HOW TO PRODUCE SCHOOL CHALK

SCHOOL CHALK PRODUCTION


Let me start by saying that school chalk production is a very simple and
straight forward process. Anybody can learn how to do it and apply it
successfully without supervision. For this reason, school chalk production
has been incorporated into the curriculum of almost every skill acquisition
center in Nigeria.
School chalk production can be done in the comfort of your home. You don’t
need to establish a big factory. The major equipment for school chalk
production is the Chalk Mould which is primarily used for molding the chalk
to give it its characteristic shape, size, and length.

RAW MATERIALS NEEDED FOR SCHOOL CHALK PRODUCTION


The Plaster of Paris or as it is generally called “POP” is the major raw
material for school chalk production. Plaster of Paris (POP) is a white
powder; scientifically called “Calcium Carbonate” that when mixed with
water, forms a quick-hardening paste. It is used in the arts for sculpting
and making casts, and in medicine for molding casts around broken
limbs. Below is a picture of powdered POP

Lubricants: this is another important raw material for school chalk


production. It could be any cooking oil or coconut oil, mixed with
Kerosene. It is used for lubricating the chalk mould to prevent the POP
from sticking to it.

Clean Water: water is a very important element in school chalk


production, because it is used for mixing all the ingredients.

Ultramarine blue (optional) ultramarine blue is used to give the chalk a


dark blue or sky blue colour depending on its concentration. If you intend
to produce only white chalk, then you wouldn’t need to add ultramarine
blue.

MACHINERY AND EQUIPMENT NEEDED

1) Chalk Mould: this is the major equipment used in school chalk


production. It is either made of rubber or metal but usually with a wooden
frame. But there are some chalk moulds that are completely made of metal.
The moulds defer according to the number of holes or cavities they have.
Some could have 240 holes or even more. The number of holes or cavities
a chalk mould has determines the number of chalk sticks it can produce at
a time. Below is a picture of a typical chalk mould for the benefit of those
who have never seen one before.
2) Scraper: this is a flat metal object used for scraping the surface of the
chalk mould.
3) Paint Brush: this is used for applying the lubricant on the mould before
filling it up with POP

4) Dryer: The dryer is primarily used for drying the chalk after it has been
removed from the mould. The drier is electrically operated and is mostly
used in large scale school chalk production. For small scale school chalk
production, sun drying is perfectly okay to save cost.
5) Hand Glove: This is basically used for protecting the hand during the
mixing of the POP and water.
6) Packaging Materials: these could include nylon bags and branded
carton packs.

METHOD OF PREPARATION
Pour some POP into a container, preferably a bucket, and add water.
Use your hand to mix the POP with the water until it forms a paste.
Using the paint brush, lubricate the surface of the chalk mould properly
with a solution of cooking oil + kerosene, to prevent the POP from
sticking to the mould.
Arrange the mould, then pour the pasty mixture into it and allow it for
15 to 20 minutes to solidify before loosening the mould.
When you are sure that the chalk has formed, loose the mould and
collect the chalk produced for sun drying or through mechanical dryer.
After sun drying for 2 to 3 days, package the chalk in branded carton
packs and your school chalk is ready for sale.

HOW TO PRODUCE LAUNDRY STARCH

Starch is just one of the several by-products that can be extracted from
cassava. Although it also serves as staple food for people who hail from
the south-south region of Nigeria, it is noted for its use in laundry and
treatment of fabrics. The use of starch, whether for domestic or commercial
purposes has, however, created a significant market for several Nigerians
who are into the business. Starch can also be used as animal feed in
addition to being used for preserving and maintaining some types of
fabrics, especially linen material and Ankara.
Even though laundry starch production has been on for several decades,
only recently did it emerge in a new form of cold water starch. Hitherto,
the varieties of laundry starch found in the marketplace include packaged
spray starch and the dry powder starch prepared with hot water. The cold
water starch is a new innovation that allows starch to be used for fabrics
without requiring hot water.
All you need to do when you want to use cold water starch is to simply add
the quantity you want to use to a proportionate quantity of water, then put
the clothes or fabrics you wish to starch in there and you spread to dry.
Cold water starch production is a lucrative business and is expanding by
the day. What you need to go into the business is minimal capital and the
technical know –how. This amount is mainly for the purchasing of the raw
materials needed for the production, which are mainly cassava or other
carbohydrate-based tubers and grains.

MATERIALS AND CHEMICALS NEEDED


Cassava
Water
PVA
Perfume

PRODUCTION PROCESS
You buy cassava from the market.
Mix with warm water to allow it to dissolve properly.
Allow it to cool down.
Add PVA and stir properly.
Mix with ordinary water.
Add fragrance.
It’s ready for packaging.

PRODUCING STARCH FOR HOME USE.


You buy cassava from the market.
Mix with warm water to allow it to dissolve properly.
Allow it to cool down.
Add a little bit of fragrance, if you want.
Then, transfer to a bottle.

HOW TO USE THE STARCH.


For best results, shake before each use.
A little goes a long way, so use sparingly.

HOW TO PACKAGE YOUR COLD WATER STARCH.


Since, it is cold water starch, it is better you package it in large quantities
(in kegs and small drums). You can use various sizes of kegs depending on
the customers or organizations you want to sell to.

HOW TO PRODUCE HAIR CONDITIONAL


AND NATURAL HAIR CONDITIONAL
Conditioners are additive which enhance the
feel,appearance,fullness,lubricity,reflectance and general manageability of
hair. Conditioning helps protect your hair from harsh weather condition by
re-moisturing dry hair and forming a protective layer around hair shaft,
which helps to reduce split ends and breakage.
The benefit of producing your own conditioners is that you can customize
them to meet end needs.
Some of the ingredients used in the production of synthetic conditioner and
their functions are:
Clodagh wax - this is used for holding the hair,it has less chance of
drying out and aids in easy styling of hair.
Acetyl alcohol - this is a fatty substance produced by heating coconut
oil and palm oil. it's the major component of hair conditioner which allows
the conditioner to spread easily over the hair. Without it,the conditioner
would probably separate out in the bottle (into oil and water).
Shea butter - this ingredient is rich in moisture (moisturizer, vitamin
and healing the hair and scalp) - it promotes thick, healthy and lustrous
strands of hair.
Paraffin oil - used as a solvent and lubricant
Dehyquart A - it is a quaternary compound that is preferably used as
a conditioning additive; it has a positive effect on wet and dry
combability. It is clear,yellowish liquid with a characteristic inherent
odour.
Petroleum jelly - This works by creating a sealing barrier between your
body cells, which keeps moisture and speeds up your skin's natural
recovery from dryness, helping it heal from within. Its occlusive function
also allows it to protect dry, cracked skin and minor cuts, scrapes, and
burns.

Industrial camphor - this ingredients is used in conditioner to treat


injuries or scalp pains by promoting blood flow in the area affected. It
could lead to irritation and reddening of skin when used at high amount.
Menthol - this gives a soothing sensation
Fragrance - it gives a percievable pleasant smell to the conditioner.
Preservative - ingredient used to prevent germs and decomposition
of the conditioner. It also prevents various health risks that accompany
contamination by germs and bacteria.
Water- used as solvent .

Quantity of ingredients required to produce synthetic conditioner.

1/2 cup Clodagh wax


1 cup Acetyl alcohol
1 tablespoon Petroleum jelly
1 tablespoon Shea butter
1 cup Paraffin oil
1/2 cup Dehyquart A
Fragrance (as desired)
2 tablespoon Menthol
2 tablespoon Industrial camphor
1 tablespoon Preservative

PRODUCTION PROCESS FOR SYNTHETIC HAIR


CONDITIONAL
Add 1 cup of Distilled Water to a sauce pan and place on your stove
top on medium heat; while this is heating up,measure out all of your
other ingredients in a separate bowl.
Add clodagh wax to your heated content and allow it to dissolve
Add acetyl alcohol and allow to dissolve too
Add paraffin oil,shea butter,and petroleum jelly and give them a good
stir. It will take at least 5-10 minutes to melt so just keep stirring
occasionally using a whisk until your clodagh wax has completely
melted.
Add dehyquart A and drop the pan from heat immediately,
Once your wax,petroleum jelly and acetyl alcohol has completely melted,
take off the pan from heat and mix using a stick blender or your whisk;
you are going to mix until your mixture no longer separates. It will have
a milky appearance and not separate into oil and water .
When you have stopped mixing, at this point you will add your
preservative, fragrance
,menthol and industrial camphor and stir till it becomes cool. Once your
preservative and fragrance has been incorporated, you are ready to
pour into your bottles.
finished...Congratulations! Your conditioner will thicken as it cools. Thick,
rich, creamy, nourishing hair conditioner, made by you!

CARROT OIL

MATERIALS

Veggie peeler

Hand grater or food processor

Crock pot

Fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth

Glass mason jar

Carrot Oil Ingredients

-2 organically or home grown carrots

-olive, coconut, sunflower, or sesame oil, to cover

Carrot Oil Instructions

Wash and peel the skin of the carrots

Grate carrots with the use of a hand grater or food processor.

Place the grated carrots in a crock pot and pour the oil of your choice
to cover. Note: I used 2 1/4 cups of oil or 18 ounces.
On your crock pot’s lowest setting, maintain a warm temperature —
infusing the oil for a full 24-72 hours. Note: I use the “warm”
temperature setting on my crock pot. Try not to allow the temperature
of the oil to rise above 100-105 degrees farenheit. You will notice the
oil becoming orange in color.

Once the infusion process is complete, pour the carrots and oil mixture
through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth and strain.

Reserve the oil and compost the carrots.

Label and store the oil in a glass mason jar in the refrigerator until
ready for use. Will keep for 6-8 months if stored properly.
