Domestic and foreign research of the application of electric and electromagnetic fields for intensification of sucrose extraction from sugar beet cossettes

Abstract

The article presents the results of a long-term research performed by national and international scientists in field of intensification of the process of sucrose extraction from sugar beet cossettes. The data characterizing the efficiency of electrical treatment on the structure of sugar beet tissue and changes in its physical properties are presented. The quality indicators of diffusion and purified juices obtained by classical and experimental technologies are given. The prospects of introduction of technologies for the processing of sugar beet cossettes by electric and electromagnetic fields in the sugar beet industry are estimated.
