Wastewater Treatments for the Food Industry: Physical-Chemical Systems

2017

This chapter provides a general overview of physical–chemical wastewater remediation systems in the food industry. Water reuse systems are becoming more and more interesting and promising technologies, depending on merely quantitative estimations, physical and chemical features of pollutants and the variability of these characteristics, week after week. Different systems are available for the food industry, depending on the final destination or water effluents and peculiar chemical–physical and biological features of the fluids before treatment. Several of these remediation systems can be subdivided into different groups, depending on the desired amount of gross removed matters, or into fou…

Basic Physical-Chemical and Sensorial Evaluation of Some Fermented Mashes Produced from Wheat, Husked Millet, Barley Malt and Oat

2012

Abstract Fermented mashes based on different cereal grist are a healthy and nutritious beverage, a source for new functional products with beneficial effects on human health. These mashes are a thick consistency and sour-sweet taste, different colors depending on the ingredients and method of preparation. In this study were determined the main physical and chemical characteristics (pH, volatile and total acidity, total and soluble dry substances, alcohol concentration, dynamic viscosity) and was made sensorial analysis of some boiled aqueous mashes obtained from wheat, husked millet, barley malt and oat. Mashes were fermented at 30 °C with a mixed culture of mesophilic cheese lactic acid ba…

The use of the Pearson’s correlation coefficients to identify mechanical-physical-chemical parameters controlling the tribocorrosion of metallic alloy

2021

Abstract Tribocorrosion is of complex nature as it involves multiscale interactions between mechanical, (electro-)chemical, physical, and material factors. A methodology based on the use of the Pearson’s correlation matrix and local techniques is described here to analyze interactions between these factors. The most influent experimental parameters selected for tribocorrosion tests on the surface/subsurface characteristics and on the corrosion parameters are identified. Correlations between surface/subsurface and corrosion parameters are also analyzed to propose criteria and to understand basic mechanisms of tribocorrosion. This methodology is particularly useful in the case of multiphase m…

A combined physical-chemical and microbiological approach to unveil the fabrication, provenance, and state of conservation of the Kinkarakawa-gami ar…

2020

AbstractKinkarakawa-gami wallpapers are unique works of art produced in Japan between 1870 and 1905 and exported in European countries, although only few examples are nowadays present in Europe. So far, neither the wallpapers nor the composing materials have been characterised, limiting the effective conservation–restoration of these artefacts accounting also for the potential deteriogen effects of microorganisms populating them. In the present study, four Kinkarakawa-gami wallpapers were analysed combining physical–chemical and microbiological approaches to obtain information regarding the artefacts’ manufacture, composition, dating, and their microbial community. The validity of these met…

Monitoring the Shelf-Life of Minimally Processed Fresh-Cut Apple Slices By Physical Chemical Analysis and Electronic Nose

2014

Fresh-cut apples, in slices or in cubes, are minimally processed products, which are currently collecting a great interest by fruit marketers for their promising diffusion. Their shelf life, from a microbiological point of view, has been fixed about 2 or 3 weeks under refrigeration. However in a few days they undergo biochemical degradations with production of off-flavors and texture breakdown. In this work, the change of aromatic fingerprint of apple slices packaged in air and in a modified atmosphere (with 100% N2) and stored at 4°C was measured, by using a commercial electronic nose. The obtained data were also compared with sensory evaluation of judge’s panel. Moreover, quality paramete…

Physical - chemical interaction of injection waters with depleted gas formations

2021

In order that the physical - chemical interaction of the injection water with the porous-permeable or fissured medium of reservoirs do not lead to their degradation, it is necessary that the waters to meet a number of quality conditions. The treatment and conditioning of the injectable waters is imperative to do so due to the fact that their provenance is different, such as reservoir waters, wastewater resulting from various operations – petroleum operations, meteoric waters, etc. and, in particular, due to the very large volumes of injected water. Failure to follow the steps associated with the water treatment process inevitably leads to premature reduction of the injection wells receptivi…

Resistive communications based on neuristors

2017

Memristors are passive elements that allow us to store information using a single element per bit. However, this is not the only utility of the memristor. Considering the physical chemical structure of the element used, the memristor can function at the same time as memory and as a communication unit. This paper presents a new approach to the use of the memristor and develops the concept of resistive communication.

Effect of conditioned media on three genotypes ofDrosophila melanogaster: Physical, chemical, and biological aspects

1986

The uric acid contents in larvae, pupae, and culture media were studied during larval and pupal development in three genotypes of Drosophila melanogaster reared in both crowded and noncrowded conditions. The uric acid content and the response of genotypes in media supplemented with 10 and 15 mg/ml of uric acid were correlated with the outcome obtained in conditioned media. In addition, the behavior of genotypes in conditioned media is explained in terms of the physicochemical properties of the conditioned media, which include uric acid content, the amount of food ingested, the degree of free water, the physical disturbance within the cultures, and the particular response of each genotype to…

Fruit physical, chemical and aromatic attributes of early, intermediate and late apricot cultivars

2010

BACKGROUND: In order to reach good fruit quality, apricots require a balance of sugars and acids as well as a strong apricot aroma. In this study, fruit quality of early, intermediate and late apricot cultivars was evaluated by measuring physical, chemical and olfactory attributes. Multivariate analysis of quality and aroma attributes was used to identify groups of similar cultivars and association with ripening season. RESULTS: Physical, chemical and aromatic attributes showed great variation among cultivars but no relation to ripening season. Aromatic profiles (34 volatiles) of fruit tissues indicated qualitative and quantitative differences among cultivars. Ninfa and Mandorlon were riche…
