Quality of Coconut Shell and Kusambi Liquid Smoke as Raw Materials for Processed Meat Smoking: Effect of Different Types of Filtration Adsorbents | Chapter 4 | Current Perspectives in Agriculture and Food Science Vol. 5

This research was administered to learn nearly the effect of filtration methods using differing types of adsorbents on the quality of top part of an animate body shell liquid fume and kusambi as raw materials for healing processed meat. Global core consumption persists to grow converging of the highest rates compared to some other land commodity on account of increasing incomes, changeful consumer preferences in many arising economies, and threatening costs of meat result and meat prices. The research procedure used in this study was an exploratory method, accompanying a factorial Randomized Block Design (RBD). For each category of liquid fume, there are three different types of situation options: the first is an adsorbent-only situation for liquid smoke, attended by zeolite adsorbent treatment, silica adsorbent situation, and activated charcoal adsorbent situation. Different liquid smoke types and adsorbent filtration systems had a very significant impact (P0.01) on the number of antioxidants, total acid, particular gravity, tar, phenol content, pH, salinity, TDS, total yield, L* and b* color, hedonistic color, and smokey scent in the resulting liquid fume, according to an reasoning of variance.Analysis of difference revealed that the various liquid fume varieties had no statistically meaningful impact (P0.05), but that the filtration process using differing adsorbents had a highly important impact (P0.01) on viscosity. Additionally, the analysis of difference revealed that the miscellaneous liquid smoke sorts and the filtration of various adsorbents had no discernible impact (P0.05) on the last liquid smoke's color a*. The antioxidant, total acid, specific importance, tar, phenol content, pH, salinity, TDS, total yield, L* and b* color, sybaritic color, and smoke aroma in the liquid fume produced were all considerably affected for one various types of liquid smoke and by virtue of what they were treated accompanying adsorbents (P0.01). Although the various liquid cigarette varieties acted not significantly affect the definitive viscosity (P0.05), the differing types of adsorbents used in the liquid cigarette filtration procedure did considerably affect the stickiness (P0.01). The value of color a* or the blushing hue of the liquid fume, however, were not significantly troubled by the miscellaneous types of liquid smoke or adsorbents secondhand in the liquid smoke filtration process (P0.05).

Sustainable Utilization of Rice Husk Activated Charcoal as Wastewater Decontaminant | Chapter 12 | New Insights into Physical Science Vol. 2

Activated charcoal is used in water, gold and gas purification, metal extraction, medicine, sewage treatment, filters in compressed air, air filters in gas masks and respirators, and many other applications. Due to its high demand, alternative means of production apart from non-renewable sources, is time honoured. In view of these facts, activated charcoal was prepared from rice husk, an agricultural waste, by pyrolysis and chemical activation. The optimum systematic preparation conditions such as the effects of impregnation ratio, concentration, temperature and pyrolysis temperature and time on the efficiency of the product were investigated. The chemically activated charcoal was characterized by measuring porosity, bulk density, pore volume and size, surface area, iodine number, percentage yield, ash and moisture contents. The adsorbent was further characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The performance of activated charcoal prepared as adsorbent of pollutants in wastewater was tested using standard analytical methods. Overall, the results revealed that there was a general significant (p<0.05) decrease in the total hardness, alkanility, chemical  oxygen demand, biological oxygen demand, nitrate, total dissolved solid, total suspended solid, total solid, sulphate, nitrate, chloride, and heavy metals in rice husk acivated charcoal treated filtrate when compared to the untreated. Although, values of physicochemical parameters obtained in filtrate fromthe rice husk-based activated charcoal were generally lower than that of the commercial (control), the differences were not statistically significant (p>0.05). The results indicated that wastewater treated with the adsorbent were below the recommendations of international standards for maximum limits of effluent to be discharged into sewage, stream and drinking water. The study therefore recommends the use of rice husk-based activated charcoal as an efficient and environmental friendly wastewater treament option.
