Pneumatic Conveying Bulk Bagasse
Guidry, A.  1976.  The critical condition for successful pneumatic conveying is to maintain a minimum material velocity under varying material flow rates and material density changes. Pneumatic Conveying Bulk Bagasse. Sugar Journal, August 1976:55-56.
Observations on the Occurrence and Nature of Polysaccharides in Sugarcane
Hidi, P., Keniry, J.S., et.al.  1976.  Brief discussion is presented of the effects of the polysaccharide, dextran, on raw sugar manufacture and refining and of the procedures most commonly used to estimate the extent of dextran in cane juices, process materials and raw sugar. Modifications to the…
Filtering Quality of Raw Sugar
Murray, J.P., Runggas, F.M., et.al.  1976.  A detailed analysis of the mechanism of the starch-corbonatation interaction has revealed that starch does not perform as a single entity but rather in the form of its two major components. Amylopectin is found dispersed predominantly within the body of the carbonate lattice. Amylose is most capable of…
Extraction Performance of a Diffuser Using a Mathematical Model
Rein, P.W.  1976.  This paper describes the application of the model to a full scale diffuser of the moving bed type, the testing of the model by comparing actual diffuser results with the model and the prediction of the effect of changes in process conditions on extraction in a diffusion system. Extraction…
Employee Protection from High Noise Levels
Gassaway, C.L.  1976.  On October 24, 1974, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) issued a notice of proposed rule-making concerning revisions to occupational noise exposure regulations. The paper presents a program whereby required work is minimized and yet can satisfy the OSHA requirements. Employee Protection…
