There has been a concern that Clostridium botulinum might enter a defective can of low-acid food through a microleak after thermal processing and during the cooling process. This paper reviews most current surveys on bacteriological quality of cannery cooling water, bacteriological testing methods in cannery cooling water, disinfection of container cooling water in canning systems, and common t...

Increasing attention has been given to energy utilization in Turkey. In this report, we present an energy efficiency evaluation and economic feasibility analysis of a geothermal heating and cooling system (GSHP) and a mechanical compression water chiller system (ACHP) to improve the energy utilization efficiency and reduce the primary energy demand for industrial use. Analyses of a mechanical w...

A simple effect one stage ammonia-water absorption cooling system fueled by solar energy is analyzed. The considered system is composed by a parabolic trough collector concentrating solar energy into a tubular receiver for heating water. This is stored in a fully mixed thermal storage tank and used in the vapor generator of the absorption cooling system. Time dependent cooling load is considere...
