Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The sugar industry is one of the largest among the food industry. One plant processes around 8,000 tons of sugar beet daily. It can be said that sugar is a strategic product and byproducts are valuable as well, since they are raw materials for other technological processes which are also important. The author introduces the products of the sugar industry as well as the high product safety requirements. Due to the unambiguous impact of globalization on modern business, one of the requirements set in front of manufacturers is standardization and certification of food safety and quality systems. The book provides an overview of the GFSI Standards - Global Food Safety Initiative and key factors which collaboratively drive continuous improvement in the FSMS system around the world with a vision 'Safe food for consumers everywhere'.

Other standards applied in the food industry are also presented (EMS, Kosher, Halal, SAI-FSA). 80 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The main evidence supporting the theory of an expanding universe is the red-shift of distant galaxies (the increased wavelength of electromagnetic radiation from these galaxies), which is attributed to the Doppler effect. Assuming an expanding universe, the fulfillment of the cosmological principle (the lack of a specific center of the 'world' - that is, each place is the same) requires the adoption of an infinite universe. An infinite universe can hardly expand, since it is difficult to be ever more infinite. Therefore, the model of a three-dimensional spherical universe - in four-dimensional space - must remain. This assumption automatically imposes a curvature of space - the surface of a sphere has non-zero curvature. This is contrary to the commonly assumed Euclidean geometry, and requires a different view on the mechanisms of light propagation. The laws of electrodynamics in non-Euclidean space would also act differently. The following work attempts to explain the observed phenomenon of the red-shift of distant galaxies by adopting the following hypothesis: the speed of electromagnetic waves decreases with distance travelled, due to the curvature of space. 60 pp. Englisch.…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Renewable energy sources are essential to use as an alternative to all fossil fuel energy sources that are not environmentally friendly. Out of all the renewable energy sources, solar energy is the most widely used for electricity generation. Electric-powered vehicles, which are the most efficient, are gaining popularity in the automobile industry. The main focus of the study is to minimise the use of a series of batteries in electric vehicles and enhance the use of solar energy. The basic principle of the proposed vehicle is that the energy drawn from the solar panel is directly channelled to the motor. The power generated by the solar panel is measured using a power sensor. The vehicle works on dual-mode power draws and consists of a battery that charges simultaneously while operating. If the climatic conditions are not suitable for the solar panel to generate power and if the user wants to operate the vehicle at that time then there is an alternative source of power through the battery which is being utilised. This research focuses on the simulation of various components, namely, solar panels, Arduino Boards, current sensors, H-Bridges, batteries, and DC motors for the vehicle. 60 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Phosphorus is one of the three most important elements that a plant needs to complete its life cycle. Low bioavailability of phosphorus in soil from the applied phosphate fertilizers due to fixation/precipitation is considered the most critical factor in limiting optimum crop yields. Therefore, obtaining alternative sources of phosphate fertilizer at a low cost has become one of the most important requirements of this stage. Rock phosphate is one of the low-cost sources of phosphorus, but it is not preferred to add it directly to the soil due to its low solubility because of its very poor water solubility (0.1%). From the previous studies on rock phosphate, it was found that the availability of the phosphorus can be increased in several ways, among these ways partial acidification or the addition of biological fertilizers to rock phosphate, which leads to improvement and increased efficiency.Combination with oxalic acid plus ammonium thiosulfate and mixing them with rock phosphate has an effective effect on increasing the yield parameters of crops. The use of oxalic acid and ammonium thiosulfate represents many unique features such as ease of addition and increase in crop yield. 56 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Damage to cells caused by free radicals is believed to play a central role in the aging process and in disease progression. Antioxidants are our first line of defence against free radical damage, and are critical for maintaining optimum health and wellbeing. The need for antioxidants becomes even more critical with increased exposure to free radicals. Pollution, cigarette smoke, drugs, illness, stress, and even exercise can increase free radical exposure. Because so many factors can contribute to oxidative stress, individual assessment of susceptibility becomes important. Many experts believe that the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for specific antioxidants may be inadequate and, in some instances, the need may be several times the RDA. As part of a healthy lifestyle and a well-balanced, wholesome diet, antioxidant supplementation is now being recognized as an important means of improving free radical protection. The antioxidant activity was studied by taking some herbal product like Aloe Vera Juice, Karela Amla Juice, Amla Juice by using DPPH radical scavenging activity test and reductive ability test. It is found that Aloe Vera Juice possess more anti-oxidant activity. 60 pp. Englisch.…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -With the improvement of the alloying system of nickel-based superalloys, their microstructure becomes more complicated and the phase composition changes. The expediency of the presence of carbides in the structure of nickel-based superalloys (NBS) has been discussed for decades, but an attempt to replace carbides with other compounds leads to a decrease in the performance of the alloys due to a decrease in the thermodynamic stability of the phases. The elimination of carbides became possible only in single-crystal carbon-free alloys, which gave an increase in heat resistance due to the elimination of the boundaries of the phase distribution. Recently, however, single-crystal alloys alloyed with carbon, in which the mechanical properties are at the level of carbon-free compositions, have become widespread. Therefore, the influence of MC carbides, especially within the temperature range of 0.8TL, has a high value when strengthening the material. 80 pp. Englisch.…
