Abstract
The use of sapropel and its derivatives is highlighted as a promising direction for increasing soil fertility. During the preparation and processing of sapropel, one of the operations that allows to reduce its humidity is freezing to negative temperatures. But at the moment there is no information on the required freezing temperature and its effect on the amount of water to be separated. The article presents the results of a study of the process of separation of bound water from solid sapropel particles under the influence of negative temperatures. It was found that to separate the bound water, it is sufficient to cool the sapropel below the freezing point of the water. Further cooling in the range of negative temperatures has no effect on the amount of water to be separated. This effect has been proven experimentally, and the results obtained will reduce the energy intensity of the process.
