Methods of experimental studies of the process of drying bird droppings in a drum dryer

Abstract

Purpose. Development of the program and methods of carrying out experimental studies of the process of drying avian manure to determine the structural-technological and energy parameters of drum dryer. Methods. Methods of mathematical statistics, synthesis and analysis, description and modeling were used. Results. Presents the application of mathematical methods, in particular mathematical planning, which will allow to evaluate the role of influential factors; to obtain a mathematical model of the drying process and to determine the optimal conditions for its parameters and modes of operation. Conclusions. The technique of experimental studies of the process of drying chicken manure using a drum dryer allows to create a process model with minimal cost. The necessary equipment and methods for processing the obtained experimental data are presented. The mathematical method of planning is given, the levels and intervals of variation of the current factors are determined. Keywords: dryer, drum, litter, research methodology, biofertilizer.
