  2. Brining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brining

    The increased salinity of the cell fluid causes the cell to absorb water from the brine via osmosis. [2] The salt introduced into the cell denatures its proteins. [2] The proteins coagulate, forming a matrix that traps water molecules and holds them during cooking. [6] This prevents the meat from dehydrating.

  3. Bain-marie - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bain-marie

    A bain-marie (English: / ˌ b æ n m ə ˈ r iː / BAN-mə-REE, French: [bɛ̃ maʁi]), also known as a water bath or double boiler, a type of heated bath, is a piece of equipment used in science, industry, and cooking to heat materials gently or to keep materials warm over a period of time. A bain-marie is also used to melt ingredients for ...

  4. Osmosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmosis

    The process of osmosis over a semipermeable membrane.The blue dots represent particles driving the osmotic gradient. Osmosis (/ ɒ z ˈ m oʊ s ɪ s /, US also / ɒ s-/) [1] is the spontaneous net movement or diffusion of solvent molecules through a selectively-permeable membrane from a region of high water potential (region of lower solute concentration) to a region of low water potential ...

  5. Osmotic pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmotic_pressure

    Osmotic pressure is the basis of filtering ("reverse osmosis"), a process commonly used in water purification. The water to be purified is placed in a chamber and put under an amount of pressure greater than the osmotic pressure exerted by the water and the solutes dissolved in it.

  6. Reverse osmosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_osmosis

    Brackish water reverse osmosis (BWRO) is the desalination of water with less salt than seawater, usually from river estuaries or saline wells. The process is substantially the same as SWRO, but requires lower pressures and less energy. [1] Up to 80% of the feed water input can be recovered as fresh water, depending on feed salinity.

  7. Forward osmosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forward_osmosis

    This allows, for example, the ingestion of water from surface waters (streams, ponds, puddles, etc.) that may be expected to contain pathogens or toxins that are readily rejected by the FO membrane. With sufficient contact time, such water will permeate the membrane bag into the draw solution, leaving the undesirable feed constituents behind.

  8. Osmotic dehydration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmotic_dehydration

    Osmotic dehydration is an operation used for the partial removal of water from plant tissues by immersion in a hypertonic solution. Sugar or salt solutions are used to reduce the moisture content of foods before actual drying process. This technique is used to give the product quality improvement over conventional drying process.

  9. Osmoregulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmoregulation

    Osmoregulation is the active regulation of the osmotic pressure of an organism's body fluids, detected by osmoreceptors, to maintain the homeostasis of the organism's water content; that is, it maintains the fluid balance and the concentration of electrolytes (salts in solution which in this case is represented by body fluid) to keep the body fluids from becoming too diluted or concentrated.
