The development and implementation of technological lines for cleaning grain and sunflower seed mixture waste using aerodynamic separators, including column-type separators, play an important role in organizing modern solutions for primary grain processing, ensuring effective cleaning and sorting of grain through air flows.
Their relevance is due to low energy consumption compared to traditional mechanical separation methods. They have high productivity, allowing for the rapid sorting of large volumes of grain and seeds. They also demonstrate high efficiency in removing light impurities, dust, debris, and grain admixtures while being characterized by the absence of mechanical contact with the processed material, which reduces the risk of grain damage during processing. Additionally, they can be classified as universal machines since they are suitable for working with various crops (wheat, corn, sunflower, etc.).
Modern enterprises engaged in the primary processing of grain and seeds increasingly implement aerodynamic separators to enhance the efficiency of grain production and comply with international standards.
The experimental research results of the column-type aerodynamic separator presented in this article indicate that the model describing the dependence of the kernel and sunflower seed content in the kernel collection area is significant and adequate. Additionally, equations were derived to describe the relationships between the distribution coefficient and energy consumption based on research factors.
To achieve the efficient operation of the column-type aerodynamic separator, it is necessary to maximize the kernel and sunflower seed content in the kernel collection area, optimize the performance of the vibrating feeder, and minimize its energy consumption. The obtained dependencies were used to adjust the operating parameters of the column-type aerodynamic separator and achieve maximum operational efficiency.

Technology, energy, agriculture transport AIC is a scholarly professional journal with a long-standing history and stable academic tradition, reflecting the evolution of engineering and technical sciences within the agro-industrial sector of Ukraine.
The journal was founded in 1997 under the title Bulletin of Vinnytsia State Agricultural Institute. According to the Resolution of the Presidium of the Higher Attestation Commission of Ukraine dated September 11, 1997, the publication obtained the status of a professional scientific journal, which enabled the publication of the main results of doctoral and candidate dissertations in technical sciences. From its inception, the journal positioned itself as an academic platform for addressing current issues of mechanization, electrification, and technical support of agricultural production. During 2001–2014, the journal was published under the title Proceedings of Vinnytsia National Agrarian University. Series: Technical Sciences (State Registration Certificate of Print Media KV No. 16644-5116 PR dated April 30, 2010). Throughout this period, a systematic approach to the selection and peer review of scientific manuscripts was established, the thematic scope of publications was expanded, and continuity of scientific directions as well as the development of sectoral engineering schools was ensured. Since 2015, the journal has been published under its current title, Technology, energy, agriculture transport AIC (State Registration Certificate No. 21906-11806 R dated March 12, 2016). The change of title reflected the expansion of the journal’s thematic coverage and its orientation toward interdisciplinary research in mechanical engineering, energy systems, electrical engineering, transport technologies, automation, and digital solutions for the agro-industrial complex.
