摘要: ABSTRACT This article proposes and experimentally tests a way to better utilize renewable agricultural products that, if successful, will increase revenue for producers, decrease the amount cost of disposal non-renewable products, that need be produced. In this insulating ability ground corn cobs is compared, by experimental tests, typical fiberglass, cellulose, Rock Wool insulation. The study found not as great when compared insulations, but using greater thickness insulation made from or combining with insulations may beneficial. conclusion it valuable know how compares determine further research in area beneficial stimulate other possible ways use products.
