  • Publication number: 20240081352
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a blending method of high-quality and dual-purpose flour for bread and noodles, belonging to the technical field of flour processing. The method includes: selecting flour of a high-quality and dual-purpose wheat variety for bread and noodles as a high-quality basic flour for blending; according to a large gradient experimental design, selecting a gradient range ratio with a sedimentation value ?46.0 mL and a dough development time ?9.6 min, followed by subdividing for small gradient experiments; selecting a ratio with flour sedimentation value and dough development time that reach an ideal value to blend a large amount of flour; and making bread and noodles for scoring, followed by determining a blending ratio if a scoring result reaches an ideal value.

  • Patent number: 9734539
    Abstract: The present invention provides a coordinated coil scheduling method of multiple production lines in cold rolling area in steel plant, comprising: acquiring the information about the candidate coils to be scheduled in each of the multiple production lines in cold rolling area; building a coordinated coil scheduling model of multiple lines; obtaining the initial coordinated coil schedule of multiple lines by using a heuristic algorithm; improving the initial coordinated coil schedule in real time; and sending the improved coordinated coil schedule to the ACS of each production line. In this method, besides different production technological requirements of each coil, the cohesion relationship of different production lines are taken into account to make material supply to each equipment reasonable, and the smooth production process of coils in each of the lines is guaranteed with the changeover minimized, such that the whole efficiency of the manufacturing process is improved.
