the fast depletion of petroleum crude oil reserves and the serious consideration of environmental issues make the implementation of sustainable energy sources a crucial issue worldwide. biofuel derived from vegetable oils is receiving a great attention as one of the most suitable and logical alternatives of fossil fuels. therefore, the production of petroleum-like fractions from nonedible oil e...

date syrup, date concentrate and date liquid sugar are among the products which are produced from low quality dates in date processing plants. the aim of this research was to investigate chemical characteristics and sensory properties of date syrup, date concentrate and date liquid sugar in comparison with sugar (sucrose) solutions and evaluate possible substitution of sucrose with these date b...

today, by increase in production capacity of dairy manufactures, high amounts of whey is produced as a by product of cheese production. in recent decays, high amount of whey production sometimes up to 8 times more than produced cheese-, its high bod and its environmental problems caused in particular attention to whey processing and its usage in food products. according to promotions occurred i...

many countries have created systems for monitoring food products. however, these systems need paper and label and also, cannot find the origin and final destination of food product. radio frequency identification (rfid) has the capability of monitoring foods completely and track the mentioned points. this technology also can monitor many food products simultaneously. the usage of this system ca...

We have developed a new method to efficiently convert waste biomass (agricultural, municipal, forestry) into biofuels and value-added products. The process is completely chemical in nature, inexpensive, and produces no waste stream. The derived products are non-toxic, biodegradable substitutes for petroleum, both in motor fuels and as renewable chemical intermediates. The technology involves th...
