Numerous number of Engelberg based husking mills give milling services to locals/farmers
without further processing (polishing and sorting). Such services include fine grains varieties
and bold grain local varieties with higher percentage of broken rice and poor rice quality (Fig.
2 and Fig. 3). Usually farmers/ consumer accept the quality given by the mills as no other
options and they do further cleaning in house.

For milling fine grains varieties, millers usually use different sieves, which is narrower
compared to the one that is being used with local varieties (Fig. 4).
Fig. 4 Different sieves which are being used in milling fine grain rice
in old Engelberg mills
Some millers who normally give more attention to steaming, soaking time, cleaning and
drying their crop in moderate temperature (=<40 C º and in shade), can get higher milling
quality with better market price.
On the other hand, some owners of Engelberg mills are doing milling and are getting further
required processes i.e. polishing and sorting from automatic or semi-automatic rice mills.
Auto/semi auto mills charge them from 0.7 to 2 BDT/kg for polishing and sorting, in addition
to transportation cost. But in this case, the small-scale millers can sell their rice with price near
to the market price of auto/semi-auto mills (2-5 TK/kg less). Further processes of polishing
and sorting of rice are being done based on the availability and time of auto/semi-auto mills
e.g. some time they are doing the service for small millers only at night, or maybe they refuse
because of poor traditional processes that small mills are following and can affect their
machines. Also, the small-scale Engelberg millers partially offer the sorted-polished rice under
their own brand in local markets or can work as initial rice processors for auto/semi-auto
mills. The different scenarios of Engelberg’ operational modes can be summarized as in Fig.
5.

Fig. 5 Different Engelberg milling services
Many attempts have been made to improve the existing Engelberg mills, including the de-
husking machine that was developed by BRRI, where a 4 kW 3 phase motor at 1440 rpm was
used to operate rubber roll husker to separate husk from paddy and 38 cm diameter exhaust
blower with 1.5 kW motor at 2840 rpm used for removing husk. The capacity of developed
de-husker was 500 kg/h and hulling efficiency was more than 90% in one pass. The head rice
recovery was increased by 1-2% due to use of de-husker. In addition, bran and husk can be
used for extracting bran oil and making briquette respectively (BRRI Annual Report, 2015).
IRRI with its partnership with national institutes, private companies and importers is exploring
more options that can change small-scale old rice milling system to better ones.

To validate the milling capacity of different milling systems and compare it with the amount
of milled rice, the following table (table 4) was generated based on the potential operation
(week/year) cited by Sustainable Development Networking Programme (SDNP) (SDNP,
2016).

From Table 4, milling capacities of registered mills in Bangladesh in 2006 and 2014 were 12.3
and 19.4 million ton/year respectively which are much less than the total milled rice produced
in same years. The difference between the milled amount and the capacity of rice mills may
come due to the inaccurate numbers of installed rice mills within the country. There is large
number of unregistered rice mills has been observed around the country, most of these mills
are mobile husking mills (Engleberg mobile type), e.g. in Barisal division, out of 551 running
husking mills observed in 2016, 323 mills were mobile based Engleberg type with percentage
Page | 9
of 59 % (personal communication and survey in 2016). Same scenario can be found in all
divisions. Another reason for mismatching the milled amount with the mills capacities is the
low potential operation (week/year) and the milling capacity which maybe more than cited by
current sources.

clockwise, and the other counters clockwise at a faster speed. This provides a shearing action
that strips off the husk. The rubber on the roles is flexible and does not crush the grain. Rice
husk and broken rice are removed from the husked material at the winnowing section which is
referred to as aspirator. In the aspirator the material is divided into a mixture of brown rice,
unhusked whole grains, and rice husk. The husked material is taken out by suction of the
aspirator fan. After passing through the rubber roll husker, the brown rice and unhusked paddy
grain will move the next step.
Brown rice huller system uses the speed difference on the rubber roll, so the construction will
put on top two pieces of rubber roll just below the hopper. Husk separator using air blower
system, so the construction will accommodate air flow toward a brown rice and husk are out
of rubber roll. The machine is equipped with air duct which serves to suck out husk of the
rubber rolls and to discharge the bran from the machine in second stage, Fig 14 shows rice and
byproduct movements in compacted rice mill.

Milling yield and milled rice quality
Milling yield is a term that refers to milling quality and used in reference to percentage of
head rice which is routinely expressed as a ratio, with the numerator being the head rice yield
and the denominator the milled rice yield. For example, a milling yield of 55/70 would
indicate a head rice of 55 percent, a milled rice of 70 percent and a broken rice yield of 15
percent (the difference between milled rice and head rice). It can be calculated based on below
equation. Numerically, milling yield = (weight of white rice/ weight of paddy) x 100. Head
rice comprises milled rice kernels that are at least three-fourths the original length of the
kernel; often referred to as “whole” kernels. Percentage of head rice = (weight of whole grains
/ weight of paddy sample) x 100, head rice recovery = (weight of whole milled grains/ weight
of all milled grains), and percentage of broken rice = (weight of broken grains/ weight of
paddy sample) x 100.
Two different varieties under two different conditions [BRRI-dhan50 (parboiled and un-
parboiled) and local variety- BRRI-dhan28 (parboiled and un-parboiled)] were the base to
evaluate the new installed compacted rice mill, electricity as power required was estimated,
cost analysis has been done based on available data and different cost elements. Below critical
list of factors have been noted and were considered during rice mill testing.
1- Duration that rice is milled, more milling time lead to decrease in surface lipid content,
head rice and milling yield, because as milling progresses, more of the surface of both
head rice and broken kernels is removed, which would decrease the mass of both
fractions.
2- MC at the time of milling, it is a critical factor.
3- Pressure in milling unit (rollers), speed of rolls, clearance between fixed and movable
rolls.
4- The rice cultivar or cultivar mix, rice mixing affects milling behavior where rice
cultivars inherently differ in physical attributes, including the bran thickness and kernel
shape, size and surface topography. Mixing rice in mills usually results in reduced
milling capacity, excessive breakage, lower milled rice recovery, and reduced head rice
yields. (Siebenmorgen, 2013).
5- Rollers differential peripheral speed.
6- Miller skill: important, the use of good milling equipment and good quality paddy does
not guarantee a high quality product if the miller is not skilled enough to use the mill.
7- Immature rice: immature rice kernels are very slender and chalky and result in the
production of excessive bran, broken grains and brewer’s rice.
8- Dockage, includes chaff, stones, weed seeds, soil, rice straw, stalks and other foreign
matter, these, impurities generally come from the field or from the drying floor.
9- Hopper feed opening to be closed at loading and before operating the machine.
10- Using feed rate control should be done carefully and slowly, so that paddy can be
entered to rubber roll with proper amounts.
Page | 13
11- Adjusting distance between rolls (clearance) is the most critical issue for better milling,
adjusting rollers clearance is important to match the thickness of paddy and varieties. If
distance between roll is too large will cause a lot of paddy were not husked, while
distance between roll that is too small will cause a lot of broken rice.
12- Adjusting air flow, air speed that is too large will cause a lot of brown rice sucked,
whereas if the wind speed is too small, it will cause a lot of husk that not sucked (with
brown rice together).
Milling test results
Milling recovery
Using the old steel huller (Engelberg huller) with un-parboiled rice always gives lower milling
recovery. Data in table 6 and Fig. 15 showed that the milling recovery was less by 14 % and
21 % when un-parboiled BRRI-dhan50 and un-parboiled BRRI-dhan28 milled in Engelberg
respectively compared to the parboiled rice for same varieties. Using the new rice mill proved
the advantage of using such machines in milling un-parboiled rice. Using new compacted rice
mill gave higher milling recovery with un-parboiled paddy with 61.47 % for BRRI-dhan50
and 57 % for BRRI-dhan28 compared to 56.93 % and 51.50 % for same varieties milled in
Engelberg huller.

With parboiled rice varieties, milling recovery of Engelberg huller is almost same for the two
varieties BRRIdhan-50 and BRRI-dhan28 with (1% difference), while in new compacted rice
mill, the milling recovery was higher with BRRI-dhan28. Using new rice mill with parboiled
BRRI-dhan28 increased the milling recovery by 3% (table 6 and Fig. 15.).

Milling capacities
Minimum milling capacities recorded with Engelberg mill were 223.23 and 241.93 kg/h for
Un-parboiled BRRI-dhan28 and Un-parboiled BRRI-dhan50 respectively, while minimum
capacities recorded with the new compacted rice mill were 212.59 256.89 kg/h with Un-
parboiled BRRI-dhan50 and un-parboiled BRRI-dhan28 respectively. Both milling systems
gave higher milling capacity in parboiled varieties, but, the new rice mill gave notable higher
milling capacity of parboiled BRRI-dhan50 which was higher by 61% more than the old
huller. For both un-parboiled varieties and parboiled BRRI-dhan28 and, no significant
differences were recorded in milling capacities for both machines. Average milling capacities
are listed in table 7 and Fig 16.

Cost analysis
Both fixed and variable costs have been calculated for new installed compacted rice mill and
the old rice Engleberg huller. Major cost components were interest on capital, depreciation,
tax insurance and housing for fixed cost, and were repair and maintenance, fuel, and labour for
variable cost (details of cost components in table 11). Standard parameters have been used to
calculate the total hourly operating cost and cost of 1000 kg production (table 12).
Cost analysis showed that the cost required per 1000 kg was 335.51 BDT which was lower by
27 % than the old Engleberg rice huller because of lower electricity consumption and higher
production rate. However, ownership and cost per hour still lower still lower in old Engleberg
rice huller than the new installed rice mill.

1- Engelberg (old husking mills) strongly exist, their share in market size is being
reduced but still contribute large proportion of total productions with providing milling
services to locals/farmers with or without further processing. However, changing such
mills is required.
2- At least 4.5 % and 5.6 % increase in milling recovery can be achieved by using new
rubber rolls rice mill in milling un-parboiled BRRI-dhan50 and un-parboiled BRRI-
dhan28 respectively. Also, in parboiled rice, using the new rice mill can increase the
milling recovery as in the case of parboiled BRRI-dhan28.
3- Using the new compacted rice mill has reduced the percentage of broken rice by 24
and 11.5 % in un-parboiled and parboiled BRRI-dhan50 respectively. For other
varieties, also using the new machine has reduced the percentage of broken rice by 92
and 33 % in un-parboiled and parboiled BRRI-dhan28. Also, using the new rice mill
showed advantage of huge increasing in head rice percentage, especially with un-
parboiled varieties. In parboiled varieties, the increase in head rice was limited to 4.3
and 2.7 % for BRRI-dhan50 and BRRI-dhan28 respectively.
4- Using new rubber rollers based mills can add value to small-scale rice millers, where
producing bran as a separate component can increase their income.
5- The advantages of using the new rubber roller mill were in milling the newly
introduced varieties such as BRRI-dhan50, this is matching with the efforts that started
to disseminate premiere quality rice with proper processing steps along their value
chain.
6- Cost required to produce 1000 kg was less when we used the new installed rice mill.
This is considering a good indicator for small-scale rice miller to adapt such machines.
Page | 20
However more studies are needed to track the long time operating of the machine
under commercialized schemes.
7- Rice millers expressed their interest to get same capacity machines for higher quality
milled rice for local markets, however, higher capacity rubber rolls mills (1.5 to 3
ton/h) are needed as cleared by rice millers who target wider market access and
branding for their products.
