In industrial production, thermal processing of honey at 50 degrees C commonly induces liquefaction, i.e. it reduces the crystal count and viscosity and delays any subsequent crystallization. Unfortunately, thermal treatment can generate toxic 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), thereby resulting in quality reduction. Considering this, the present work aims at evaluating the influence of (two) processing technologies as alternatives to thermal processing of honey, namely high hydrostatic pressure (HHP; P = 220-330 MPa, T = 50/60 degrees C, t = 23/106 min), and ultrasound processing (US; at 24 kHz). The quality parameters evaluated for honey included liquefaction time, HMF content, diastase number, colour and viscosity. The best process conditions for maximising liquefaction were found to be P = 220 MPa, T = 50 degrees C, t = 106 min for HHP, and a 7 mm probe with 0.5 cycles (batch) for US treatment. US treatment is recommended over thermal processing owing to the convenience, shorter processing times, and less quality loss. Likewise, HHP treatment was shorter and with lower HMF values than thermal processing. In conclusion, ultrasound and HHP are both potential alternatives to thermal processing for liquefaction of honey crystals.

Effect of ultrasound and high hydrostatic pressure (hhp) on liquefaction and quality parameters of selected honey varieties. Basmacı, İpek; Alpas, Hami; Department of Food Engineering (2010) Heat treatment (around 50°C) is a major step in honey filling and packaging that is applied before filtration to decrease viscosity, reduce the moisture level, to destroy yeasts, liquefy crystals and delay crystallization. As a result, formation of Hydroxy Methyl Furfural (HMF), decrease in enzymatic activity, color deterioration, decrease in viscosity and many other structural changes are observed. HMF is produced as a result of Maillard reaction and/or hexose dehydration -which is undesirable-, practicall...
Comparative study of high pressure and atmospheric acid leaching for the extraction of nickel and cobalt from refractory nickel laterite ores Korkmaz, Kıvanç; Topkaya, Yavuz Ali; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2014) In this MSc thesis, the refractory minerals that may be present in limonitic nickel laterite ores will be tried to be leached under the optimum conditions of high pressure and atmospheric acid leaching. The results of the different methods of leaching to be obtained will be compared in terms of the Ni and Co extractions.
Effect of precipitation temperature and organic additives on size and morphology of ZnO nanoparticles Yildirim, Ozlem Altintas; Durucan, Caner (2012-06-01) Low temperature (25 degrees C-80 degrees C) synthesis of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles (<20 nm) at short synthesis periods (similar to 30 min) was achieved by precipitation. The precipitation system was formed using zinc acetate dihydrate as zinc source, ethylene glycol (EG) as solvent and polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) as chelating agent. The size of spherical ZnO nanoparticles was manipulated by the choice of precipitation temperature (13.0 +/- 1.9 nm at 25 degrees C and 9.0 +/- 1.3 nm at 80 degrees C), whi...
Influence of fly ash composition on non-gray particle radiation in combusting systems Ates, CİHAN; Selçuk, Nevin; Külah, Görkem (2018-08-01) In this study, chemical composition dependency of both radiative properties of ash particles and radiative heat exchange are investigated for conditions typically encountered in industrial coal-fired furnaces. For that purpose, chemical composition dependent / independent complex index of refraction models are utilized to evaluate (i) spectral particle absorption efficiencies, scattering efficiencies and asymmetry factors, (ii) particle cloud properties representing pulverized coal fired furnaces (PC-Fired)...
Effects of high hydrostatic pressure on microflora and some quality attributes of grape juice MERT, Mecnun; BUZRUL, Sencer; Alpas, Hami (2013-03-01) Red and white grape juices were treated with high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) at three different pressures, temperature and time values to investigate the effects of HHP on natural microflora and some quality attributes of the juices. Increased pressure, temperature and time showed significant effect on the microbial reduction and no microbial growth were observed in HHP-treated grape juices up to 90 days. HHP had little or no effect on pH and color of the juices. Although 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) forma...
