, given that some areas may raise concerns related to environmental impacts, ecosystem services, and sustainability. It is known that marginal lands can host some species of flora and fauna that would disappear due to intensive agriculture [47,48].…”

Моделювання Руху Конструктивних Елементів Зернового Сепаратора Ножичного Типу

“…Переважна більшість наукових досліджень процесу сепарування зернових мас та різних сипких матеріалів присвячена моделюванню цього процесу та визначенню раціональних режимів роботи і параметрів сепараторів, за яких буде забезпечена ефективна робота сепаратора [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31]. Також у наукових працях представлені результати визначення впливу фізико-механічних властивостей сипких матеріалів на процес сепарування [32].…”

Research regarding the common problems of design of the bunkers – A review

“…This ideal equipment solution has high efficiency of precise filling and measurement in the gravitational supply and pneumatic transport of products in the form of powder and granules [2 Researchers have faced some current concerns all about drum unloading bunkers due parts in the design, large amounts of horsepower and energy consumption, the free space (at rest), but especially its size and size. To overcome these concerns, the vertical discharger shown in Figure 8 has been developed and adapted to…”

“…The utility of adjustable bunkers is particularly important in the technologies that involve conditioning of wheat seeds or for various equipment used for separating impurities. Technologies that use rotating cylindrical sieves involve the need to create a continuous flow of material for processing, therefore the design of the bunker significantly influences the efficiency of the separation process [2].…”
