Recycled PET for Rice Husk/Polyester Composites

ASEAN Journal on Science and Technology for Development, 2007
Rice husks were combined with unsaturated polyester resin, synthesized from glycolysed product of poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) waste to form rice husk (RH)/polyester composites. PET from post-consumer soft drink bottles was recycled through glycolysis, followed by polyesterified with maleic anhydride and then cross-linked with styrene to ...

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, EarlyView.
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 ...

Optimising conditions for bioethanol production from rice husk and rice straw: effects of pre-treatment on liquor composition and fermentation inhibitors

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2018
Background Rice straw and husk are globally significant sources of cellulose-rich biomass and there is great interest in converting them to bioethanol. However, rice husk is reportedly much more recalcitrant than rice straw and produces larger quantities

Husk of rice as source of SiO2

Revista Facultad de Ingeniería Universidad de Antioquia, 2014
The husk of rice contains high levels of silica when calcined. This work was carried out to study the nature of the organic components where the silicon complexes are nucleated and the best conditions for the synthesis of SiO2. The husk of rice and silica were analized by SEM, DRX, FTIR, TGA. The husk was treated with HCl to eliminate impurities as Fe,

Beyond Gut Modulation: A Critical Review of the Therapeutic Potential, Safety, and Clinical Prospects of Natural Polysaccharides for IBD

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
In this review, we critically summarized the application of natural polysaccharides (NPs) for the treatment of IBD. This approach combines, in a unique way (right), the basic structure–activity relationships of NPs from different origins (left) with their multipronged mode of action, which involves modulation of the gut microbiota and other ...

Loss of zinc from zinc‐biofortified rice and conventional rice varieties due to various cooking techniques practiced in rural Bangladesh

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Zinc‐biofortified rice has the potential to provide a sustainable solution for zinc deficiency, particularly in Asian countries where rice is the primary staple food. However, cooking of raw rice is associated with some loss of micronutrients, including zinc.
