Kinetics of Moisture Loss and Oil Absorption of Pork Rinds during Deep-Fat, Microwave-Assisted and Vacuum Frying.

ABSTRACT: The fat content of fried pork rinds is high, and alternative frying helps reduce the oil content and maintain their texture and taste. Different frying methods such as microwave-assisted, traditional deep frying and vacuum frying on the breaking force, color, microstructure, water loss and oil absorption attributes of fried pork rinds were evaluated in this study. The fat content of microwave-assisted and vacuum-fried pork rinds was lower (24.2 g/100 g dry weight basis (db) and 17.1 g/100 g db, respectively) than that (35.6 g/100 g db) of traditional deep-fat frying. Non-uniform, holy and irregular surface microstructures were obtained by vacuum frying due to rapid mass transfer at low pressure. The first-order kinetic models of water loss and oil absorption of traditional and microwave-assisted frying of pork rinds were established. Microwave frying caused a faster moisture loss rate, shorter frying time and lower pork rind oil content, makes it an attractive substitute for traditional deep-fat frying.

Kinetics of Oil Absorption and Moisture Loss during Deep-Frying of Pork Skin with Different Thickness.

Project description:We have investigated different properties (thickness, moisture loss, oil uptake, breaking force, color, puffing ratio during 0.5-5 min frying, microstructure, and sensory evaluation) of raw pork skins with varying thickness (2, 3, and 4 mm) after drying, intended as deep-fried snacks. We have found that the oil content, breaking force, and puffing ratio of fried pork skin with different raw skin thickness have no significant difference under similar water content (1.68-1.98 g/100 g wet weight basis, wb) after 3-5 min of deep-frying at 180 °C. Additionally, sensory score results have shown that fried pork skins with 4 mm raw skin thickness had lower flavor, texture, and overall acceptability than those with 2 mm and 3 mm raw skin thickness. Scanning electron micrographs (SEM) have revealed less holes and irregular and crack microstructure in fried pork skins with 4 mm raw skin thickness than in other groups. Different thickness of raw pork skins resulted in different effects in microstructure and influenced water evaporation and oil uptake of fried pork skin. Finally, we have proposed the kinetic equations of water loss and oil uptake of fried pork skins. Fried pork skin from raw skin thicker than 4 mm need frying at temperature higher than 180 °C to improve their puffing ratio and sensory acceptability.

Hygroscopic holey graphene aerogel fibers enable highly efficient moisture capture, heat allocation and microwave absorption.

Project description:Aerogel fibers have been recognized as the rising star in the fields of thermal insulation and wearable textiles. Yet, the lack of functionalization in aerogel fibers limits their applications. Herein, we report hygroscopic holey graphene aerogel fibers (LiCl@HGAFs) with integrated functionalities of highly efficient moisture capture, heat allocation, and microwave absorption. LiCl@HGAFs realize the water sorption capacity over 4.15 g g-1, due to the high surface area and high water uptake kinetics. Moreover, the sorbent can be regenerated through both photo-thermal and electro-thermal approaches. Along with the water sorption and desorption, LiCl@HGAFs experience an efficient heat transfer process, with a heat storage capacity of 6.93 kJ g-1. The coefficient of performance in the heating and cooling mode can reach 1.72 and 0.70, respectively. Notably, with the entrapped water, LiCl@HGAFs exhibit broad microwave absorption with a bandwidth of 9.69 GHz, good impedance matching, and a high attenuation constant of 585. In light of these findings, the multifunctional LiCl@HGAFs open an avenue for applications in water harvest, heat allocation, and microwave absorption. This strategy also suggests the possibility to functionalize aerogel fibers towards even broader applications.

Microfluidic Assessment of Frying Oil Degradation.

Project description:Monitoring the quality of frying oil is important for the health of consumers. This paper reports a microfluidic technique for rapidly quantifying the degradation of frying oil. The microfluidic device generates monodispersed water-in-oil droplets and exploits viscosity and interfacial tension changes of frying oil samples over their frying/degradation process. The measured parameters were correlated to the total polar material percentage that is widely used in the food industry. The results reveal that the steady-state length of droplets can be used for unambiguously assessing frying oil quality degradation.

Microwave-assisted synthesis of trimethylolpropane triester (bio-lubricant) from camelina oil.

Project description:Vegetable oils, whose hydrocarbon structure is very similar to that of petroleum products, are ideal renewable and sustainable alternatives to petroleum lubricants. Bio-lubricants are commonly synthesized by modifying the chemical structure of vegetable oils. In this study, microwave irradiation was applied to intensify the mass-transfer-limited transesterification reaction to produce trimethylolpropane triester (bio-lubricant) from camelina oil as a promising local energy crop. A rotatable RSM-BBD method was applied to find the optimal levels of experimental factors, namely reaction time (67.8 min), the catalyst concentration (1.4 wt%) and the molar ratio (3.5). In these optimal levels, the reaction yield of 94.3% was obtained with desirability of 0.975. The quadratic statistical model with a determination coefficient of 97.97%, a standard deviation of 0.91 and a variation coefficient of 1% was suggested as the most appropriate model by Design-Expert software. Finally, the physicochemical properties of the purified product were in accordance with the requirements of the ISO-VG22 base oil standard.

Optimization of vacuum frying condition for producing silver carp surimi chips.

Project description:In this study, we explored the feasibility of vacuum frying to produce crisp silver carp surimi chips. The influence of three process parameters (frying temperature, frying time, and slice thickness) on the quality parameters of vacuum-fried surimi chips (oil uptake, crispness, and optical properties) was investigated. The experimental results showed the optimal conditions were chosen as 2-mm surimi slice being vacuum-fried at 118°C for 2.5 min. Under these conditions, the oil content, breaking force, and color difference to commercial potato chips were 24.33%, 15.21 N, and 14.03, respectively. Additionally, we also measured the water loss during vacuum frying and the oil quality changes during storage of surimi chips. Results demonstrated the rapid loss of water content of surimi chips during vacuum frying and oil deterioration was kept at acceptable low level up to 100 days. Taken together, our study supported the applicability of vacuum frying technology to produce high-quality silver carp surimi chips.

Microwave-Assisted Catalytic Solvolysis of Lignin to Phenols: Kinetics and Product Characterization.

Project description:Lignin, a major component of lignocellulosic biomass, is a valuable source of phenolic and aromatic compounds. It is, therefore, vital to develop strategies to selectively deconstruct lignin to valuable chemicals. This study focuses on the kinetics of depolymerization of lignin and the production of phenols via a microwave-assisted catalytic process at mild conditions of 80 °C in dimethyl sulfoxide/water medium. Four different catalysts used in this study, viz., Fe2O3, LaFeO3, ZrO2, and zeolite-Y hydrogen (ZYH), were characterized for structure, specific surface area, and surface morphology. The molecular weight reduction of lignin and the evolution of phenolic monomers and oligomers were monitored using various techniques, and the rate constants of lignin degradation in the presence of different catalysts were determined using a continuous distribution kinetics model, assuming scission of the lignin macromolecule at any random position. The rate constants (min-1) followed the trend: ZYH (26 × 10-4) ≈ LaFeO3 (25 × 10-4) > ZrO2 (22 × 10-4) > Fe2O3 ≈ no catalyst (16 × 10-4). Vanillic acid (15 mg g-1) and methyl phenol (17 mg g-1) were the major phenolics obtained with LaFeO3, whereas coniferaldehyde (13 mg g-1) was the major phenolic compound with Fe2O3. Vanillin was produced at ca. 11 mg g-1 with both Fe2O3 and ZYH. LaFeO3 is shown to be a promising catalyst for both molecular weight reduction of lignin and the production of monomeric phenols, whereas the use of Fe2O3 results in the formation of only phenols, possibly via specific end-chain depolymerization. The selectivities of the monomeric phenols were higher with these two catalysts, whereas with ZYH and ZrO2, the selectivities of the oligomers were better. The reusability of the catalysts and the effect of catalyst loading on kinetics of lignin depolymerization were also evaluated.

Valorization of frying oil waste for biodetergent production using Serratia marcescens N2 and gamma irradiation assisted biorecovery.

Project description:BackgroundThe complexity, toxicity and abundance of frying oil waste (FOW) render it difficult to be degraded biologically. The aim of the present work was to valorize FOW and investigate the potential use of the produced biosurfactant by Serratia marcescens N2 (Whole Genome sequencing accession ID SPSG00000000) as a biodetergent.ResultsSerratia marcescens N2 demonstrated efficient valorization of FOW, using 1% peptone, 20% FOW and 8% inoculum size. Gene annotation showed the presence of serrawettin synthetase indicating that the produced biosurfactant was serrawettin. Zeta potential and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy indicate that the biosurfactant produced was a negatively charged lipopeptide. The biosurfactant reduced the surface tension of water from 72 to 25.7 mN/m; its emulsification index was 90%. The valorization started after 1 h of incubation and reached a maximum of 83.3%. Gamma radiation was used to increase the biosurfactant yield from 9.4 to 19.2 g/L for non-irradiated and 1000 Gy irradiated cultures, respectively. It was noted that the biorecovery took place immediately as opposed to overnight storage required in conventional biosurfactant recovery. Both chemical and functional characteristics of the radiation induced biosurfactant did not change at low doses. The produced biosurfactant was used to wash oil stain; the highest detergency reached was 87% at 60 °C under stirring conditions for 500 Gy gamma assisted biorecovery. Skin irritation tests performed on experimental mice showed no inflammation.ConclusionThis study was able to obtain a skin friendly effective biodetergent from low worth FOW using Serratia marcescens N2 with 83% efficient valorization using only peptone in the growth media unlike previous studies using complex media. Gamma radiation was for the first time experimented to assist biosurfactant recovery and doubling the yield without affecting the efficiency.

Microwave-Assisted Catalytic Synthesis of Bio-Based Copolymers from Waste Cooking Oil.

Project description:Solvent-free copolymerization of epoxides derived from fatty esters of waste cooking oil with phthalic anhydride using (salen)CrIIICl as catalyst and n-Bu₄NCl/DMAP (tetrabutylammonium chloride/4-(dimethylamino)pyridine) as co-catalysts was carried out for the first time under microwave irradiation, where reaction time was reduced from a number of hours to minutes. The polyesters were obtained with molecular weight (Mw = 3100-6750 g/mol) and dispersity values (D = 1.18-1.92) when (salen)CrIIICl/n-Bu₄NCl was used as catalysts. Moreover, in the case of DMAP as a co-catalyst, polyesters with improved molecular weight (Mw = 5500-6950 g/mol) and narrow dispersity values (D = 1.07-1.28) were obtained even at reduced concentrations of (salen)CrIIICl and DMAP. The obtained products were characterized and evaluated by attenuated total reflection-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H-NMR) spectroscopy, gel permeation chromatography (GPC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) Techniques.
