The success of the dehulling plants is determined by two parameters: The shell content in the product stream is used to evaluate quality and the nib content in the shell stream allows conclusions about economic efficiency.</p>","PeriodicalId":9912,"journal":{"name":"Chemie Ingenieur Technik","volume":"97 3","pages":"173-185"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143565296","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
