should not be done during the growing or rainy season since cutting actually causes some damages to young shoots and young culms, and will retard the growth and development of the residual culms.

The traditionally methods employed for the protection of bamboo are also called non-chemical methods. These include the following:

Back 6

SOAKING

CURING

SMOKING

WHITEWASHING

Front 7

In this method, the freshly cut (green) culms are put into stagnant running water or mud for several weeks. Stones or heavy objects put on the bamboo to keep them submerged in the water.

Back 7

SOAKING

Front 8

Culms that are cut at the bottom are left for some time with some branches and leaves on the clump. Because the assimilation of the leaves still goes on, the starch content in the culm is reduced and as a result, the resistance against infested by bore is increased.

Back 8

CURING

Front 9

The culms are stored above fireplaces inside houses for some time so that the smoke blackens the culm. This is thought to produce toxic agents that lead to some resistance in the culms heating also destroys the starch in the parenchyma cel

Back 9

SMOKING

Front 10

This is traditionally treatment that is used more primarily for its ornamental effect than for its preservative value. Bamboo culms are painted with slaked lime {ca (OH)2] which could delay water absorption and provide higher resistance against fungi.

What methods requiring chemical are being used for preserving bamboo?

Back 11

FUMIGATION

PROPHYLACTIC TREATMENT

BUTT TREATMENT

with methyl bromide or some other chemical is applied in Japan for insect control

Back 12

FUMIGATION

Front 13

by brushing and spraying.

Back 13

Prophylactic treatment

Front 14

in which the bottom part of a freshly cut bamboo culm with branches and leaves is placed in barrel containing a preservative. The transpiration of the leaves draws with it the solution into the vessels of the culm.

Back 14

BUTT TREATMENT

Front 15

where properly-sized culms are soaked in a solution of a water-soluble preservative for several days.

Back 15

Open tank treatment

Front 16

can be treated more easily than round ones because the inner skin is a little more permeable than the outer

Back 16

SPLIT CULM

Front 17

where the culms are first dipped in a solution of hot preservative then transferred to a cold container of the preservative or allowed to cool in the original preservative.

Back 17

HOT DIPPING METHOD

Front 18

where the preservation is forced by gravity from a container placed higher than the stem or with the use of pnematic pumps through pipes into the stem base.

Just like wood, pulp from bamboo can be obtained by “cooking” in a solution of pulping chemicals such as

Back 20

COLD SODA

Front 21

The culms are cracked, spread out, and flattened into sheets with suitable binding and filling materials; then the sheets are treated, combined, lapped, arranged, glued, pressed to the desired form, and then cut and trimmed to the desired size and shape and finally given finishing touches.

What are some of the machines available for processing bamboo?

Back 22

Cross cutting machine.

Automatic bamboo splitting machine

Bamboo slicing machine

Bamboo round skewer making machine.

Front 23

This is used for cutting the bamboo across its length by moving the circular saw p and sown to obtain the required length, the cut is smooth because it uses a special kind of saw blade. It is recommended for cutting a fixed length of round bamboo such as in the case of skewers and chopsticks.

Back 23

CROSS CUTTING MACHINE

Front 24

This machines splits round bamboo at high speed into 4-11 pieces of split bamboo by changing blades. This is highly suitable for mass production of almost all kinds of bamboo articles.

Back 24

AUTOMATIC BAMBOO SPLITTING MACHINE

Front 25

This machine can be used for the mass production of sliced materials having the desired thickness. The sliced materials can be used for many kinds of bamboo wares and products.

Back 25

BAMBOO SLICING MACHINE

Front 26

This can be used for making round bamboo sticks for skewer, toothpick, etc. having the desired diameter by simply changing the blade. An end-shaving machine can be used side by side with this to sharpen one end of the round stick from the skewer making machine.
