The Influence of Apple, Carrot and Red Beet Pomace Content on the Properties of Pellet from Barley Straw
Influence of wastes generated during juice production: apple, carrot and red beet, added to barley straw, on density of pellet mass, pellet hardness, ash content and calorific value was assessed. Dry mass content of additives in the substrate to pellet production was: 0, 10, 20 and 30% of the mixtur...
