Where modern heating and cooking fuels for domestic, institutional, commercial and industrial use are not readily available, briquettes made from biomass residues could contribute to the sustainable supply of energy. This study reviews the briquette making process, looking at the entire value cha...

A review on production, marketing and use of fuel briquettes
A standardized textural test was developed for characterizing the banana pulp softening process during boiling. While a correlation was established between initial dry matter content and firmness, we observed large differences in cooking behavior between varieties and genotypes, with various soft...

The low digestibility of grain legumes, particularly beans, is highlighted and its regulating factors (tannins, seed coat fiber, protease inhibitors, protein structure of the protein to digest, interactions between proteins and other cotyledon nutrients, etc.) are explained with the aid of a line...

The principal activities carried out in 1986 in the nutrition and quality lab. are reported. A statistical analysis of all the parameters of acceptability on all bean materials evaluated in the lab. from 1981 to 1985 was executed. A joint project was carried out between CIAT and Instituto de Nutr...
