The potency of robusta coffee pulp as a vinegar product
(2023-11-30)
Coffee processing produces 40-50 % of by-products that can damage coffee plants and cause environmental pollution. The coffee pulp as waste can be used for producing acetic acid solution as a preservative and hand-washing agent to prevent infection. The fermentation process can affect the quality of the acetic acid solution. This study aims to analyse the effect of yeast types and time fermentation as well as to determine the characteristics of acetic acid solution from Robusta coffee pulp. The experiment consists ...

Cricket powder (Acheta domesticus) as a lean pork meat replacer in cooked sausages
(2023-08-29)
The incorporation of insects in everyday foods is a developing area. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the optimal percent replacement (5.0, 7.5 or 10.0%) of lean pork meat with cricket power (CP) in cooked sausages. For this purpose, the quality and safety were evaluated through the following parameters: pH, moisture, water activity, TBA value, colour (L*, a*, b*), texture and sensory profile, microbiological status and microstructure during seven-day cold storage. The pH of cooked sausages with CP ...

Textile Waste Becomes Plastic Composites
(2023-09)
Every year, large quantities of textiles end up in landfills or in thermal recycling. However, some of this waste could also serve as raw materials for composite materials. Left-over cotton fibers of the textile industry, for example, are suitable as reinforcing fibers that enhance the mechanical properties of bio-based plastics. By using such waste streams, materials can be reinforced in a cost-effective and bio-based way in the future.
