Old Friend, New Face - Case Study
I n July, 2012, Door County Cooperative, Sturgeon Bay, WI, needed to replace the 3,000 bph grain dryer at its Shirley Feed Mill at De Pere, WI. Dairy customers needed feed, and an above average corn harvest was ready to be harvested in ...

Features of small maize milling machine
1. The small-scale maize milling process equipment produced by ABC Machinery adopts dry-method corn dehulling and degerming technology, and the de-cleaning rate of husk and embryo reaches 90%. It is the flour mill with the smallest area, the highest degree of automation, the least investment, and the widest processing range in China. All corn processing procedures are completed at one time. 2. ...

A small plant with great success - case study
The farm-based biogas plant operated by the Wienken family in Augustenfeld (near Löningen) is the first plant of its size built by bwe. Originally, the farm's operator had planned to install a straw heating element. However, since the input materials are available on the farm itself in their entirety, the decision to implement a biogas plant designed by bwe was obvious. One decisive aspect ...

Growth analysis of biomass production in sole-crop and double-crop corn systems
Increased biomass productivity could be achieved through double-cropping if extended growth duration could be realized with minimal reductions in growth efficiency relative to sole-cropping. To test this hypothesis, functional growth analysis was used to assess the relative importance of photosynthetic duration and efficiency in determining biomass production by sole-crop corn (Zea mays L.; SC) ...

Nitrogen, tillage, and crop rotation effects on carbon dioxide and methane fluxes from irrigated cropping systems
Received for publication December 15, 2008. Long-term effects of tillage intensity, N fertilization, and crop rotation on carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) flux from semiarid irrigated soils are poorly understood. We evaluated effects of: (i) tillage intensity [no-till (NT) and conventional moldboard plow tillage (CT)] in a continuous corn rotation; (ii) N fertilization levels [0–246 kg N ...

Improving the fermentation characteristics of corn through agronomic and processing practices
This study determined the influence of corn (Zea mays L.) hybrids, N availability, grain harvest moisture, and drying temperatures on dry-mill ethanol production. Six hybrids, ranging from 92 to 108 d in relative maturity (RM), were planted at two locations over 2 yr. One of four N fertilizer treatments were applied. Grain was hand-harvested at grain moistures of 20 and 25%. Grain was dried to ...
