Energetic efficiency, based on a version of EROEI indicator, of salix viminalis plantation is estimated for realistic tillage technology. For different plantation sizes, different sets of machines are selected for performing ...

Replacement of fossil fuel with renewables including biomass is one of the ways to ensure sustainable development. Biomass incineration is most frequently used energy conversion technology. Notwithstanding that ash arising ...

The selection of machines and their mode of operation in a given biomass technology depends on the plant species. The date and multiplicity of harvest also depend on the species of the plant and its destination. Under ...

The work presents the relationship between the intensity of production organization and technical equipment of Polish agriculture. The intensity of production organization was determined using B. Kopeć's indicator method. ...

The paper presents evaluation of the quality characteristics of briquettes produced from selected wood waste, whose use is part of a sustainable farming policy. The following types of wood waste were used in the study: ...

The purpose of the present study was to determine the suitability of apple fibers (dietary fiber) as a raw material for granulate pellets production, as an aspect of waste management in sustainable agriculture processes. ...

In Poland, apples are stored in cold storage plants, with either normal or controlled atmosphere. Estimation of physical parameters permits the determination of the current state of the fruit and the prediction of allowable ...

Pressing is the most common method of fruit juice acquisition. Not all apple cultivars are suitable for juice pressing. The use of suitable fruit cultivars for juice pressing may reduce the cost of pressing and at the same ...
