Effective Work

The purpose of the research is the reduction of high-moisture poultry waste to a condition effective for high-quality manure extrusion. The idea of extrusion technology use for poultry waste is considered. Bird dropping is effective raw material to be used as organic fertilizer, containing elements necessary for plant nutrition. Before entering the soil, the waste requires processing. The working ability of a single-screw extruder is limited by moisture of the pro-cessed raw materials (15...30%). High-moisture poultry waste is poorly homogenized and does not provide an ef-fective porous structure of processed components at the exit from the extruder die. An effective design and techno-logical scheme of an extruder for wet poultry waste processing is proposed, involving mixing it with various fillers and drying it for extrusion to obtain a manure of the required quality. The main goal of the study is the limitation of liquid content in high-moisture poultry waste with fillers to a condition that ensures the production of effective organ-ic manure. The litter components or plant waste are selected as bulkier material. To ensure an effective work of the extruder in terms of its energy saving ability, the moisture content of the vegetative bulkier material should amount to 5...15%. Pre-grinding of bulkier material is to be provided for achieving the required particle size of the filler re-sulting in better moisture absorption. The development of the manure composition for energy saving technology was based on the selection of a effective ratio of the components to be mixed. As a result of the evaluation of the moisture content in mixture components, it was concluded that the bird dropping with litter is the least wet and can be processed using the proposed extruder without adding filler; bird dropping of young and adult birds are subject to extrusion, provided that they are mixed with vegetative bulkier material in the ratio of 1:1 and 1:2, respectively.

Woollen Fabric

Moisture in greasy wool is associated with wool yellowing, fleece rot and fly strike, whereas the high moisture content of wool fabric is related to desired woollen fabric traits. This paper reports on a simple gravimetric method of determining greasy and clean wool moisture contents to determine fleece moisture heritability. The moisture index of greasy wool has a heritability of 0.37 ± 0.04 and phenotypic correlations of –0.31 ± 0.02 with yield, 0.69 ± 0.01 with suint index and 0.50 ± 0.01 with Methylene Blue absorption. The moisture index of greasy wool was strongly genetically correlated with yield (–0.48 ± 0.06), suint index (0.93 ± 0.03), Methylene Blue absorption (0.92 ± 0.03) but not significantly genetically correlated with clean wool moisture absorption (0.18 ± 044). Moisture absorption of clean wool has a very low heritability of 0.02 ± 0.03. The correlations between moisture index and suint index suggest that greasy fleece moisture index is primarily determined by suint index. The implications of variation in the moisture index of wool on fleece rot and fly strike are discussed.

Feed Material

The high level of energy use by domestic producers does not allow for the competitiveness of livestock products in the domestic and foreign markets. Therefore, the effective functioning of farming enterprises requires the development and implementation of technologies that meet world standards for energy efficiency and reduce energy losses. A very important and energy-consuming operation is the grinding of feed grains (wheat, barley, peas, corn, etc.). In the technological process of feed production, the share of energy consumption for grinding can reach up to 70%. Feed material usually has a high moisture content. In most cases, the grinding is performed by hammer mills. However, when grinding grain with high moisture content this crushing method (by hammer mills) is ineffective. This article is devoted to solving the actual problem: minimizing energy consumption for grinding of feed grains when making feed for farm animals namely the theoretical study of the motion laws of the proposed technological equipment. Presented schematic diagram vibrаtion disk-type crusher for feed material realizes the idea of a combined interaction of vibration and rotational motion of equipment, a combination of shock and cutting impact of work items on the material. This will allow to process raw material with high moisture content without significantly reducing the performance of the mashine and facilitates timely withdrawal of the product from the grinding zone. Also, in order to establish the values of velocity of mass centers constituents vibration equipment kinematic analysis of the given machine graphic-analytical methods of theoretical mechanics and the theory of mechanisms and machines was performed, including established patterns of change of linear velocity of the centers of mass and structural elements in the future will help determine the total kinetic energy of this oscillatory system.

Objetivou-se, com o presente trabalho, propor um novo método de processamento e secagem, assim como avaliar o comportamento dos grãos submetidos a este processo, por meio da taxa de redução de água e do ajuste de diferentes modelos matemáticos aos dados experimentais da secagem. Os frutos colhidos no estágio maduro foram divididos em três lotes. O primeiro foi seco continuamente à temperatura de 40±1 °C. O segundo consiste na secagem do café natural até os teores de água de 0,56±0,02, 0,41±0,02, 0,28±0,02 e 0,20±0,02 decimal (base seca, b.s.), seguido de beneficiamento e secagem contínua nas temperaturas de 35±1 ºC e 40±1 ºC. O terceiro lote correspondeu à secagem contínua do café descascado e desmucilado na temperatura de 40±1 °C. Em todos os lotes, a secagem foi encerrada quando os grãos atingiram o teor de água de 0,12±0,05 (b.s.). Aos dados experimentais da secagem foram ajustados dez modelos matemáticos utilizados para representação da secagem dos produtos agrícolas. Além da representação da cinética de secagem foi avaliada a taxa de redução de água dos grãos. Conclui-se que a taxa de redução de água é maior para a temperatura de secagem de 40±1 °C, especialmente para maiores teores de água. O tempo total de secagem do café beneficiado com alto teor de água é expressivamente reduzido, quando comparado ao tempo de secagem completa do café natural. O modelo de Midilli descreve satisfatoriamente a cinética de secagem do café beneficiado.

Organic materials that are generally used as raw material for organic fertilizer granules (POG) is a natural organic material that has been degrade, smooth and dry. One of the main raw materials are always used with a very high percentage of usage, is manure. Manure potential in Indonesia is very high, amounting to 113.6 million tons per year, or 64.7 million tons per year to the island of Java. From this amount, it will be generated numbers POG production potential of 17.5 million tons per year (total Indonesia) or 9.9 million tons per year for the island of Java. While the realistic POG production predictions figures made from raw manure is 2.5 million tons annually, a figure that has been unable to meet the number requirement of POG greater than 4 million tons per year. Therefore, in producing POG, it should be to maximize the using of the potential of other organic materials so that the use of manure can be saved. With the use of a small amount of manure (maximum 30% for cow manure), it would be useful also to avoid the production of POG with high Fe content.keywods: organic material, manure, granule organic fertilizer

The possible volume reduction and stabilization of the sewage sludge associated with the melting process are expected to be greater than with the incineration process. In addition, melted slag can be utilized. However, since the melting process requires a very high temperature to melt inorganics (ash) in the sludge, the technologies to minimize energy consumption, to establish system operation and to prolong durability of facilities should be developed. This paper discusses the auxiliary fuel consumption as follows.(1)Preparation of a model that provides the auxiliary fuel consumption of the melting system on the basis of the mass and heat balances.(2)Evaluation of the auxiliary fuel consumption in the above model using the cake moisture content, the volatile solids of the cake, the dried cake moisture content and the melting temperature as parameters.(3)Examination of the operational conditions for an energy saving melting system based on the results of (1) and (2) above.

With wind turbines increasing in size, installed at greater distances from the mainland, and greater depths, submarine cables are facing new challenges. Materials and technologies used so far for the production of submarine cables with lead, aluminium, or copper sheaths make them unsuitable or even obsolete for modern solutions such as floating wind farms. The article discusses types of submarine cables, their construction, working conditions, and operational factors, with emphasis placed on the role of the radial water barrier. The focus has been placed on dry and semi-dry designs. The article is also devoted to a discussion regarding directions of further development, possible materials, and constructions that may appear in the future. Current research and results regarding the use of multi-layer coatings with the use of thermoplastic block copolymers for the layer with high moisture absorption are also presented.

The aim of this paper is to study the hygroscopic behavior of hygroscopic exothermic fiber-based materials and to obtain a better understanding of the thermal performance of these fibers during the moisture absorption process. The temperature distribution of different kinds of hygroscopic exothermic fibers in the process of moisture absorption, observed by infrared camera, demonstrated two types of heating performance of these fibers, which might be related to its hygroscopic behavior. Based on the sorption isotherms, a Guggenheim-Anderson-de Boer (GAB) multi-layer adsorption model was selected as the optimal moisture absorption fitting model to describe the moisture absorption process of these fibers, which illustrated that water sorption capacity and the water–fiber/water–water interaction had a significant influence on its heating performance. The net isosteric heats of sorption decreased with an increase of moisture content, which further explained the main factor affecting the heat dissipation of fibers under different moisture contents. The state of adsorbed water and water vapor interaction on the fiber surface were studied by simultaneous thermal analysis (TGA-DSC) measurement. The percentage of bound and unbound water formation at low and high humidity had a profound effect on the thermal performance of fibers. It can therefore be concluded that the content of tightly bound water a strong water–fiber interaction was the main factor affecting the heating performance of fibers at low moisture content, and the content of loosely bound water reflected that water sorption capacity was the main factor affecting the heating performance of fibers at high moisture content. This was further proven by the heat of desorption.
