Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Vertical Drier for Seed Cotton This process Of drying seed cotton is used successfully not only in the vertical drier designed by Department engineers and described in this publication, but also in other types Of driers on the market. In the experiments by which the Government process was devel oped it was found that to assure satisfactory ginning, the moisture content Of the damp or wet seed cotton should be reduced to such an extent that the moisture in the lint would Obtain ginning results like those produced by moisture in lint from seed cotton containing 8 to 12 percent moisture. In most cases this condition was Obtained by removing about 3 pounds Of moisture per 100 pounds Of damp seed cotton. The experiment also showed heated air to be the most practical drying medium for this material. Many variable factors influence the functioning Of a cotton drier. Each design Of drying apparatus produces individual drying effects, varying with the combination Of influences Of hot-blast volume, the period Of exposure, and the temperature Of the drying air as it enters the drier.
