Popis: | Sugar beets are grown for sugar production. After harvesting, sugar beets are placed in closed storage for long-term storage. The main purpose of storage is to preserve sugar as much as possible in order to further ensure the profitability of processing beets for sugar. However, during storage of sugar beets, there is a rapid loss of moisture and weight. Beets, which have a weight loss of 13 … 17%, lose 5 times more sugar during storage than beets of good quality. One way to reduce the weight loss of sugar beet tubers is to use the magnetic field of a neodymium permanent magnet. Experimental studies on the treatment of sugar beet tubers with a magnetic field showed that the minimum weight loss of sugar beet tubers when treated with a negative magnetic field reached 15.3%, the minimum weight loss of sugar beet tubers when treated with a positive magnetic field reached 17.6%, and the weight loss of tubers sugar beet, not treated with a magnetic field, reached 25.6%. Thus, the nature of the influence of the magnetic field of a permanent neodymium magnet of positive and negative polarity on the weight loss of sugar beet tubers has been established. |
