The purpose of this current study is to investigate the effect of binders on briquetting of durian peel, particularly modification of starch composition as a binder. In this study, the durian peel was treated by drying, milling and carbonization at 370 oC. The binders were starch and calcium ...
Based on the results, the chemical properties of whole durian seed flour were high in protein, ash, fiber, and lipid compared to durian seed starch and demucilaged flour. Regarding functional properties, the whole durian seed flour still exhibited high water absorption capacity, peak viscosity, ...
Addition of 1% corn starch as adhesive to the bio-char yielded pellets with a heating value of 22.37 MJ/kg. The pellets are stable and could be easily handled, transported and stored compared to the bio-char itself. This research is significant in respect to biomass waste reduction and ...
In this work, we investigated the effect starch binders compositions on the quality of briquettes from the pyrolysis of Durian lai peel (Durio kutejensis Becc). The briquettes were prepared from Durian peel charcoal by adding starch as a binder at various concentrations of 3%, 4%,5%, and 6%...
Based on the results, the chemical properties of whole durian seed flour were high in protein, ash, fiber, and lipid compared to durian seed starch and demucilaged flour. Regarding functional properties, the whole durian seed flour still exhibited high water absorption capacity, peak viscosity, ...
It can be a natural plant source of non-starch polysaccharide gum with potential functional properties. The main goal of the present study was to investigate the effect of chemical extraction variables (i.e., the decolouring time, soaking temperature and soaking time) on the physicochemical ...
