Efficient Kiln Drying of Quality Softwood Timber [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
This thesis is a study of the kiln drying of radiata pine with a primary focus on the change in wood colour that occurs during this process. The energy efficiency of the drying process has also been examined using computer modelling. The aim of this work

DEVELOPMENT OF DRYING SCHEDULES FOR RUBBER AND PINE TIMBER FOR THE DEHUMIDIFICATION KILN DRYING [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Most of the limber in Sri Lanka is used in unseasoned state or seasoned using conventionalkilns which use fuel wood boilers or open fires as a heating source. A study has beenconducted to introduce dehumidification drying kiln. which is easy to fabricate

Exploratory studies on effects of growth location and conditioning on treatability and permeability of southern pine lumber

open access: yesMaderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2022
Southern pine lumber is often treated with preservatives, but issues related to initial kiln-drying conditions and geographic source across the wide southern pine growth range have been suspected to negatively affect subsequent permeability and ...

Determining and improving air movement profiles in a condensation type lumber drying kiln

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Forestry, 2023
Drying of timber is an inevitable process in quality production. Today, there are drying kilns that their environmental conditions can be controlled. However, this control flexibility also brings with it attention to every variable in the environmental ...

Volume loss as a tool to assess kiln drying of eucalyptus wood

open access: yesFloresta e Ambiente
In this study, we aimed to analyze the kiln drying quality of Eucalyptus grandis, Eucalyptus saligna and Eucalyptus dunnii woods with respect to volume loss. Wood from the three species was kiln dried together with the same drying schedule and conditions

Distribution of low-molecular lipophilic extractives beneath the surface of air- and kiln-dried Scots pine sapwood boards. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
During industrial wood drying, extractives migrate towards the wood surfaces and make the material more susceptible to photo/biodegradation. The present work provides information about the distribution, quantity and nature of lipophilic substances ...

Gonadal development in scorpion mud‐turtles, Kinosternon scorpioides, in a controlled environment

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Stage 20 was identified as the critical point for gonadal differentiation in Kinosternon scorpioides, providing key insights into sex determination. These findings enhance conservation strategies by supporting reproductive management and population viability in both in situ and ex situ programs. Abstract Research on gonadal development including sexual

Effect of air velocity, temperature, and relative humidity on drying kinetics of rubberwood

open access: yesHeliyon, 2020
Kiln drying of rubberwood lumbers is a complex transport phenomenon for realistic modeling and simulation. To decouple this complexity, researchers usually divide their research into two parts.

Biochar‐based fertilizers improve nutrient use efficiency in sunflower grown on a subtropical tidal soil

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Improving fertilizer use efficiency is essential for reducing environmental pollution, sustaining agricultural production, and maximizing the economic profitability of crop production systems. This study tested the hypothesis that the formulation strategy of biochar‐based fertilizers, rather than nutrient addition alone, is associated with ...
