USE OF A MODIFIED DRYING MEDIUM TO PREVENT DISCOLOURATION OF RADIATA PINE SAPWOOD DURING KILN DRYING
Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2006 Wood darkening and kiln brown stain (KBS) in kiln drying has caused significant economic loss to the wood processing industry which. Although extensive studies have been performed, feasible drying techniques have not yet been developed to economically ...

Accelerating the kiln drying of oak
, 1980 Abstract : Reducing kiln-drying time for oak lumber can reduce energy requirements as well as reduce lumber inventories. In this work, 1-inch northern red oak and white oak were kiln-dried from green by a combination of individual accelerating techniques--presurfacing, presteaming, accelerated and smooth schedule, and high-temperature drying below 18 ...

Solar drying of uruguayan red gum
Innotec, 2011 he use of solar energy as an alternative to non-renewable energy sources has been widely researched in the last decades. Compared to air drying, solar drying kilns can better control the drying process, resulting in a higher quality of the dry wood and ...

INFLUENCE OF VARIOUS OPTIONS TO BAFFLES SETUP ON AIR VELOCITY AND ITS UNIFORMITY IN A DRYING KILN [PDF]
Pro Ligno, 2015 In this study, an experimental-based comparative analysis among different options to the baffles settup in a drying kiln was carried. The experiments consisted in measuring the air velocity in different points located at the outlet face of stacks.

A Numerical Assessment of the Air Flow Behaviour in a Conventional Compact Dry Kiln
Journal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2015 Convective drying is the most common drying strategy used in timber manufacturing industries in the developing world. In convective drying, the reduction rate of the moisture content is directly affected by the flow topology in the inlet and exit plenums

Evaluation of kiln-drying schedules for wild cherry wood (Cerasus avium)
Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2014 Wild cherry wood (Cerasus avium) lumber with a nominal thickness of 5 cm from Duzce region in Turkey was dried through conventional kiln drying using two different programs which are unprotective drying schedules, and protective drying schedules. The aim

Wood colour related to kiln drying
, 2000 Raised temperature in artificial drying has led to some changes of wood products such as colour and strength etc. For special treatment of wood-products with clearly modified properties, among them colour, is often high temperature and steam used industrially.
