The level of moisture reduction attainable depends on temperature and relative humidity.
The development of Maillard chemicals requires temperatures of above 100 C, average moisture content (too much or too little inhibits the reactions), and a little acidity.
The average moisture content of the sawdust was 11.46%.
Estimates for the average moisture content were calculated and evaluated.
The moisture content reduction was uniform for the first 7 days for both test consortia and control composts, indicating moisture reduction due to drying and evaporation (Fig. 3d).
The OPC, 10SF, and 20FA pastes had average moisture contents of 31% at 254 days, while the 40FA paste had an average moisture content of about 40%.
Humidity diffusion is a quite empirical approach that uses average moisture diffusion coefficients (Martin-Pérez 1999).
This solid discard is composed of disintegrated carrot tissue, with an average moisture content of 67%.
The average moisture content in the studied raw textile sludge was 80%%.
The average moisture content of the AC samples was in the range 2 3%%.
