Abstract

Moisture content of seed cotton has an important effect on cotton processing and the quality of its final products quality. At present, cotton processing enterprises dry seed cotton with hot air drying, which is difficult to control and results in high energy consumption and serious pollution. Experiments of combined microwave-hot air drying of seed cotton were designed and the feasibility of it was proved. A three-factor and three-level orthogonal regression rotation experiment of seed cotton drying was designed to study the influences of hot-air temperature, initial moisture content of seed cotton and power density, and order of the three factors- initial moisture content of seed cotton > power density > hot air temperature was concluded. A control model of seed cotton drying was established to find out a new process route for seed cotton drying and provide a theoretical basis for the implementation of combined microwave-hot air drying of seed cotton.
