Dill (Anethum graveolens L.) is a popular herb used in many regions, including Baltic countries. Dill is widely used for flavoring foods and beverages due to its pleasant spicy aroma. The aim of this work was to determine the best blanching method for processing of dill prior to microwave vacuum drying based on sensory properties, color and volatile compounds in dried product. Two blanching med...

Abstract Aim of the study was to assess suitability combined use microwave radiation and sodium cumene sulfonate under optimized process conditions for preparation maize stillage biomass as a raw material production cellulosic ethanol. The key parameter guaranteeing high level lignin removal from (ca. 44%) concentration hydrotrope. Even at (16% w/v) cellulase enzyme dose about 4 filter-paper un...

Indian high-ash coal contains alpha-silica components of the mineral matter. When coal is transported in the form of a slurry, alpha-silica adds to the settling properties of coal and enhances erosion of pipelines. As such any technique that will contribute to changing the characteristics of mineral matter by selective demineralization is bound to supplement the knowledge of coal slurries in th...

Abstract Various means have been proposed to solve problems such as high ash content and complex composition in the recycling of nickel-containing residue produced by battery manufacturing enterprises. Microwave roasting pretreatment is improve nickel leaching rate from residue. The effect different experimental conditions like microwave temperatures, times, powers on was studied. It found that...

Rice straw (RS) is the most potentially renewable agricultural waste resource widely distributed in nature. Considering complex recalcitrant structure and components of RS, three pretreatment methods, including high-temperature hydrothermal, medium-temperature microwave, low-temperature cryocrushing were performed. The RS residues examined analyzed after pretreatments. Pretreatment with hydroth...

Microwave heating treatment was the one type of pretreatment process used in manufacture bioethanol because it can be applied singly or combination with other chemicals. The purpose this study to determine effect microwave on using acid and alkaline solvents. research carried out two stages, namely preparation raw materials microwave. At stage materials, bagasse dried for 2 days then crushed a ...
