The first part covers data input/output, calculation of commonly used indexes and plotting in R. The core of the book then focusses on the presentation and practical implementations of modelling techniques used for fingerprinting processes such as partial melting, fractional crystallization, binary mixing or AFC using major-, trace-element and radiogenic isotope data. The reader will be given a firm theoretical basis for forward/reverse modelling, followed by exercises dealing with typical problems likely to be encountered in real life, and their solutions using R. The concluding sections demonstrate, using practical examples, how a researcher can proceed in developing a realistic model simulating natural systems. The appendices outline the fundamentals of the R language and provide a quick introduction to the open-source R-package GCDkit for Interpretation of whole-rock geochemical data from igneous and metamorphic rocks.Springer Geochemistry,2366-6285GeochemistryComputer simulationEnvironmental geologyEnvironmental geologyR (Computer program language)Geochemistry.Computer simulation.Environmental geology.Environmental geology.R (Computer program language)550Janoušek Vojtěchauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut787297Moyen Jean-Françoisauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMartin Hervéauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autErban Vojtěchauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autFarrow Colinauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910254110403321Geochemical Modelling of Igneous Processes – Principles And Recipes in R Language2538868UNINA06043nam 22008055 450 991040969510332120240429225359.03-030-42476-610.1007/978-3-030-42476-3(CKB)4100000011231725(DE-He213)978-3-030-42476-3(MiAaPQ)EBC6192793(PPN)248397508(EXLCZ)99410000001123172520200508d2020 u| 0engurnn#008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierSustainable Food Drying Techniques in Developing Countries: Prospects and Challenges /by Mahadi Hasan Masud, Azharul Karim, Anan Ashrabi Ananno, Asif Ahmed1st ed. 2020.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2020.1 online resource (XX, 189 p. 108 illus., 107 illus. in color.)3-030-42475-8 Insights into Drying -- Energy Requirement in Drying -- Energy Scenario in Developing Countries -- Existing drying Technologies in Developing Countries -- Proposal of Sustainable drying techniques in Developing Countries -- Challenges in Drying Sector -- Conclusion.This book presents a comprehensive review of renewable energy-based sustainable drying techniques for developing countries. Aspiring towards a world with zero food waste, the book has provided discussion on sustainable drying techniques in terms of energy efficiency. The socio-economic condition of each developing country is unique; therefore, has specific technological requirements. As such, the book presents discussions on food waste scenario around the world, the socio-economic status of developing countries and their correlation with food. The book gives an overview of the quality aspects of drying, along with the required energy and time to retain these features. Additionally, a method of selecting drying techniques for developing countries, taking the cost and safety factor into consideration, has been discussed extensively Also, the renewable and non-renewable energy resources of low income, lower-middle income, middle income, and high-income developing countries have been analyzed and presented. The book also highlights the available drying techniques that are currently being practiced by the consumers and industries of developing countries. The book recommends ten sustainable drying technologies for the developing countries and describes their working principle. Discussion on potential challenges for sustainable drying technology adoption is also presented. The book presents up-to-date research on sustainable drying techniques and their impact on developing countries to reduce food waste. Food waste is not only a humanitarian concern but also a threat to environmental sustainability. Currently, one-third of all produced food is being wasted, when nearly 805 million people - including children remain undernourished on a daily basis. In an effort to solve this crisis, a number of food preservations techniques are being practiced in food supply chain. Drying is one such preservation technique that prevents microbial proliferation, slows enzymatic reaction and preserves the physio-chemical properties of food. Albeit, drying is an effective means of food preservation; it is also highly energy-intensive. Developing countries do not have sufficient energy and financial resources to adopt conventional (expensive and high energy) drying techniques. As such, this is the first reference work dedicated to discussing the prospects and challenges of sustainable (renewable energy based and inexpensive) drying techniques for developing countries in order to reduce food waste. Sustainable food drying techniques in developing countries: Prospects and Challenges is a singular work in the field of food preservation and affordable drying technology. .MicrobiologyFoodBiotechnologyEnergy policyEnergy policyThermodynamicsHeat engineeringHeatTransmissionMass transferFood Microbiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L23040Food Sciencehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C15001Energy Policy, Economics and Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/112000Engineering Thermodynamics, Heat and Mass Transferhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T14000Deshidratació d'alimentsthubEnginyeria sosteniblethubMicrobiologia dels alimentsthubLlibres electrònicsthubMicrobiology.FoodBiotechnology.Energy policy.Energy policy.Thermodynamics.Heat engineering.HeatTransmission.Mass transfer.Food Microbiology.Food Science.Energy Policy, Economics and Management.Engineering Thermodynamics, Heat and Mass Transfer.Deshidratació d'alimentsEnginyeria sostenibleMicrobiologia dels aliments641.44Hasan Masud Mahadiauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut769500Karim Azharulauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autAnanno Anan Ashrabiauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autAhmed Asifauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910409695103321Sustainable Food Drying Techniques in Developing Countries: Prospects and Challenges2509537UNINA
