Food vacuum cooling equipment is majorly used to cool down cooked food or food products rapidly, using a vacuum-based process. It cools food by circulating cold air around the food. The vacuum cooling system works by decreasing the atmospheric pressure around the food, which leads to evaporation of moisture inside the food, leading to quick reduction of temperature. This technique is majorly used to cool high-moisture food, like baked items. It is also used to extend the shelf life of the food product while preserving the quality of the product. Food vacuum cooling equipment is majorly used to cool down mushrooms, leafy greens, lettuce and more such products. It is also used to cool down baked goods such as cookies, pastries, bread and more, while maintaining its freshness. It can also be used to cool down cooked meat, while ensuring food safety. The next step toward food safety and shelf-life extension Expansion of cold chain in emerging sectors and adoption of digital and agri-tech s...

Ultra-high performance concrete is a new class of concrete that is mostly used in commercial construction due to its exceptional strength and durability. Its minimum specified compressive strength is 150 MPa, which makes it more durable than conventional concrete (CC) and high-performance concrete (HPC). This cement-based composite material has exceptional resistance to chemical and environmental degradation. Key technologies driving UHPC industry expansion   Technological advancements in the formulation of concrete and its manufacturing techniques foster the adoption of UHPC. This concrete has been able to achieve such low porosity, superior ductility, and self-consolidating behavior due to nanotechnology-enhanced admixtures and advanced fiber reinforcement.  Robotic fabrication systems and 3D printing technologies have begun to make their way into UHPC manufacturing, enabling greater precision, reduced labor costs, and higher scalability. In addition, intelligent curing syst...

Industrial noise control is used to reduce sound produced in the industrial sector. This is applied in construction sites, manufacturing facilities, factories and other sectors that produce high levels of noise. This increased level of noise produced in different industries can create challenges for the health of the workers, apart from raising concerns in communication and compliance. The noise in the industrial sector often comes from welding, drilling, grinding, and other mechanical operations. Different equipment used in industries, such as turbines, pumps, compressors, and others are also the major source of noise in the sector. The intensity of this noise is measured in decibels and has a regulatory limit for different industries. If this limit is crossed, it can lead to serious health concerns, increase in levels of stress, reduction of concentration, and may lead to temporary or permanent hearing loss.   The main aim of industrial noise control is to improve the working ...
