Development of energy self-sufficiency of agroindustry

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2020
Abstract Agroindustrial production processes consume considerable amount of energy and generate a lot of organic wastes. These wastes pollute the environment because of their rich organic compounds that will undergo decomposition. The main compounds contained in the waste are energy-carrying materials such as fibre, carbohydrates ...
