Abstract: Excerpts from the report: The goal of the ginning process is to produce a bale of ginned lint with a minimum of foreign matter in it and with maximum retention of the inherent fiber properties that were present in the cotton as delivered to the ginnery. The objectives of this experiment were: (1) To determine whether operating lint cleaners in split-stream fashion could produce lint of grades comparable to those obtained by operating the lint cleaners in series. (2) To determine whether the fiber and spinning properties of cotton were different when two lint cleaners were operated in split-stream and in series. (3) To determine whether cotton passing through one lint cleaner in split-stream operation was different from cotton passing through one lint cleaner in conventional operation.
