  2. Carbonatation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonatation

    The carbonatation process is used in the production of sugar from sugar beets.It involves the introduction of limewater (milk of lime - calcium hydroxide suspension) and carbon dioxide enriched gas into the "raw juice" (the sugar rich liquid prepared from the diffusion stage of the process) to form calcium carbonate and precipitate impurities that are then removed.

  3. Carbonization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonization

    Carbonization is a pyrolytic reaction, therefore, is considered a complex process in which many reactions take place concurrently such as dehydrogenation, condensation, hydrogen transfer and isomerization. Carbonization differs from coalification in that it occurs much faster, due to its reaction rate being faster by many orders of magnitude.

  4. Carbonation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonation

    Carbonation is the chemical reaction of carbon dioxide to give carbonates, bicarbonates, and carbonic acid. [1] In chemistry, the term is sometimes used in place of carboxylation, which refers to the formation of carboxylic acids. In inorganic chemistry and geology, carbonation is common.

  5. Sugarcane mill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sugarcane_mill

    To make plantation white sugar by carbonation requires changes to the purification, evaporation, and storage steps. In the purification step, the objective of carbonation is to separate non-sugar contents such as colloids and insoluble particles as well as colored material. [6]

  6. Biological carbon fixation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_carbon_fixation

    Cyanobacteria such as these carry out photosynthesis.Their emergence foreshadowed the evolution of many photosynthetic plants and oxygenated Earth's atmosphere.. Biological carbon fixation, or сarbon assimilation, is the process by which living organisms convert inorganic carbon (particularly carbon dioxide, CO 2) to organic compounds.

  7. Carbohydrate metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbohydrate_metabolism

    Glucose (blood sugar) is distributed to cells in the tissues, where it is broken down via cellular respiration, or stored as glycogen. [3] [4] In cellular (aerobic) respiration, glucose and oxygen are metabolized to release energy, with carbon dioxide and water as endproducts. [2] [4]

  8. Hydrothermal carbonization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrothermal_carbonization

    In addition, the resulting carbon mud can be made into briquettes and marketed as an environmentally friendly carbon dioxide-neutral "natural carbon" - Compared with the starting biomass, this can be dried by using deposition filtering or pressing with lower energy consumption and, due to its higher energy content per volume or mass, reduce ...

  9. Soft drink - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_drink

    Carbon dioxide is only weakly soluble in water; therefore, it separates into a gas when the pressure is released. The process usually involves injecting carbon dioxide under high pressure. When the pressure is removed, the carbon dioxide is released from the solution as small bubbles, which causes the solution to become effervescent, or fizzy.
