Abstract
The optimum utilization of all ingredients of cotton i.e. fibre, cotton seed, cotton stalk has become the necessity for survival in the competitive field of cotton growing and processing. The reduction of electrical power cost and to mechanize the operations in a way that manpower component is reduced to the minimum for complete cotton value processing chain has become necessity due to scarcity of manpower and increase in the price of electricity rates in different countries. The continuous efforts are being made to address these issues by the manufacturers and scientific community and various new equipments/systems have been introduced in the recent year in the journey of modernization/improvement of various operations in the cotton ginning and cotton seed processing. The goal is to achieve the optimization in the following areas: 1. The cotton fibre will be ginned in a way that it retains best natural fibre parameters i.e. maximum length, natural luster, and other natural parameters as they are available on the cotton boll when it is grown on plant in the field. 2. To fully utilize the various components of seed cotton i.e. cotton lint, cotton seed, hull, kernel, and oil. 3. To fully utilize the cotton stalk etc. to make various items such as wood pallets, particle boards, biogas, energy generation & compost making.
