International Classification:

A23N 5/00

US Classification:

99569

Abstract:

Aspects of the present invention relate to a system configured for separating a nut or other hard component from soft matter connected to the hard component. The system includes first and second rotary modules. The first rotary module includes a cylindrical first chamber defined by an inner surface and a first rotary assembly within the first chamber. The second rotary module is in communication with the first rotary module such that the first rotary module feeds the hard component and the pulp into the second rotary module. The second rotary module includes a cylindrical screen defining a cylindrical second chamber and a second rotary assembly disposed within the second chamber. The system may further include an infeed assembly for feeding the material into the first rotary module, and/or a discharge portion for discharging the hard component through an exit port after separation by the second rotary module.

Abstract:

Methods and systems for performing transient processes may include: providing a path and path thresholds for an operational condition as a function of progress of a transient process based on historical data of previously performed transient processes; performing the transient process in a chemical reactor using operational parameters; measuring the operational condition of the transient process as a function of the progress of the transient process; and adjusting one or more of the operational parameters during the progress of the transient process to maintain the operational condition within the path thresholds.
