Performance Evaluation Of Ncam Dry Beans Dehulling Machine
Author(s): Ogunjirin OA, Oladipo NO, Abiodun LO and Ola OA*
Beans are from the families of legumes which are rich in protein. It has possibility of alleviating poverty and undernutrition amongst the lower-class families, because every part of cowpea is useful. The traditional method of dehulling beans (soaking in water to ease hull removal) are time consuming, hazardous and associated with lots of drudgery. This report presents the performance evaluation of NCAM developed dried beans dehulling machine. Thirty-six (36) kilogram of beans with 9.2% moisture content was used for the evaluation in which the feed regulator opening was varied. From the result obtained, it showed that the wider the feed opening, the higher the dehulling rate and the dehulling efficiency. The average capacity of the machine is 771 kg/hr. .. View more»
