introduction: tracking temporal changes of temperature during laser skin treatment plays an important role in improving the process of laser skin treatment itself. there are a number of methods to analyze temperature’s temporal dependency during laser skin treatment; some of those methods depend on imaging the skin with thermal cameras. however, the use of thermal cameras exhibits specific prob...

Thermal processing of the key lime juice leads to the inactivation of pectin methylesterase (PME) and the degradation of ascorbic acid (AA). These changes affect directly the cloud stability and color of the juice. In this study, an artificial neural network (ANN) model was applied for designing and developing an intelligent system for prediction of the thermal processing effects on the physico...

the effect of pulse electric field on mass transfer in sugar beet cossettes with different thicknesses were investigated and compared with traditional thermal processing. two kinds of sugar beet cossettes 3±0.5 cm and 2±0.5 thicknesses with 3–5 cm long subjected to pulse electric field (3kv, 8 µf, and 20 pulse) and compared with heat treated samples (80ºc for15 minutes) as conventional thermal ...

Background: Pineapple juice processing is an art of preservation, and the processing technologies play important role in pineapple juice quality. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the potential impacts of non-thermal processing methods on the physicochemical, bioactive, and microbiological properties of fresh pineapple juice. Methods: Extracted juices were subjected to several non-thermal...

farming organic vegetable and crops have grown as a market desiring commodity. weed control in farms has been costly and laborous and it has always been hard to achieve a proper weeding. a few chemicals are commonly applied in organic farming. thermal weeding with flame burners seems a good solution; however, it has its own drawbacks, such as; damaging the main crops, low performance, being inf...

Continuously shrinking device parameters and the enlargement of wafer diameters in semiconductor industry require best temperature homogeneity in Rapid Thermal Processing (RTP). This together with the requirement of high ramp rates in the range of 200 °C s as advantageously used in ultra shallow junction processes [1] challenges temperature control in RTP technology. In order to design advanced...
