in this study, response surface methodology was used to determine the optimum raw sugar beet juice purification process conditions using bentonite to produce inverted liquid sugar. for this purpose, impact of factors on the purification process such as bentonite concentration (1-5 gr/li), ph (3.5-6) and temperature (35-95 ˚c) was investigated. for each response, a second-order polynomial model ...

Laboratory studies have been carried out on the effect of chemical treatment with use various sulfite-containing reagents sugar production concentrated intermediates - thick juice and remelt syrups beet quality. It has established that sulfur dioxide provides a greater reduction in their color compared to sodium bisulfite – from 996,7 830,30 857,30 ICUMSA units, respectively. improves quality r...

Sugar and fodder beet were grown in three years to assess the potential sugar yield for ethanol production in the region. Fresh weight root yields ranged from 70-85 t/ha for sugar beet and 55-136 t/ha for fodder beet. Sugar contents averaged 15% for sugar beet and 10117o for fodder beet resulting in sugar yields of 10-12 t/ha and 5-12 t/ha respectively. Consistently higher sugar yield from suga...

Sugar beet is a species of the Chenopodiaceae family. It is an important sugar crop that supplies approximately 35% of the sugar in the world. Sugar beet M14 line is a unique germplasm that contains genetic materials from Beta vulgaris L. and Beta corolliflora Zoss. And exhibits tolerance to salt stress. In this review, we have summarized OMICS technologies and applications in sugar beet includ...

In Europe, the framework for sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) production was subject to considerable changes and for the future it is expected that sugar beet cultivation might concentrate around the sugar factories for economic reasons. Based on data from a national sugar beet farmers' survey and multi-year crop rotation trials, the effects of cropping interval (number of years in between two sub...

Defoliation produced by abiotic factors and the subsequent re-growth can reduce sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) sucrose content and final sugar yield. Field experiments were conducted during 2003 and 2004 growing seasons in the farm of Hellenic Sugar Industry SA, Larissa factory, central Greece. Three sugar beet cultivars (Rival, Europa and Corsica) were ordinary irrigated till the beginning of J...

The thermostable enzyme systems produced by the thermophilic ascomycete fungus Talaromyces emersonii cultivated on various carbon sources were investigated for the production of high value products from sugar beet. A broad range of enzymatic activities relevant to cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin hydrolysis were identified in T. emersonii culture filtrates. In hydrolysis experiments conduct...

The use of sugar beet in anaerobic digestion (AD) during biogas production can lead to process upsets such as excessive foaming in fermenters. In the present study, foam formation in sugar beet-fed digestates was studied in foaming tests. The increasing disintegration grade of sugar beet was observed to have a promoting effect on foaming in the digestate but did not affect the biogas yield. Che...

Sugar Beet Nematode (SBN), Heterodera schachtii, is one of the most destructive pests of sugar beets worldwide. It is present in all sugar beet growing areas of Wyoming and is particularly severe in fields located in close proximity to processing plants where sugar beets have been grown the longest. This soilborne, parasitic nematode attacks and destroys the small feeder roots of sugar beet pla...
