This project is presented as an innovative and clean alternative that optimizes the use of small areas for strawberry (Fragaria ananassa Duch) production in department Nariño. research was conducted at Centro Internacional de Producción Limpia Lope -SENA- Regional Nariño, with aim evaluating physical chemical variables organic substrates such coconut fiber, rice husk, their mixtures variety Alb...

The aim of this paper is to explain the scheme development and construction a machine that shreds coconut husks. makes use husks tender dealers have left on side road. This stack delicate causes inconvenience public. It cannot be crushed into fine powder using current shredder. A capable shredding husk has been developed. machine's 32mm shaft spins at 1200 revolutions per minute in clockwise ma...

Natural fiber-reinforced composites can contribute to reducing carbon footprint goals due their ability reduce overall product weight, bio-diverse feedstocks, and recyclability potential. In this work, natural fiber-based containing the reinforcement of coconut husk bagasse fiber with calcium carbonate (CaCO3) ingredients were prepared analyzed. The analyzed for mechanical, thermomechanical, mo...

In this work, chemically treated microcrystalline cellulose (MCC-C) was extracted from coconut husk fiber. order to extract hemicellulose, the sieved fiber with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) for dewaxing and acidified using chlorite (NaClO2) residual lignin (bleaching process). The obtained lignin-free then potassium (KOH). characterizations used equate MCC-C commercial grade (MCC) are solubility tes...

Ionic liquids that dissolve cellulose provide an option to pretreat lignocellulosic biomass. In this study, potential application of three ionic liquids in pretreating rice husk and their abilities in dissolving rice husk cellulose were investigated. The ionic liquids applied were 1-butyl-3methylimidazolium chloride ([BMIM]Cl), 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate ([EMIM]OAc), and 1-ethyl-3-meth...

Coconut, Cocos nucifera L., is a tree that is cultivated for its multiple utilities, mainly for its nutritional and medicinal values. The various products of coconut include tender coconut water, copra, coconut oil, raw kernel, coconut cake, coconut toddy, coconut shell and wood based products, coconut leaves, coir pith etc. Its all parts are used in someway or another in the daily life of the ...

The coconut oil, coconut water and palm kernel oil was administered orally at a dose of 400mg/kg body weight to white albino rats to check for some effect on biochemical parameters. Twenty (20) rats divided into four (4) groups of five (5) rats each. One group was treated with distilled water and feed only serving as control, second group was treated with coconut water only while the third grou...

Barley is the only crop in the Poaceae family with adhering husks at maturity. The color of husk at barely development stage could influence the agronomic traits and malting qualities of grains. A barley mutant with a white husk was discovered from the malting barley cultivar Supi 3 and designated wh (white husk). Morphological changes and the genetics of white husk barley were investigated. Hu...
