  2. Food packaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_packaging

    Testing modified atmosphere in a plastic bag of carrots. Food packaging is a packaging system specifically designed for food and represents one of the most important aspects among the processes involved in the food industry, as it provides protection from chemical, biological and physical alterations.

  3. Olefin conversion technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olefin_conversion_technology

    In ETP, ethylene is dimerized to 1-butene, which is isomerized to 2-butenes. The 2-butenes are then subjected to metathesis with ethylene. Rhenium- and molybdenum-containing heterogeneous catalysis are used. Nowadays, only the "reverse" reaction is practiced, i.e., the conversion of ethylene and 2-butene to propylene: [2]

  4. Ethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene

    Ethylene is a hormone that affects the ripening and flowering of many plants. It is widely used to control freshness in horticulture and fruits. [20] The scrubbing of naturally occurring ethylene delays ripening. [21] Adsorption of ethylene by nets coated in titanium dioxide gel has also been shown to be effective. [22]

  5. Modified atmosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modified_atmosphere

    Traditionally used packaging films like LDPE (low-density polyethylene), PVC (polyvinyl chloride), EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate) and OPP (oriented polypropylene) are not permeable enough for highly respiring products like fresh-cut produce, mushrooms and broccoli. As fruits and vegetables are respiring products, there is a need to transmit gases ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosch_(company)

    Robert Bosch GmbH (/ b ɒ ʃ /; German: ⓘ), commonly known as Bosch (styled BOSCH), is a German multinational engineering and technology company headquartered in Gerlingen, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. The company was founded by Robert Bosch in Stuttgart in 1886. [2] Bosch is 94% owned by the Robert Bosch Stiftung, a charitable institution. [3]

  7. Olefin metathesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olefin_metathesis

    This process interconverts propylene with ethylene and 2-butenes. Rhenium and molybdenum catalysts are used. Nowadays, only the reverse reaction, i.e., the conversion of ethylene and 2-butene to propylene is industrially practiced, however. [6] Shell higher olefin process (SHOP) produces (alpha-olefins) for conversion to detergents. The process ...

  8. Ethylene signaling pathway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene_signaling_pathway

    Ethylene chemical structure. Ethylene signaling pathway is a signal transduction in plant cells to regulate important growth and developmental processes. [1] [2] Acting as a plant hormone, the gas ethylene is responsible for promoting the germination of seeds, ripening of fruits, the opening of flowers, the abscission (or shedding) of leaves and stress responses. [3]

  9. Jetronic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jetronic

    Jetronic is a trade name of a manifold injection technology for automotive petrol engines, developed and marketed by Robert Bosch GmbH from the 1960s onwards. Bosch licensed the concept to many automobile manufacturers. There are several variations of the technology offering technological development and refinement.
