Microwave frequencies occupy portions of the electromagnetic spectrum between 300 MHz to 300 GHz. The full range of microwave frequencies is subdivided into various bands (Table 1). Because microwaves are also used in the communication, navigation and defence industries, their use in thermal heating is restricted to a small subset of the available frequency bands. In Australia, the commonly use...

The extraction and processing of starch from agricultural commodities is one of the most important agro-industries world wide. By the early 1990s, global production of starch probably exceeded 38 million metric tons (mmt) per year for a market value of at least $11 billion. In Asia, starch production was about 16 mmt and demand for starch by food and non-food industries was growing by 5-10 perc...

Electronic-nose (e-nose) instruments, derived from numerous types of aroma-sensor technologies, have been developed for a diversity of applications in the broad fields of agriculture and forestry. Recent advances in e-nose technologies within the plant sciences, including improvements in gas-sensor designs, innovations in data analysis and pattern-recognition algorithms, and progress in materi...
