Bioprocess intensification of beer fermentation using immobilised cells
(Encapsulation Technologies for Active Food Ingredients and Food Processing, 2010)
Beer production with immobilised yeast has been the subject of research for approximately 30 years but has so far found limited application in the brewing industry, due to engineering problems, unrealised cost advantages, ...
Implementation of image analysis research on refractory concrete lifetime prediction for thermal stability and cavitation erosion testing
(Advances in Image Analysis Research, 2014)
Lifetime prediction for construction material is essential and very often crucial for determination of impact on material application and service. Many models based on different parameters were used to monitor materials ...
Biodiesel production: The problems in software design at supercritical and subcritical conditions
(Supercritical Fluids, 2011)
A large interest in research as well as dramatically increased number of scientific papers covering this topic evidently exists. This chapter covers the literature review of biodiesel production under specific conditions ...
Macroporous and non-porous amino-functionalized glycidyl methacrylate based copolymers for hexavalent chromium sorption
(Chromium: Environmental, Medical and Materials Studies, 2011)
Two porous samples and one non-porous sample of crosslinked poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) [abbreviated PGME] were synthesized by suspension copolymerization and functionalized by ring-opening ...
Thermoplastic Copolyester Elastomers
(Handbook of Engineering and Speciality Thermoplastics: Polyethers and Polyesters, 2011)
In this chapter the preparation, structure and properties of thermoplastic copolyester elastomers, TPEE, are presented. TPEEs are multiblock copolymers built up from so-called short crystallizable hard segments and long ...
Antioxidants from lamiaceae herbs
(Food Quality: Control, Analysis and Consumer Concerns, 2011)
One of the important trends in the food industry today is the demand for natural antioxidants from plant material. Synthetic antioxidants such as butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), and butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) now being ...
Chitin and chitosan from microorganisms
(Chitin, Chitosan, Oligosaccharides and Their Derivatives: Biological Activities and Applications, 2010)
Today, a major concern about the use of crustacean chitin/chitosan in the pharmaceutical and biomedical field is still the molecular variability of a natural product, which results in a wide unpredictable range of ...
Smart hydrogels for pharmaceutical applications
(Novel Approaches for Drug Delivery, 2016)
The latest development in the field of smart hydrogels application as drugs carriers is shown in this chapter. Hydrogels are three-dimensional polymer network consisting of at least one hydrophilic monomer. They are insoluble ...
The impact of air pollution from the mining-metallurgical complex on the content of total sulfur in plant material and soil
(Air Quality: Environmental Indicators, Monitoring and Health Implications, 2013)
The area of Bor and the surroundings (Eastern Serbia) have beenknown for exploitation and processing of sulfide copper ores for morethan a hundred years. Long-term ore exploitation in the examined areahas made a great ...
Rheological behavior of hyperbranched polymers
(Rheology: Theory, Properties and Practical Applications, 2013)
Hyperbranched polymers represent intriguing class of dendritic polymers, which show remarkable, unique and different chemical and physical properties compared to their linear counterparts, as a result of their complex, ...
