ROQUE CHAVEZ, Alexander  e  JIMENEZ ARMELO, Yosbel. Treatment of the vegetable condensed obtained in juices of citric fruits after the harvest to be used to feed the boilers. Rev Cie Téc Agr [online]. 2010, vol.19, n.4, pp. 83-85. ISSN 2071-0054.

The objective of this paper is to determine the value of the pH on the condensed vegetable obtained from the juice concentrators, its variance depending on the kind of citrus fruits and its maturity as well as to determine the amount of sodium hydroxide needed for its treatment, to be used to feed the boilers. For this study many samples of pH were taken during the campaign 2008-2009, in a 7 month period. The values of pH were compared to the fruit ratio obtaining a correlation of 0,00149, and by statistics methods it is found that the condensed vegetable pH is constant during the hole campaign and that it is possible to use it to feed the boilers adding to every cubic meter 10,17 g of sodium hydroxide to increase values of pH, from 4 to 8.
