Developing Turkey's first and only patented cotton delintation technology, Taren Engineering has announced that it is establishing cottonseed delintation facilities worldwide. The company also serves as a seed processor to the cottonseed producers in the region with the Taren Tohum AS cottonseed delintation facility established in Urfa.
 
Providing comprehensive services and developing delintation technologies that increase cotton productivity and quality, Taren Engineering has achieved rapid growth since its establishment in 2017. Taren develops solutions in cottonseed production at the very beginning of the textile supply chain with the slogan ‘Let It Be Cotton!’ and has made improvements that will contribute to the sector. Taren Engineering, founded in Adana by Sercenk Kiliç, who has an extensive experience of 20 years in the seed sector, carries out important projects especially in textile markets where cotton is produced.
 
Indicating that the delintation machine company has developed and patented performs the delinting process with acid, Kiliç stated that compared to mechanical systems, this system completely cleans the fibres and residues off the seed.
 
“In mechanical delintation, fibre and unwanted micro-organisms from the field or gin still remain on the seed. Delintation with acid eliminates these harmful effects in terms of cotton harvest quantity and quality. The seeds that pass through the delintation are sieved in the precision screening group machines and the hollow light seeds are separated. In addition, in the seed coating process for seed yield, acid-delinted seeds are coated more homogeneously and better preserve the agricultural additives within the seed,” Kiliç said in a press release. 
 
“In mechanical delintation, on the other hand, the fibres remaining on the seed prevent homogeneous coating, and the cleaning brushes included in these systems can scratch the seed and damage the embryo inside the seed.”
 
Research and field studies show that acid-delinted seeds achieve much higher yields than seeds that have been seeded or mechanically delinted. The seeds with the highest germination capability can be selected by subjecting the seeds to tests before they are delinted or after. This means using a smaller amount of seeds compared to seed cultivation. By planting 2.5 kg of cotton seeds per decare, a serious profit can be obtained in breeding costs. It is possible to obtain higher yields per decare provided that the seed quality is adhered to.
 
“Delinted seed strengthens producers’ hands in combating diseases and pests in cotton agriculture. The acid and hot air used during the delintation process enable the destruction of unwanted micro-organisms on the surface of the seed. Thus, a purer seed is obtained,” Kiliç said in the release.
 
“We have developed strategies for important cotton and textile countries in the global market. Our focus is on textile manufacturers, seeders and spinners who plant their own fields and produce their own cotton. World cotton production in India, Pakistan, China, USA, Brazil, Turkey, Uzbekistan and African countries are prominent. All markets have potential for us,” Kiliç said.
 
“We have quickly started our global marketing efforts. We established a representation office in the Okora-Punjab region of Pakistan after establishing a representation office in Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan. We are continuing our efforts to establish a representation and sales network in various other regions of the world where cotton is on the agenda,” Firat Hinis, Taren Engineering international sales and marketing director, said in the release. 
 
“As a matter of fact, we are in intense negotiations in Africa, I hope that we will introduce this technology to Africa soon. We closely follow all developments in cotton and cottonseed processing in the world. We will take part in important fairs and organizations after the global pandemic crisis,” Hinis said.
 
“Urfa and this region produces 40 per cent of the total cotton in Turkey. However, there was no delintation facility to meet the needs of the region. Sending seeds outside the region created serious time loss, freight costs, and tracking difficulties. Taren Tohum, which started its activities, has a seasonal cottonseed processing capacity of 15 thousand tons. There are 7 delinters in our facility that we manufactured. With an installed capacity it is Turkey's largest cottonseed delintation facility. We provide confidence and convenience to our partners with our experienced staff,” Kiliç said.
 
Continuing its activities with 20 years of experience, Taren Engineering creates a clear and profitable response to meeting the demands for sustainability, transparent production and protection of resources demanded in the textile supply chain at the cotton production stage.
