The aim of this research work was to assess the performance of the developed mobile palm kernel nut cracking machine. Total sample of four thousand (4,000) palm kernel nuts were divided into five groups of eight hundred palm kernel nuts and each group was further divided into four sub-groups of two hundred (200) palm kernel nuts. ª¤?
The main objective of this work is to develop simplified palm kernel cracking and cleaning models for the simulation, design and preliminary evaluation of palm kernel cracking and separation …
Journal of Engineering, Design and Technology, 2010. ... Hence, this research focused on designing a palm nut kernel cracking unit incorporating a separator in form of a screen to separate cracked palm kernel nut shell from kernel. The …
The results show that the cracking efficiency of the palm kernel cracking unit is immensely affected by the shaft speed, moisture content and feed rate. The effect the shaft speed, moisture content and feed rate (weight of kernel) have on the performance and efficiency of the palm kernel cracking unit as presented in Table 3.
Palm kernel oil, major viable oil in Nigeria is obtained from the kernel of the palm kernel tree after cracking the palm kernel nut. The kernels are not useful until the kernels are separated from the shell but usual way of cracking palm nut to get the kernel is a time consuming and labour intensive process,[Oke,2007].
the oil extraction of palm oil from the palm fruits, virtually all methods involved in palm kernel nut cracking both in traditional and small-scale exist in scattered or separate units of operations.
This work aimed at developing a mathematical model, validate and optimized for predicting whole kernel recovery as a performance parameter for a palm nut cracking machine, using mixed variety of ...
