Effects of high-temperature drying on bending strength of red pine poles
The current U.S. wood pole standard, ANSI O5.1 (1), allows certain species to be kiln-dried at a temperature higher than 170?F (76.7?C) without a penalty in strength reduction. Red pine […]

Emissions of monoterpenes and VOCs during drying of sawdust in a spouted bed
Emissions of volatile hydrocarbons are considered an environmental problem and a health problem. A wood-drying process is a source of volatile organic compound (VOC)emissions. Emissions of monoterpenes, as well as […]

End Coating Effects on High-Temperature-Dried Yellow-Poplar
The effectiveness of end coatings in reducing the amount of end checking in high-temperature-dried yellow-poplar was investigated. End coatings have been shown beneficial at temperatures below 180? F; however, very […]
