View MorePost-harvest drying of shelled corn grain requires large amounts of fossil fuel energy. In 2004, it was estimated that the upper Midwest consumed more than $1.4 billion of fossil fuels to dry $19.7 billion of corn grain. Over the long term, drying corn with fossil fuels may become cost prohibitive due to limited fuel reserves. To address future energy concerns for grain dryers, this study ...

Stover had a very low moisture content (6.83 ± 0.17%), a gross calorific value (GCV) of 18.57 MJ/kg of dry matter (±0.32 MJ/kg DM) and an ash content of 5.88% (±1.15%). Small stover bales (8.83 ± 0.90 kg) were placed manually in the upper combustion chamber at a rate of

View MoreMay 17, 2021 The best way to gently dry corn is to treat the grain when it’s still attached to the cob.In this way the most delicate part of the grain remains attached to the cob and remains protected throughout the drying process. This type of drying is delicate and of high quality, but it takes time and is more laborious than drying the grain.In fact, with an industrial grain dryer the corn
View MoreApr 03, 2019 Since the harvest index of corn (the ratio of grain to total plant biomass is usually near 0.50, the ratio of grain to stover in corn is close to 1:1. Thus, a crop that yields 150 bu/acre or 7,100 pounds of dry matter (150 bushels x 56 lb/bushel x 0.845 lb dry matter/pound) will likely yield a similar amount of stover.
