This book is a collection of original research and review papers that report on the state of the art and recent advancements in food and agriculture engineering, such as sustainable production and food technology. Encompassed within are applications in food and agriculture engineering, biosystem engineering, plant and animal production engineering, food and agricultural processing engineering, storing industry, economics and production management and agricultural farms management, agricultural machines and devices, and IT for agricultural engineering and ergonomics in agriculture.
This volume gathers the latest advances, innovations, and applications in the field of sustainable and smart agriculture, as presented by leading researchers at the XI Farm Machinery and Processes Management in Sustainable Agriculture (FMPMSA), held in Bari, Italy on June 13-15, 2022. The volume covers highly diverse topics, including: management of field and livestock production machinery; management of biomass and agroenergy production; plant protection, soil management and agrochemicals application; smart farming and sustainability; ergonomic, labour organization, pandemic impact; sustainable agriculture in the European Union and other countries. The papers, which are published after a rigorous international peer-review process, highlight numerous exciting ideas that will spur novel research directions and foster multidisciplinary collaboration among different specialists.
Una narrazione documentata di uno dei più clamorosi errori della scienza moderna. Una critica delle linee guida nutrizionali divulgate dalle organizzazioni, a partire dall’OMS, che si occupano di salute. Una chiara spiegazione di come il cibo stia contribuendo all’inarrestabile crescita di obesità, diabete e di altri flagelli sanitari, le “pandemie della civilizzazione”. Un esame puntuale dei paradigmi scientifici e delle prassi mediche che stanno portando al collasso i sistemi sanitari. Crollano indiscussi miti contemporanei, a partire dall’importanza della prima colazione per arrivare al culto della dieta mediterranea. Luigi Rigolio, laureato in Storia della Filosofia antica, con interesse per l’Epistemologia, la Storia della Scienza e della Medicina, vanta una lunga esperienza lavorativa nel farmaceutico e nella ricerca clinica. Cultore dei testi tradizionali, ha pubblicato Omero Psicologo, Ritter Editore (2020). Docente di Marketing sanitario presso l’Università degli Studi dell’Insubria, vive e lavora in provincia di Varese.
Handbook of Plant-Based Food and Drinks Design discusses conventional and emerging technologies for plant-based ingredient improvement (yield, nutritional composition and functional properties) while considering food safety, sustainability, and social impact to explore current and potential markets through research and innovation. Divided in 7 sections, the book covers Plant sources for functional ingredients, Processing plant-based sources, Plant-based food design to replace/mimic animal food, Innovation in plant-based food, The promise of parity, Safety and regulations of plant-based foods, Social, environmental, and economic impact, and more. Written by a team of experts in the field, this book can be a good support for researchers and scientists working with plant-based food, drinks, and market trends. - Brings a critical overview about the health-beneficial compounds of plant-based sources - Offers guidelines on how to formulate plant-based food or a food alternative - Discusses the transition towards more plant-based diets on nutrition, economy climate change, health, and sustainability

This volume presents refereed papers based on the oral and poster presentations at the 4th International Conference on Renewable Energy Sources, which was held from June 20 to 23, 2017 in Krynica, Poland. The scope of the conference included a wide range of topics in renewable energy technology, with a major focus on biomass and solar energy, but also extending to geothermal energy, heat pumps, fuel cells, wind energy, energy storage, and the modeling and optimization of renewable energy systems. The conference had the unique goal of gathering Polish and international researchers’ perspectives on renewable energy sources, and furthermore of balancing them against governmental policy consid...

Nowhere has the divide between advocates and critics of globalization been more striking than in debates over free trade and the environment. And yet the literature on the subject is high on rhetoric and low on results. This book is the first to systematically investigate the subject using both economic theory and empirical analysis. Brian Copeland and Scott Taylor establish a powerful theoretical framework for examining the impact of international trade on local pollution levels, and use it to offer a uniquely integrated treatment of the links between economic growth, liberalized trade, and the environment. The results will surprise many. The authors set out the two leading theories linking...
Helps lab workers and medical technology students identify fungal pathogens under the microscope by their morphology and other features. Bandw illustrations and photomicrographs illustrate guides to interpretation of clinical specimens and identification of fungi in culture, with descriptions of filamentous bacteria, yeasts, thermally dimorphic fungi, and thermally monomorphic molds. A section on laboratory technique details lab procedures, staining methods, and media preparation. Includes an illustrated glossary. The latest edition adds new organisms, lab procedures, and staining methods. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
