May 2021 / 9 issues facing the world. Following water, sand, gravel, and aggre- gate taken together constitute the second- most exploited resource on earth, and the annual usage has increased in the past few decades to 40 to 50 billion metric tons per year. The trend is expected to continue as key drivers such as urbanization, population growth, and infrastruc- ture development increase. The GSO also notes that a number of international organizations, gov- ernments, journalists, civil society groups, research centers, and companies have acknowledged the importance of implementing improved sustainability practices when it comes to sand extraction. While sand and gravel are avail- able in many different locations across the globe, the sand required whiteness, and percentage of bro- ken rice grains using complex machine-learning algorithms. Bühler supplies various process- ing technology and equipment. The company specializes in grains and food solutions, consumer foods solutions, and advanced materials for vehicles and buildings. Sand resource governance in flux as sand usage soars globally According to reports from CNBC, the BBC, and other organizations, including the United Nations Global Sand Observatory (GSO), which is a program led by the United Nations Environment Pro- gramme's (UNEP's) GRID Geneva, the global use of sand resources is one of the greatest sustainability Bühler finalizing integrated rice mills with AI, machine- learning technology Bühler AG, Uzwil, Switzerland, has been working to build a digitally connected rice mill. The integrated rice mill setup has a connected sorter, whitener, and sensors. The rice mill also will include artificial intelligence (AI) and machine- learning technology to help reduce waste, save energy, and consis- tently provide quality product. The first company to use the new mill is Swiss rice miller Riseria Tav- erne SA, which is testing Bühler's equipment. Rice processors face the challenge of managing huge vari- ations in input with fewer skilled operators. The rice mill's sensors keep track of essential parameters that include shine, smoothness, USA 1-800-263-7782 | CANADA 1-800-263-1942 SEALED GRAVITY DIVERTER S E R I E S L SLIDE GATE S E R I E S E PREVENTS PRODUCT CROSS CONTAMINATION 2 OR 3 WAY CONFIGURATIONS SQUARE OR ROUND INLET/OUTLETS 3 WEEK STANDARD DELIVERY USED IN VACUUM OR DILUTE PHASE PRESSURE SYSTEMS CONVEY PELLETS OR POWDERS WITHOUT PRODUCT LEAKAGE 2 WEEK STANDARD DELIVERY
