Application of a Cascade Refrigeration System for Storage of Hibiscus Tea (A Zobo Drink) for Human Consumption
Authors: Oginni Olarewaju T. , Akindele David O.
Published: January 2024

Since hibiscus tea is inexpensive, healthful, and has many nutritional benefits, individuals from various socioeconomic backgrounds frequently drink it. The main drawback of its large-scale manufacture is its short shelf life if not adequately chilled. In order to extend the shelf life of flavor-infused Zobo tea and conserve energy for mass production, the paper assesses the sensory properties of the tea in a cascade freezer and how much energy a convectional and cascade refrigeration system used. Within 120 minutes, a prepared hibiscus tea was frozen and kept at -15 0C for four days. After evaluation, the product's sensory quality was found to be suitable for ingestion. Over 72 hours, the natural flavor, color, and taste of Zobo drinks did not change. The cascade freezer only required 3 kg of fuel for two hours of operation as opposed to 7.5 kg of gasoline for six hours of operation for the LG freezer. The quick deep-freezing process reduced fuel expenditures while preserving the product's short shelf life. The energy used by the cascade freezer was 1600 MJ at a cost of #24000 per month, as opposed to a total of 11200 MJ at a cost of #204000 per month. The cascade refrigerator saved 100.4 GJ of energy annually at a cost of #218600. The machine's effectiveness and energy efficiency were rated at 75%. The outcome has improved the cold storage supply chain for Zobo products for usage in emerging and developing nations on a commercial basis and saved energy.

Published: January 2024

Cellular foods have a short shelf-life due to the high water content and activity of microorganisms. Their water content is known to be magnetized when they are exposed to electromagnetic field, which is beneficial to their freezing. Although, magnetized water contained in cellular foods benefits freezing, but pulsed magnetic field technique available generates irregular wave patterns that are not promising to modern days freezing market. Therefore, the current study focuses on development and performance evaluation of a microcontroller pulsed magnetic field (MPMF) device for assisting cellular foods freezing. The MPMF technology consists of four main components including the magnetic field treatment chamber (120 mm x 90 mm x 60 mm), four electromagnets, and a step down transformer, a rectifier, capacitors, diodes, and a timer. The technology was operated at a voltage range and current of 2, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 V, and 2.00, 12.60, 20.70, 28.60, 34.90, 38.60 A, respectively. The performance evaluation carried out on the machine includes magnetic field strengths and wave patterns. The results showed that the magnetic field strength varies between 9.15 to 42.96 T, and the wave patterns obtained were regular and satisfactorily. It is hope that the information on the development and evaluation of MPMF technique for assisting cellular foods freezing will be useful for the food industry

This research focuses on the simulation of ballistic impact on multi-layered ballistic resistant armour. The efficiency of spring-loaded backing plate armour was compared with armour that has solid end plate with a view to introducing a more elastic surface that enhances energy absorption properties. The design consists of three major layers of different materials: fibre cement as the first layer; Kevlar as the second; and a spring-loaded backing plate made of steel as the third layer. SolidWorks was used to model the multi-layered armour and ANSYS Workbench Explicit Dynamics and AUTODYN 3D solver were used to simulate the ballistic impact. The simulation involved testing different configurations of the multi-layered structure. Analysis of the effect of the spring wire diameter on the armour's energy-absorbing characteristics was carried out while keeping the overall weight within the acceptable range. The simulation results for the different configurations were compared and the ballistic-resistant armour designed with a spring-loaded backing plate of 0.40 mm spring wire diameter gave the least deformation. The research suggested an enhanced armour performance using embedded elastic material.

Published: January 2024

Nigeria is renowned for its vast production of paddy rice, resulting in a significant volume of rice husk generation. Consequently, the conversion of these quantities of rice husk into beneficial applications is imperative to mitigate environmental pollution. The rice husk, procured from local millers in Zaria market, Nigeria, was subjected to thermal and chemical methods to produce activated carbon. The carbonization process involved heating at three different temperatures (300, 350 and 400 ℃) and subsequent mixing with 1M H3PO4 at a 1:2 ratio. Batch adsorption experiments were conducted, varying dosages of rice husk activated carbon (1 - 5 g), lead initial concentrations (10 - 60 mg/l), and carbonization temperatures (300 - 400 ℃). The Response Surface Methodology was utilized to model the adsorption capacities and removal efficiencies obtained. At carbonization temperature of 350 ℃, initial lead concentration of 60 mg/l, and adsorbent dosage of 3 g, the optimum removal efficiency and adsorption capacity 100% and 1.690 mg/g, respectively were observed. The veracity of the model equations was confirmed through the verification of the optimum adsorption conditions, with recorded percentage errors of 0.253% and 17.988%, for removal efficiency and adsorption capacity, respectively. The study's findings showed that rice husk activated carbon was highly effective in removing lead from wastewater. Furthermore, the model equations demonstrated reliability in forecasting the responses, and the optimum conditions were deemed valid.

ABSRTACT

The need to extend the shelf life of tomatoes has arisen due to the issue of post-harvest losses. This has prompted an exploration into active packaging materials. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of silver nanoparticle packaging material on tomatoes. Freshly cleaned tomatoes were stored at room temperature using two types of packaging materials, namely Styrofoam and High-Density Plastic (HDP). These packaging materials were then either covered with nylon film infused with silver nanoparticles or with regular nylon film. The tomatoes were left in storage for a period of 9 days, during which changes in fruit mass, moisture content, firmness, and the number of damaged tomatoes were carefully assessed. After 9 days, the weight of tomatoes infused with nanoparticles is 142g to 96g compared to the normal condition of 150g to 40g for high-density plastic (HDP) and 166g to 86g compared to the normal condition of 114g to 64g for Styrofoam. Overall, the results of the study demonstrated that post-harvest preservation of tomatoes using the investigated techniques of Silver Nanoparticle under two packaging materials extended days of firmness and reduced mold concentration count by 50%, thereby reducing the number of losses by 65-70%. The results obtained provide highly useful information in the field of post-harvest storage and preservation.

Published: January 2024

The Walanae Watershed (DAS) is one of the Walanae – Cenranae Sub Watersheds in several districts, including Wajo, Soppeng, Bone, and Maros regencies. The river flow in the Walanae watershed flows from south to north and empties into Lake Tempe, Wajo Regency. The condition of Lake Tempe, which continues to experience silting due to erosion and sedimentation, is still happening. This siltation resulted in sediment discharges reaching 519,000 m3/year. This siltation can cause a narrowing of the lake area and flooding around Lake Tempe. The purpose of this study is to model erosion control in the Walanae watershed to reduce the level of siltation that occurs in Lake Tempe. Analysis of the erosion rate of the Walanae watershed using the USLE method. The analysis results show that the erosion rate that occurred in 2000 was 187.52 Tons / Ha / Yr, while in 2022, it was 253.336 Tons / Ha / Yr. Scenarios based on land conservation actions can reduce the erosion rate by 149,034 tons/ha / Year. The scenario was carried out by considering slope classes and land cover in the Walanae watershed.  In flat to gentle slope conditions, ground cover crops and livestock grazing are needed; in rice fields and dryland agriculture, rural and annuals and mulch reinforcement are needed. Conservation measures are needed in steep to very steep slope classes, such as bench terraces and plant cover crops for agricultural land cover. As for forest areas, permanent vegetation or agroforestry is needed.

An activity such as office meetings, gatherings, and business needs are often conducted outside the office premises. Various locations commonly used include halls, private meeting rooms, cafes, or other paid public spaces. However, booking these places can be time-consuming and costly. To address this issue, there is a need for an online platform that connects space owners and renters. Paketempat serves as an online platform where individuals, communities, organizations, or groups can find suitable locations for gatherings, meetings, or office purposes, with a different atmosphere and budget to match their needs (in the Malang and surrounding areas). The goal is for both renters and space owners to benefit from this platform. Renters can discover new environments for their events, find places that align with their theme and budget, and save time. Space owners can profit financially by utilizing and renting out their available spaces by the hour or day. From this application, several usability responses have been gathered from both owners and users of Paketempat. In general, the survey results, conducted through a Google form distributed to Paketempat users, have been positive, encompassing speed, completeness of information, and user interface.

Does Jobs without Boundaries within the Gig Economy a Paradox?
Authors: Patro Udaya Sankar
Published: January 2024

"The idea that individuals take ownership of their personal growth and, as a result, take control of improving their job competences has been a major tenet of proponents of what is known as the boundaryless professional view. In this provocative article, we discuss the barriers to and possible solutions for advancing boundaryless professions in the gig economy, which, although initially seeming to provide favourable circumstances for such occupations, is plagued by several variables that make these professions difficult. Therefore, it’s possible that professions without boundaries exist in the gig economy. Specifically, we hypothesise that gig workers’ employability is restricted by the acquisition of pertinent professional competences that are hindered by intra- and interorganizational career barriers. We then propose that, to reduce these limitations, we should think about eschewing employer-centric, conventional HRM methods and introducing new, network-based, self-organized HRM actions (in the form of collaborative communities of practice)."

Специфіка допомоги держав Заходу Україні у війні з Російською Федерацією
Authors: Лакішик Д.М.
Published: January 2024

У статті досліджуються особливості підтримки України провідними державами трансатлантичного регіону у війні з РФ. Зазначається, що найбільшу підтримку України з моменту повномасштабного вторгнення військ Росії здійснюють США, а також країни ЄС, зокрема Німеччина, Франція, Італія тощо. Окремо виділяється допомога, що надається Україні Великою Британією, яка має змогу діяти швидше й активніше поза структурою ЄС. Також наголошується на достатньо інтенсивній допомозі країн Скандинавії, які в тій чи іншій мірі, як самостійно так і в коаліції одна з одною, й іншими країнами Європи, доєднуються до спільних зусиль у протистоянні демократії диктатурі.

Констатується, що під кінець другого року війни України та РФ, постають певні питання щодо подальшої підтримки України партнерами – як змінюються ті чи інші пріоритети відповідно до внутрішньополітичної ситуації в певній країні. Зазначається, що попри різновекторність думок щодо подальшої допомоги Україні, все ж заяви лідерів країн, їх реальні кроки у формуванні безпекової політики, що мають на меті зміцнення їх обороноздатності, включно з поглибленням співпраці в оборонній сфері з Україною, дають підстави говорити про довгострокову перспективу їх підтримки української держави. Беззаперечною є теза про те, що нинішня трансформація міжнародного порядку залежить від того, як і наскільки рішуче проявлять себе країни Заходу у такого штибу дестабілізації, наскільки консолідованими будуть їх дії на захист демократичних цінностей на противагу зростаючому авторитаризму, адже війна в Україні є лише одним з проявів цього глобального протистояння.
Цілі та пріоритети зовнішньополітичної стратегії Нової Зеландії в контексті війни в Україні
Authors: Зернецька О.В. , Мирончук О.А.
Published: January 2024

У статті автори розглядають основні напрями зовнішньої політики Нової Зеландії в контексті повномасштабного російського вторгнення в Україну. Простежено сучасні заходи новозеландського уряду в контексті підтримки України у військовій та гуманітарній сферах. Зазначено, що військова допомога партнерів є однією з ключових для успіхів України на полі бою, а Збройні Сили України є єдиною європейською армією з досвідом повномасштабної війни з Росією, які продемонстрували, що здатні швидко опановувати зброю країн НАТО і використовувати її під час бойових дій. Тож Нова Зеландія надає Україні значну військову допомогу, постачаючи оснащення і зброю та беручи участь у програмах підготовки українських військових. Проаналізовано надане Новою Зеландією з початку війни й до кінця липня 2023 р. військове фінансування, фінансування гуманітарної допомоги Україні, та фінансування, виділене урядом країни на юридичну та адміністративну підтримку Міжнародного кримінального суду та офісу Верховного комісара з прав людини.

До переліку основних напрямів підтримки України включено дипломатичні, політичні, військові та гуманітарні заходи. Наголошено, що особливу увагу уряд Нової Зеландії приділяє санкційній політиці щодо Росії та її ефективності. Проаналізовано концептуальні підходи, закладені в Законі Нової Зеландії про санкції – основному документі, який визначає санкційну політику проти Росії. Значну увагу зосереджено на тенденціях посилення та розширення санкційних заходів. У ставленні уряду Нової Зеландії до російсько-української війни зроблено акцент на тому, що за своїм значенням ця проблема виходить за межі європейської безпеки. Наголошено, що стосовно України уряд Нової Зеландії декларує надання і реалізує на практиці всебічну широкомасштабну підтримку.

Відзначено рішення уряду Нової Зеландії наприкінці 2022 р., яке унаочнює багатоаспектність додаткової підтримкиУкраїни у таких сферах, як навчання українських воїнів, розвідка, командно-адміністративна підтримка, логістика, зв’язок, підтримка глобальної продовольчої безпеки, Трастовий фонд НАТО і розкрита їх конкретна сутність.

Доведено, що дипломатична підтримка Новою Зеландією України здійснюється на різних рівнях та у різних форматах, що сприяє дієвості підтримки України з одного боку і сприяє зростанню міжнародного авторитету Нової Зеландії в світі, яка проводить політику, відстоюючи права України на незалежність – з іншого.

Окреслено пріоритети Нової Зеландії у сфері міжнародної безпеки та перелік форм реагування на новітні загрози. Зазначено, що головним пріоритетом стратегії Нової Зеландії в реагуванні на зовнішні виклики є протидія російській агресивній політиці, здатній змінити міжнародний порядок. Нова Зеландія розглядає Росію як безпосередню й постійну загрозу міжнародному миру, яка своїми агресивними діями порушує основні принципи Статуту ООН і має відповідати за свої злочинні дії.

У статті комплексно висвітлюються поетапні зміни у відносинах Камбоджі й КНР (з кінця ХХ ст.), унаслідок яких сформувалися їхні «особливі» відносини, і чинники, які на це впливали; оцінюється їхнє двостороннє і регіональне значення. Розвиток відносин розглядається на тлі внутрішніх процесів у Камбоджі, змін у політиці КНР у Південно-Східній Азії, міжнародної ситуації у регіоні.

Важливими віхами на шляху формування «особливих» двосторонніх відносин були: події в Камбоджі у липні 1997 р., унаслідок яких уряд одноосібно очолив Хун Сен; перший візит Голови КНР Цзян Цземіня в Камбоджу в листопаді 2000 р.; угоди про «усебічне партнерство співробітництва» (квітень 2008 р.) й «усебічне стратегічне партнерство співробітництва» (грудень 2010 р.); головування Камбоджі в АСЕАН у 2012 р., коли вона повністю підтримала КНР у територіальних диспутах в Південно-Китайському морі, на противагу інтересам окремих держав-членів АСЕАН; політична криза у Камбоджі 2013–2014 рр.; двостороння домовленість 2019 р. про створення «спільноти спільного майбутнього зі стратегічним значенням».

Політична підтримка, гранти, пільгові кредити і допомога КНР у реалізації великих інфраструктурних проектів мали суттєвий позитивний вплив на економічний розвиток Камбоджі. Водночас це призвело до залежності Камбоджі від Китаю. На відміну від АСЕАН та держав-членів, які реалізовують стратегію хеджування, Камбоджа зайняла повністю про-китайську позицію. Відносини з КНР стали для неї більш важливими, ніж з іншими державами АСЕАН. Унаслідок цього вона може заблокувати будь-яке рішення АСЕАН, що не відповідає інтересам Китаю. Це підриває єдність АСЕАН і суттєво зміцнює регіональні позиції КНР. Крім того, «особливі» відносини з Камбоджею забезпечують Китаю доступ до важливих стратегічних портів цієї держави в торговельно-економічних і військових цілях для реалізації своїх економічних і стратегічних регіональних інтересів.

The main purpose of the article is to form the strategy for effective management of organizational change for agricultural enterprise. The set purpose is achieved through the use of a specific methodology, which includes the method of functional modeling of the IDEF0 standard. The object of the study is the functioning system of a separate agricultural enterprise. As a result of the study the most optimal strategy was formed. This methodology will not only optimize the work of modern agricultural enterprises, developing their safety and engineering aspects, but also, to some extent, normalize the development of the regional agricultural sector in which the enterprise operates. This strategy has three key directions, the implementation of which will fully ensure the normal functioning and development of the agricultural enterprise. The study has its limitations, since to form this model only the activities of one agricultural enterprise in Poland were taken into account; this model may be somewhat limited in use for other enterprises. In this regard, the prospects for subsequent research should be to expand the boundaries of the use of this model to the specifics of the functioning of the agricultural sectors of other countries.

The problems of using databases in the crime scene analysis are due to changes in the structure of crime, adaptation of innovative technologies to the needs of law enforcement, and protection of human rights. The complex of these aspects determines the relevance of the topic. The aim of the study is identifying the peculiarities of using databases in the crime scene analysis and the prospects for improving law enforcement activities with a view to crime trends. The research employed logical, comparative methods, forecasting. It was revealed that the mechanism of database creation and use is aimed at the fulfilment of the tasks of working with traces at the crime scene. Correspondence of databases to the needs of law enforcement activities is assessed through criteria grouped into resource, organizational and regulatory clusters. Prospective databases should take crime trends into account. The latest methods of working with traces are the final stage of the adaptation of research in the field of criminal justice. The academic novelty of the study consists in a critical examination of the use of databases in the crime scene analysis as a complex of the issues of communications and innovations in law enforcement activities. The study opens up prospects for the development of unified algorithms for information exchange for counteraction to transnational crime.

El agua es un elemento indispensable para las personas, así como para el sostenimiento de la vida en el planeta. De esta forma, debido a la contaminación que puede sufrir el agua de tipo químico o biológico, es necesario tener conocimiento sobre su disponibilidad en función de sus características de calidad. En consecuencia, los modelos estadísticos son el medio pertinente para realizar una evaluación y estimaciones futuras sobre la calidad de las aguas superficiales. Por tanto, el presente trabajo va encaminado a formular un modelo estadístico que permita determinar el grado de contaminación de las aguas del estero El Macho, ubicado en la ciudad de Machala, provincia de El Oro. La metodología aplicada fue de tipo básico, ya que se realizó una búsqueda de fundamentos teóricos que permitan profundizan en la modelación estadística para estudios de calidad del agua. El diseño de la investigación es correlacional bajo un modelo estadístico multivariante de regresión lineal múltiple. El modelo de regresión lineal múltiple unificado concluyó que la demanda bioquímica de oxígeno determina en forma significativa la calidad del agua del estero, de acuerdo al parámetro químico demanda química oxígeno y el parámetro físico sólidos disueltos totales. El coeficiente de determinación indica que estas variables explican el 99,9% de la variación de la variable dependiente.
