  2. Colloid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colloid

    A colloid is a mixture in which one substance consisting of microscopically dispersed insoluble particles is suspended throughout another substance. Some definitions specify that the particles must be dispersed in a liquid , [ 1 ] while others extend the definition to include substances like aerosols and gels .

  4. Aseptic processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aseptic_processing

    Aseptic processing was derived from Olin Ball's heat-cool-fill (HCF) machine that was developed in 1927. [5] While HCF was successful in improving the sensory quality of the processed chocolate milk as compared to canned product, the use of the equipment was hindered by its cost, maintenance, and inflexibility to process various container sizes, rendering the machine a failure.

  5. Mechanical biological treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_biological...

    A mechanical biological treatment (MBT) system is a type of waste processing facility that combines a sorting facility with a form of biological treatment such as composting or anaerobic digestion. MBT plants are designed to process mixed household waste as well as commercial and industrial wastes .

    Food recovered by food waste critic Robin Greenfield in Madison, Wisconsin, from two days of recovery from dumpsters [1]. The causes of food going uneaten are numerous and occur throughout the food system, during production, processing, distribution, retail and food service sales, and consumption.

    Additionally, the hurdle effect of food preservation, such as by adding lactic acid bacteria and salt to a food product, is illustrated and described. [ 11 ] [ 12 ] [ 13 ] This figure illustrates the pathway of food preservation followed by lactic acid bacteria involving nisin , as well as the pathway of food preservation followed by salt.

  8. Secondary treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_treatment

    An example for an anaerobic secondary treatment system is the upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor. Fixed-film systems are more able to cope with drastic changes in the amount of biological material and can provide higher removal rates for organic material and suspended solids than suspended growth systems.

  9. Solid solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_solution

    The IUPAC definition of a solid solution is a "solid in which components are compatible and form a unique phase". [3]The definition "crystal containing a second constituent which fits into and is distributed in the lattice of the host crystal" given in refs., [4] [5] is not general and, thus, is not recommended.
