Determining the moisture content of grain is an operation of particular importance at all stages of the post-harvest system. Before the harvest, for example, it permits an estimation of the degree of maturity of the grain. After threshing, it is used for deciding on methods and durations of drying. Before processing of products, it shows whether the grain is in condition for treatment. At the time of marketing, it reveals the quantity of dry matter that is being bought, and thus permits establishment of the fair sales price (water does not have the same market value as grain). Before and during storage, it helps to determine warehousing conditions and to evaluate the state of conservation of grain. 2, record 3, English, - moisture%20determination

La détermination de la teneur en eau des grains est une opération d’une importance particulière dans toutes les phases du système après-récolte. Avant la récolte, par exemple, elle permet d’apprécier l'état de maturité des grains. Après le battage, elle sert à décider des modes et des temps de séchage. Avant la transformation des produits, elle indique si les grains sont en état d’être traités. Lors de la commercialisation, elle permet de connaître la quantité de matière sèche que l'on achète, et d’établir ainsi le juste prix de vente(l'eau n’ a pas la même valeur commerciale que les grains). Avant et pendant le stockage, elle aide à décider des conditions d’entreposage et à apprécier l'état de conservation des grains. 2, record 3, French, - d%C3%A9termination%20de%20la%20teneur%20en%20eau

Decrepitation. - Some minerals, when laid upon a hot plate, decrepitate, or fly to pieces, through the unequal expansion which overcomes the cohesion of the molecules. Calcite, fluorite, and barite are examples of this. A mineral which decrepitates may be separated from one which does not by decrepitating and sifting; the latter mineral will be found on the sieve, while that which was finely decrepitated will have gone through. 3, record 4, English, - decrepitation

Séparation par décrépitation. Cette méthode tire profit du comportement particulier de certains minéraux à la chaleur. A l'échelle industrielle, ce système est utilisé uniquement pour l'enrichissement de la baryte. Lorsqu'elle est chauffée au-delà d’une certaine température(...) la baryte se brise en particules de petites dimensions, tandis que les autres espèces minéralogiques qui l'accompagnent demeurent intactes. Il suffit de cribler le matériau pour obtenir un concentré ayant la teneur commerciale. 3, record 4, French, - d%C3%A9cr%C3%A9pitation
