The current work focused on the intermediate pyrolysis of Bambara Groundnut Shells (BGS-
G1), Sweet Sorghum Stalk (SSS), and Shea Nutshells (SNS). These feedstocks are readily …

Sal (Shorea robusta) seed is a nontimber forest product, mainly processed for its oil. This oil
is used in various food and nonfood industries. Prior to extraction of oil, sal seeds are …

Cashew nut centrifugal shelling machine was designed and constructed. Shelling efficiency
and whole kernel recovery was evaluated for hot-oil roasted nuts on the machine. The …

Composites are fabricating by reinforcing waste bambara nut shell powder (BNSP) as a bio-
filler into an epoxy resin matrix. The composite is fabricated by varying the mass fractions of …

Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranean (L) Verdc) is an indigenous African crop. In South
Africa, the crop is grown by rural subsistence farmers. This crop is classified as a drought …

The number of impeller slots, slot angle (angulations), and rotational speed are some of the
operational parameters that influence kernel yield of centrifugal impact nut shellers. The …

A centrifugal Bambara groundnut pod shelling machine was earlier designed and
constructed to crack various sizes and varieties of Bambara groundnut. The sheller was …

This paper is aimed at investigating the use of Bambaranut shell powder as reinforcing
material in polymer matrix for structural board production and to investigate its effect on the …

The traditional method of shelling of Canavalia pods is manually, labour intensive and
tedious. To realize the mechanized shelling operation and improve the shelling efficiency in …

This study evaluated the influence of drum speed, moisture content, and feed rate on the
performance indices of groundnut sheller using Ex-Dakar groundnut variety. Response …
