Question

Match the size reduction equipment in Column I with the method of operation in Column II:

• A. P-2; Q-4; R-1; S-3
• B. P-3; Q-1; R-2; S-4
• C. P-4; Q-1; R-2; S-3
• D. P-3; Q-4; R-2; S-1

Hint:

Size reduction methods can be classified based on the mechanism of operation: Impact, Attrition, Cutting, and Compression.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Let's match the size reduction equipment with their corresponding methods: - P. Hammer mill operates by Impact (option 2), so \( P-2 \).
- Q. Burr mill operates by Attrition (option 4), so \( Q-4 \).
- R. Crushing rolls operate by Compression (option 1), so \( R-1 \).
- S. Rotary knife operates by Cutting (option 3), so \( S-3 \).
Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
