“…To avoid this problem, a new coal moisture control technology was proposed where the inert superheated steam was used as the drying medium to dry the coking coal into the required moisture content. The superheated steam was already used for drying of timber, foodstuffs, biomass, etc and its merits reported includes remarkable energy saving effect, good drying quality, high heat and mass transfer efficiency, no fire and explosion hazard [4][5][6][7][8][9][10].…”

Abstract. To avoid the fire and explosion danger in the current coking coal moisture control technology, a new coal moisture control technology was proposed in this paper where the superheated steam was used as the drying medium. A self-developed lab scale superheated steam drying experimental setup was constructed and the coal moisture control experiments were carried out. Experimental results showed that the superheated steam can be used as drying medium to reduce the coal moisture from initial 11.9% into the required 6% successfully. Super heated steam temperature,the thickness of coking coal are the key governing parameter in the drying process. Under this experimental condition,when super heated steam temperature increased from 130°C to 190°C，the drying time of coking coal was shortened from 6min to only 1.5 min. The superheated steam was promising for developing a fast, energy saving coking coal moisture control technology.

“…This banana is classified as climacteric fruit in which its quality easily degenerates due to environmental factors. To be optimally consumed, preservation techniques are important and can be done either by using traditional method or ionizing radiation [1][2]. Gamma rays are one of the most frequently used ionizing radiation, as they have the nature of ionization when they pass through a material.…”

Abstract. An exposure to Ambon banana (Musa Acuminata) samples has been done by using X-rays with current, voltage and exposure time are control parameters. This study aimed to determine storage ability of the post-harvest sample. Five samples were exposured by x-rays with the dose of (3-5)x 10 -14 Gy. The samples were stored at room temperature. Their mass and physical condition (color and smell) were evaluated every 3 days. It was found that the control sample which was not exposured by X-ray was ripe in the sixth day indicated by the yellow color and good smell of the banana. Meanwhile, the samples which were exposured by (3 -5)x 10 -14 Gy doze of X-ray looked fresher and still had green color. These samples showed their ripening in the ninth day and their mass decrease was (12-13)% which is lower than the control sample. The preservation of banana can be done through low-dose X-ray exposure.
