ABSTRACT:
A method of separating the components contained in agricultural by-products is disclosed. A set of parallel electrodes encased in a plastic panel and energized by an A.C. power supply is used to create an undulating traveling wave electric field. A voltage charge is first applied to the individual components. The voltage is then increased to effect levitation and movement of the components in opposite directions which results in separation. The voltage is cycled between charging and separating voltages to move the components over a distance for collection and recovery.
