Manufacture of Malt and Beer with Low Temperature Solar Process Heat

Low Temperature Solar Collectors

Characteristics of malt liquor beer drinkers in a low-income, racial minority community sample.

BACKGROUND The authors describe and compare drinking patterns among malt liquor beer (MLB), regular beer (RB), and hard liquor (HL) drinkers in a low-income, racial/ethnic minority community. METHODS Drinkers were recruited from randomly selected alcohol outlets in South Los Angeles. Respondents were assessed on sociodemographic characteristics, alcohol use history, drinking patterns, and dri...

Published Articles on High-alcohol Beer and Malt Liquor

2015 The impact of large container beer purchases on alcoholrelated fatal vehicle accidents Hoke O & Cotti C The authors examined the relationship between beer container size and alcoholrelated fatal accidents, noting that they are the first researchers to investigate this relationship. Unlike wine and liquor, beer is typically packaged and consumed in serving size containers (e.g., can, bottle...

Industrial Process Heat Applications of Solar Energy

Concentrating solar collectors of low concentration ratio can supply hot water or process heat at intermediate temperatures, i.e. 80 to 180 C, where flat plate collectors are not effective, and for which there are a number of industrial, domestic and rural applications. This paper studies the potential applications of this technology and presents case studies to prove its feasibility.

LOW TEMPERATURE SYNTHESIS OF NANOCRYSTALLINE MgAl2O4 SPINEL VIA SUCROSE PROCESS

Abstract: Nanocrystalline MgAl2O4 spinel powder was synthesized using metal nitrates and a polymer matrix-based composed of sucrose and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). The precursor and the calcined powders were characterized by simultaneous thermal analysis (STA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). According to XRD res...
