Improvement of juice expression after separation of sweet sorghum pith from rind leaf

Conference ·
OSTI ID:7243708
Sweet sorghum stalks were chopped, the pitch separated from the rind-leaf, and the pitch portion only was fed through a screw press for juice expression. Maximum juice yield was achieved with 75% of the fresh weight in the pitch fraction. The screw press capacity decreased as fiber content of the material increased.
