In the present study, phenolic extracts and fractions from Canadian rowanberry (Sorbus aucuparia) and crabapple (Malus baccata) were screened for antioxidant activity using DPPH radical scavenging activity, and β-carotene bleaching assays. Furthermore, rapeseed oil was supplemented with extracts/fractions and performance was assessed during accelerated storage at 65°C, under Rancimat at 120°C, ...

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) or Utilization (CCU) are expected to be powerful tools to reduce CO2 emissions to the atmosphere from large scale sources, such as electric power, oil refinery, steal making, cement plants, with continuing their activities Those contain the CO2 separation or capture from flue gases at the plants and the transport and injecting CO2 into oil and gas reservoirs, an...

the oxidation of lipids change organoleptical properties, nutritional value and shelf life of oils, and produce undesirable compounds that are not safe for customer”s health. there is many methods for prevention of oxidation such synthetic antioxidants, (bha, bht, tbhq, gallatester).synthetic antioxidants, have undesirable effects such cancer, motation in human body, therefore it was removed fr...

Deep subsurface formations (for example, high-temperature oil reservoirs) are candidate sites for carbon capture and storage technology. However, very little is known about how the subsurface microbial community would respond to an increase in CO2 pressure resulting from carbon capture and storage. Here we construct microcosms mimicking reservoir conditions (55 °C, 5 MPa) using high-temperature...

Carbon dioxide capture and geological storage is an enabling technology that will allow the continued use well into this century of fossil fuels, mainly coal, for power generation and combustion in industrial processes because they are relatively abundant, cheap, available and globally distributed, thus enhancing the security and stability of energy systems. Geological media suitable for CO2 st...

Background: The Apiaceae family is defined with the diversity of essential oil. Some of composition could be used to control of storage pests. Objective: This study was conducted to estimate and identification of the seed essential oil composition of four Apiaceae species. Methods: The essential oil composition of the seeds of the four Apiaceae’s species including (Pimpinella anisum L., Foe...

Background: Natural antioxidants with plant origin are incorporated to foods in the forms of essential oils or extracts. They can retard lipid oxidation and control spoilage bacteria in foodstuffs (e.g. meat products). Objective: This work was aimed to evaluate the effect of nitrite partial replacement with Mentha piperita essential oil (MPEO) on oxidative, microbial and sensory properties of...

The effect of Cinnamomum zeylanicum essential oil (CZEO) at two concentrations (0.02% and 0.04% v/w) on chemical composition, pH, water activity (aw), lipid oxidation, color stability and sensory characteristics of Lyoner-type sausage stored at 4 ˚C for 40 days was investigated. The moisture content of the control sample was higher (p < 0.05) than CZEO incorporated samples, wh...

The major oil industry upstream activities include the exploration, drilling, extraction, pipelines installation, and production of crude oil. In this paper, we develop a mathematical model to plan for these operations as a crude oil supply chain network design problem. The proposed multi-period mixed integer linear programming model entails both strategic (e.g., facility location and allocatio...
