As policies have been implemented globally to limit the production of greenhouse gases (GHGs) and effects climate change, generation electricity by renewable technologies has started increase. The development sustainable energy storage solutions also become more important. continued use conventional chemical batteries presents environmental issues such as heavy metal pollution unsustainable res...

the objective of this study was to evaluate the storage life and quality of persimmon (diospyros kaki thunb.) fruit cv. ‘karaj’ stored at 0°c for 4 months after postharvest calcium chloride treatment. fruit weight loss, fruit firmness, total soluble solids, titratable acidity, total phenolic content, soluble tannin content, chilling injury, antioxidant activity, electrolyte leakage, and malondi...

We present a theoretical framework to calculate how storage affects the energy return on energy investment (EROI) ratios of wind and solar resources. Our methods identify conditions under which it is more energetically favorable to store energy than it is to simply curtail electricity production. Electrochemically based storage technologies result in much smaller EROI ratios than large-scale ge...

Drying process is commonly used to allow long time storage of valuable porcini mushrooms (Boletus edulis). Although considered a stable product dried porcini flavour changes during storage. Monitoring of volatile compounds during shelf life may help to understand the nature of the observed changes. In the present work two mass spectrometric techniques were used to monitor the evolution of volat...

all of the food products are required to be packaged due to hygienic regard, storage, suitable transportation and preservation of quality and vacuum packaging is one of the prevention methods of spoilage. hence in this study, some of the quality factores changes of rutilus frissi kutum fillets storaged in vacuum and air packages were examined during 18 days in ice alike total volatile base-nitr...

443 Khoa is a popular indigenous semi-solid milk product which is prepared by thermal evaporation of milk to 65-70% solids in an open pan. The food value of khoa is very high as it contains fairly large quantities of protein, fat, lactose and bone-forming minerals, especially calcium. It is usually used for direct consumption or as a base material for sweets preparation in the Indo-Pak subconti...

background and objectives: edible films and coatings are effective method for decreasing oxidation and increasing the shelf life of pistachios. the present study investigated the effect of an edible gelatin coating containing ascorbic acid (aa: 1% w/v) and propyl gallate (pg: 100 ppm) on the oxidative stability and sensory properties of roasted pistachio nuts. materials and methods: pistachios ...

the aim of this research was to investigate the efficiency of ldpe films incorporating fifferent nanofillers in extending orange juice shelf life. fresh orange juice packed in different films was assessed for microbial stability, ascorbic acid content, ph, color parameters and sensory quality during 0, 7, 28 and 58 d of storage. mold and yeast growth, acidophil and aerobic mesophil bacteria pop...
