Supercritical Fluid Extraction of Nutraceuticals and Bioactive Compounds

Supercritical Fluid Extraction of Nutraceuticals and Bioactive Compounds

Enhanced concern for the quality and safety of food products increased preference for natural products and stricter regulations on the residual level of solvents all contribute to the growing use of supercritical fluid technology as a primary alternative for the extraction fractionation and isolation of active ingredients. As a solvent-free process supercritical fluid technology is a popular answer for the functional foods and nutraceutical sector one of the fastest growing consumer driven markets. Recent advancements in the technology and increased utilization of the process demand a comprehensive single-source review of current and future trends in supercritical fluid technology. Compiling contributions from international experts in the field Supercritical Fluid Extraction of Nutraceuticals and Bioactive Compounds presents the state-of-the-science in the extraction and fractionation of bioactive ingredients by supercritical fluids. Focusing on implemented industrial processes and trends it reviews the fundamentals of the technology and examines the economics of supercritical fluid extraction systems and processes. Over the course of twelve chapters the book presents the supercritical fluid extraction processes in edible oils including fish oils and specialty oils; herbs such as Latin American plants and those used in Traditional Chinese Medicine; algae; spices; antioxidants and essential oils; as well as the processing of micro and nano-scale materials by supercritical fluid technology. Each chapter covers the major active components in the target material including chemical physical nutritional and pharmaceutical properties; an analysis of the specific supercritical fluid process used; a comparison of traditional processing methods versus supercritical fluid technology; and a set of conclusions with supporting data and insight.

Environmental Fluid Mechanics - Méchanique des Fluides Environnementaux

Dams are planned constructed and operated to meet human needs - generation of energy irrigated agricultural production flood control public and industrial supply supply of drinking water and various other purposes. Dams impound water in reservoirs during times of high flood that can be used for human requirements during times with inadequate natural flows. Positive impacts of dams are improved flood control improved welfare resulting from new access to irrigation and drinking water. Without dams there would be insufficient food to feed the world’s people and energy would be generated by burning fossil fuels that produce greenhouse gases. Despite this progress there remain significant concerns about the environmental impacts of dams. These environmental impacts are complex and far reaching remote of the dam and may occur in time with the dam construction or later and may lead to a loss of biodiversity and of productivity of natural resources. This bulletin compiles improvements in knowledge and state of the art technology to avoid or mitigate environmental impacts of dams on the natural ecosystem as well as to the people that depend upon them for their livelihood and also addresses the mitigation of environmental impacts on dams and reservoirs. Les barrages sont planifiés construits et exploités de manière à répondre aux besoins humains. Les barrages retiennent l'eau dans les réservoirs pendant les périodes de forte crue une eau qui peut être utilisée pour les besoins de l'homme pendant les périodes d’insuffisance des débits naturels. Les impacts positifs de barrages sont le contrôle des crues et l'amélioration du bien-être résultant du nouvel accès à l'irrigation et à l'eau potable. Sans barrages la production alimentaire serait insuffisante pour nourrir la population du globe et l'énergie serait générée en brûlant des combustibles fossiles qui produisent des gaz à effet de serre. Malgré ces progrès d'importantes préoccupations subsistent quant aux retombées des barrages sur l’environnement. Les impacts environnementaux sont complexes et d’une grande portée. Ils peuvent se produire au moment de la construction du barrage ou plus tard et peuvent entraîner une perte de la biodiversité et de la productivité des ressources naturelles. Le présent bulletin compile l'amélioration des connaissances et des technologies les plus récentes pour éviter ou atténuer les impacts environnementaux des barrages sur l'écosystème naturel ainsi que pour les personnes qui en dépendent pour leur subsistance. Il aborde également l'atténuation des impacts environnementaux sur les barrages et les réservoirs. | Environmental Fluid Mechanics - Méchanique des Fluides Environnementaux

Vapor Compression Heat Pumps with Refrigerant Mixtures

Vapor Compression Heat Pumps with Refrigerant Mixtures

Amidst tightening requirements for eliminating CFC’s HCFC’s halons and HFC’s from use in air conditioning and heat pumps the search began for replacements that are environmentally benign non-flammable and similar to the banned refrigerants in system-level behavior. Refrigerant mixtures are increasingly used as working fluids because they demonstrate desirable thermodynamic feasibility and safety characteristics. Vapor Compression Heat Pumps with Refrigerant Mixtures provides the first comprehensive single-source treatment of working fluid mixtures and their applications in vapor compression systems. The authors explain in detail the thermodynamics of refrigerant mixtures which is vastly more complex than that of individual refrigerants as well as the fundamentals of various refrigeration cycles and methods for improving their efficiency. They also include important discussions on heat transfer and pressure drop correlations experimental performance measurements and examples of using refrigerants and their mixtures and critical operational issues such as control issues refrigerant mixing and mass fraction shifts. Assembling reviews of the scattered literature on the subject and reflecting two decades of research by the authors Vapor Compression Heat Pumps with Refrigerant Mixtures prepares you to design and implement systems that take the best advantage of fluid mixtures confronting the challenges and grasping the opportunities that they present.
