Rethinking ethanol separation in continuous spirit production from a process intensification perspective

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract Continuous neutral‐alcohol and food‐grade ethanol production is an energy‐intensive process in which distillation and rectification alone account for 50–85% of total plant energy use. While significant advances in separation technology have emerged over the past two decades, the spirits industry continues to rely predominantly on multi‐effect ...

Influence of the growing area on cone yield and alpha and beta acid content in Cascade hops: An Italian case study

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Territorial food production is a well‐known quality trait, which is attracting new customer preferences for different agricultural products. In this context, many microbreweries and agricultural breweries started to cultivate their own small hopyard to exploit the so‐called “terroir” effect.

Hop production in a low‐trellis espalier system in the subtropical environment

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Hop cultivation (Humulus lupulus L.) is expanding into new regions, particularly under subtropical conditions. Traditionally, hop plants are trained using high‐trellis systems; however, a low‐trellis espalier structure may reduce establishment costs, facilitate phytosanitary management, and improve harvest uniformity.

Humidity Ramp Protocols Systematically Underestimate Human Heat Tolerance Limits

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Short dwell times in humidity‐ramp protocols (Δt/τ≪1 ${\Delta }t/\tau \mathit{\ll }1$) prevent human core temperature from reaching equilibrium, causing premature inflection points and systematic underestimation of critical environmental limits by ∼3°C–4°C.

Resource Availability Modulates Effects of Fluorine Free Firefighting Foams

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fluorine‐free foam (F3) alternatives that lack per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are rapidly being adopted for firefighting operations and will be entering ecosystems. Despite this, little is known about their impact on freshwater communities.

Soil and microbial responses to wild ungulate trampling depend more on ecosystem type than trampling severity

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Physical trampling is a ubiquitous activity of walking vertebrates, but is poorly understood as a mechanism impacting biogeochemical cycling in soil. Lack of detailed knowledge of soil abiotic–biotic interactions underlying trampling effects, and the primary sources of ...
