Operationalising Circular Economy Through Social Innovation: A Systems Thinking‐Based Model for Sustainability Transitions

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Social innovation (SI) is increasingly recognised as an important enabler of circular economy (CE) transitions. However, existing research offers limited explanation of the processes through which SI operationalises CE principles, as SI and CE have largely evolved in parallel and existing conceptualisations remain predominantly descriptive ...

Activated carbons made from cocoa (Theobroma cacao) and coconut (Cocos nucifera) shells can be used as adsorbents to improve the quality of frying oils

Food Biomacromolecules, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 544-553, September 2026.
Carbonised cocoa shells and carbonised coconut shells have a high level of porosity and a large adsorption surface area. Activated carbons made from cocoa and from the mixture cocoa–coconut shells at 15% demonstrated their ability to reduce primary and secondary oxidation products in frying oils and improves the organoleptic properties of fried foods ...

Characterization of Powdered Roasted Açaí Seeds (Euterpe oleracea Mart.): Impact on Bioactive Compounds and Nutritional Potential

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Roasting enhanced the functional potential of açaí (Euterpe oleracea Mart.) seeds, yielding a fiber‐rich powder with relevant minerals and bioactive compounds. Both lipid and aqueous extracts showed high phenolic contents and antioxidant activity, while the lipid fraction provided vitamin E‐active compounds and valuable fatty acids.

Quality‐driven reformulation of Plantago ovata enriched non‐fermented beef salami

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 12, Page 7245-7256, September 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Plantago ovata (psyllium) is a hydrocolloid additive that is used widely in foods; however, meat applications of this bioactive ingredient are limited. This study evaluated the effects of 0% to 5% Plantago husk on non‐fermented beef salami during 60 days of storage. Proximate composition, physicochemical properties, texture profile,

The suitability of optional material as a replacement for coir dust in raising coconut seedlings in polybags [PDF]

, 1997
Although coir dust is recommended in the current potting mixture for raising coconut seedlings in polybags, it is becoming a scarce resource even within the coconut triangle. Therefore it was considered imperative to test the suitability of other options
