SIZING OF THE DEPERICARP SYSTEM

You need to calculate the following ;
  • the fibre volume
  • the air required for transporting the fibre
  • the separation velocity of the fibre and the nuts
  • the separation column and the transport duct dimensions
  • mass flow rate of air
  • the selection of the fan with right volume flow rate and the choice of corresponding motor

NUTRIENT CONTENT OF EMPTY FRUIT BUNCHES

  • Nitrogen (N) - 0.44
  • Phosphorous (P) - 0.144
  • Potassium (K) - 2.24
  • Magnesium (Mg) - 0.36
  • Calcium (Ca) - 0.36

# Composition as a percentage to dry matter

RATE OF EMPTY BUNCH APPLICATION

  • circle mulching of newly planted and immature palms - 15 to 25 t per ha per yr
  • mature palms on coastal soil - 25 to 40 t per ha per yr
  • mature palm on inland soils - 35 to 70 t per ha per yr
