✦ Synopsis

Abstract

A compact dryer for the parboiling of paddy has been described. The use of steam tubes along the circumference of the shell has made high drying rates possible. The rate of water removal is dependent on steam pressure in the tubes. Blowing of pre‐heated air through the dryer shell is necessary. The optimum drying conditions for parboiled paddy as observed in the experimental rotary dryer are: (a) the steam pressure in the tubes should be about 45 lb/in^2^ gauge; (b) the feed rate should be 150 lb/h, approximately; (c) the rotation should be about 5 rev/min; (d) the inclination of the shell should be nearly 2° to the horizontal and (e) air at a rate of 100 ft^3^/min should be blown parallel to the feed, pre‐heated to a temperature of 90°C.

## Abstract The conventional parboiling process used in the Orient consists of steeping paddy in cold or lukewarm water for 48–72 hours, steaming for 15–25 min and then drying in the sun. This process yields rice of a poor quality, and an attempt has been made to improve it by devising both batch a

## Abstract Hot soaking of paddy in the parboiling process does not significantly affect the digestibility of rice compared to ‘raw’ rice. Mechanically dried parboiled rice appears to be slightly more digestible __in vitro__ than sun‐dried parboiled rice. It is also significantly superior in thiami

## Abstract In this work, pervaporation is applied for the dehydration of industrial cyclohexane, used as a solvent and reaction medium in the manufacture of synthetic rubbers. Working with initial concentrations of water in cyclohexane within the range of 0.090–0.110 kg m^−3^, an experimental stud
