Microwave Analysis of Shredded Sugarcane
1986
Sverzut, C. B. | Verma, L. R.
A fast and accurate method to determine the moisture content was developed for shredded samples of sugarcane. There was no significant difference between the moisture values using the standard press analysis technique or the heated air oven method and the microwave method developed in this study. Considerable time can be saved in the analysis of sugarcane samples when a household microwave oven is used to determine their moisture content. Sugar content can also be calculated as a percent of the total weight of the sugarcane from the moisture content values.
