For moni toring the analytical Performance, a qoality control exawhnation was also undertaken. The loss of iodine was greater when salt was stored in plastic bag than in glass bottle. The loss was greater in fortified salt stored at 37℃ and under 76% humidity than in that at 20 ~ 25℃ and under lower humidity. The retention of iodine varied with the kind of has and also was influenced by the water content of cooked food. In general, the retention of iodine during cooking varied considerably (from 36. 6% to 86. 1 % ). The iodine concentration in salts varied greater from 3.0 to 100.3 mg/kg in salt for markets, and from 0 to 90.0 mg/kg in salts for households. 48. 3 % of samples from markets were found to be in compliance with national standards (30 ~ 50 mg/kg), and 72.0% of samples from households were in compliance with national standartl (20 ~ 50 mg/kg). Analytical data collected from 8 of the cooperative laheratories foran analytical reference material showed a 95% codridence interval of the population mean for both precision and accuracy, falling within X± 2SD and passing quality control exdrination展开更多

The governing equation of the model contains not only the traditional convection and conduction terms, but also a heat dispersion term which has often been overlooked in many similar researches. The model is used to describe a series of aquifer thermal energy storage experiments conducted at the Shanghai experimental site, including single-well injection, double-well injection/production and multiple-well injection/prodution tests. The simulated temperatures agree very well with the field data (relative error: 2.8%-4.5%). A detailed description of the model is given, followed by a detailed comparison of simulated and measured temperature distributions.展开更多

The controlled chamber (4.5' × 4.5' × 4.5') with supplement of 1% L-ascorbic acid as antioxidant source was constructed using locally available materials. Fresh tomatoes were kept with wrapping by low density polyethylene under refrigerated and CA storage conditions. The maximum shelf-life of fresh tomato was 42 days under CA condition and followed by 35 days in refrigeration condition. Though initial cost of controlled atmosphere was high but it resulted in maximum shelf life of tomato. However, CA condition retained the physiological changes namely, color change, TSS, and weight loss of fresh tomatoes than that of stored in refrigerated condition. From nutritional point of view, it was concluded that developed CA plant could be used to extend the shelf-life of fresh tomatoes with minimum physico-chemical changes throughout the storage period.展开更多

Many geotechnical challenges remain during carbon dioxide storage field practices, among which effectively detecting CO2 from deep underground is one of engineering problems. This paper reviews monitoring techniques currently used during CO2 injection and storage. A method developed based on measuring seismic microtremors is of main interest. This method was first successfully used to characterize a site in this paper. To explore its feasibility in C02 storage monitoring, numerical simulations were conducted to investigate detectable changes in elastic wave signatures due to injection and geological storage of CO2. It is found that, although it is effective for shallow earth profile estimation, the surface wave velocity is not sensitive to the CO2 layer physical parameter variations,especially for a thin CO2 geological storage layer in a deep underground reservoir.展开更多
