Fungal diseases cause up to 40% loss in sugarcane crop production every year. The overuse of fungicides has led to environmental health issues, and the lack of diversity in the modes of action of currently registered fungicides makes crops vulnerable to fungicide...
Scale formation in evaporator tubes and the methods applied to remove the scale have been topics of interest to sugar technologists for several decades. Although there has been considerable research in understanding the chemical characteristics of sugar mill...
Planter operators work to maintain consistent planting rates while avoiding jams and stoppages, which can be difficult to do constantly while maintaining awareness of both their machinery and their surroundings. An automated, real-time, machine-vision-based system...
The effects of three commercial corrosion inhibitors, Powerfilm 10000, Powerfilm 15000, and Nalco 2857, on condensation behaviours and surface wettability in Robert-type evaporators used in sugar manufacturing were investigated. Experiments were conducted using a...
