yoghurt ice cream (yic) or frozen yoghurt dessert can be regarded as a healthy alternative to plain ice cream. also use of soy derived products in food formulations can lead to the development of products of improved nutritional and health promoting values. yoghurt ice cream was prepared using full-fat soy flour to substitute 55% of non fat dry milk content. product formulation comprised of 12%...

Recently, a Ph.D-study started regarding pharmacy, organization and management (APOM) in the Netherlands. The APOM-project deals with the structuring and steering of pharmacy organization. This article describes the theoretical background of a pilot study and the empirical results in a small sample (n=24). No generalization to the population of pharmacies in the Netherlands is possible. Three m...

Calcium carbide residue (CCR) is a waste by-product from acetylene gas production. The main component of CCR is Ca(OH)₂, which can react with siliceous materials through pozzolanic reactions, resulting in a product similar to those obtained from the cement hydration process. Thus, it is possible to use CCR as a substitute for Portland cement in concrete. In this research, we synthesized CCR and...

In this paper, we describe an ontology for a hierarchically organized production control system in semiconductor manufacturing. The semiconductor manufacturing domain is characterized by reentrant product flows, sequence dependent setup-times, prescribed due-dates, a diverse product mix, a mix of different process types including batch processes and preventive maintenance issues because of comp...

The integrated product mix-outsourcing optimization is a major problem in manufacturing enterprise. Generally, heuristic or meta-heuristic solution approaches are used to optimize such problems. Heuristic approaches for these problems include Theory of Constraints (TOC) and Standard Accounting. Sometimes heuristic approaches are inefficient especially in large problems and instead, in these cas...

this study investigated maturation and stability levels during composting of quercus robur (qr) woodchips mixed with different nitrogen sources (horse manure, hm and lake mud, lm) for potential agronomic utilisation. the woodchips were mixed with hm and lm, respectively, at mixing ratios of 1qr:2hm or 1qr:2lm. the experiment was conducted in a greenhouse over 100 days. during composting, organi...

The replacement of natural resources in the manufacture of cement and sand is the present issue in the present construction scenario. Copper slag and Ground Granulated Blast furnace Slag (GGBS) are industrial by-product materials produced from the process of manufacturing copper and iron. Use of Copper slag and GGBS does not only reduce the cost of construction but also helps to reduce the impa...

the aim of this study was to investigate the role of international sporting goods fair in developing sport market regarding marketing mix (5ps). the study used a descriptive and field method and was conducted as a survey. the statistical population included all sporting equipment and goods producers who participated in the international fair (n=72 companies) and the sample equaled the populatio...
