- Abstract:
- In this work are presented some details of the process in sugar cane to obtain sweet; the humidity is fundamental and currently the traditional laboratory test go on with each load in parallel to the process on cane; to conclude that the laboratory results in quality control for each load is known when the process arrive to the end of the chain, because of this there is not possibility to estimate the humidity level in the cane load at the moment when is entering the genius. The microwaves system would work in an alone frequency and would be taken advantage of the technique of signals reflection for in his operation. The microwaves system would be proposed as a complement to the already existing systems of quality control, those which already found in all genius.
