Textile Processing by Microwave Heating

Melting and Processing of Silicon by Microwave Heating

Microwave heating is applied for processing different silicon raw materials, based on the size-, shapeand composition-dependent absorption of radiation of 2.45 and 916 MHz frequency by silicon. In model experiments directed towards the improvement of melting technology, Si-fines and chunks of bulk Silicon from Electronic Grade (EG)and Solar Grade (SG)-silicon production are used as raw material...

Applications of microwave heating in mineral processing

Many minerals are effective absorbers of microwave energy, whereas in general gangue materials are not. This suggests applying microwave heating to mineral processing to effect selective heating of minerai phases. Many mineral processing applications have been tested only on a laboratory scale; the engineering realities of large-scale operations have largely been overlooked. Of particular conce...

Histological fixation by microwave heating.

Microwave heating

Microwave heating is a process within a family of electroheat techniques, such as induction, radio frequency, direct resistance or infra-red heating, all of which utilise specific parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. These processes supplement, and in specific cases totally replace, conventional heating or drying systems used in industry. This is because some conventional systems are very bul...

Effect of Microwave Heating on Flavour Generation and Food Processing

The flavour and colour of a food product have significant impacts on consumer acceptability. Two of the challenges with microwave food products are that it is often difficult to achieve the desired flavour that matches products prepared in a conventional oven or by frying and to get the browning that the consumer expects. There are reactions that occur in those processes that do not occur when ...
