Analysis of physical and mechanical properties and of gross calorific value of Jatropha curcas seeds and waste from pressing process

Original language description

The research was performed with an aim to investigate physical and mechanical properties and a gross calorific value of Jatropha curcas seeds and particular products (waste) of a pressing process. Sizes of seeds, an energy which is necessary for pressingan oil and a setting of the gross calorific value were tested parameters. Tests were performed at Jatropha Curcas seeds of a brown colour (that means gnaw). The pressing process waste amounts up to 80 %. The proportion of the kernel mass to the coat mass is 1 : 0.62. From the research results it follows that the coat mass is 37.60%. The seed coat belongs among interesting material owing to the gross calorific value. For pressing the whole seeds it is necessary of about 30% higher energy than for pressing the kernels of Jatropha curcas.
