the political will to regulate better industries which must be in a position of reasonability when using technologies. In conclusion it can be stated that without the use of Nickel Catalysis the industrial viability of Hydrogenation would be under question. Without hydrogenation the food industry would not be able to expand in such a large commercial sense and provide the several conveniences it does to consumers.

Solid fat content of a fat and oil decides its applications and usages. The ratio of the solid phase to the liquid phase is main criteria when considering the functionality of the fat and oil in wheat dough. Empirical measure of SFC is Solid Fat Index (SFI) which is the ratio of solid fat to the total fat. SFI determines the functional performance and textural quality of fats and fat containing products (Lai and Lin, 2006). It impacts the spreadability of a fat. According to Richard (1968), creaming

Castor oil is one of the most versatile plant oils. The various grades of the oil and its derivatives are currently used in over a dozen diverse industries. In future, with the rising environmental concerns and the need for bio-based products to replace synthetic feedstocks, castor oil and castor oil oleochemicals have the potential to be used in many newer industries, Many derivatives and oleochemicals of castor oil require relatively simple methods for their production, while higher generation
Paracetamol – Synthesis and Uses Discovered in 1877 by Harmon Northrop Morse at the John Hopkins University, Paracetamol was one of several aniline deriviatives that was found to have analgesic and antipyretic properties (Brodie 23). It was first synthesized by the reduction of p-nitrophenol with tin in glacial acetic acid; however was not used classified as a medication until ten year later (Bertolini 264). Initially, phenacetin, a closely related compound that exhibited similar physiological

important to eliminate trans fats or trans fatty acids in American diets because of the major health risks that are connected to its consumption and for the long term health of the American people. In the 1890’s a French chemist developed the hydrogenation process, which is how trans fats are created. It wasn’t until 1902 that Wilhelm Normann turned liquid oil into trans fatty acids. He patented the process and trans fats became the first man-made product to join the food supply. During World War
Compare and contrast the physicochemical events in the production of butter and margarine INTRODUCTION Butter is one of the diary products, that is a energy-yielding food products which are produced from the milk of mammals such as sheep, goats, buffalos and yaks. Twenty litres of whole milk is required in the production of one kilogram of butter. It is produced from the cream of milk with a fat content of about 80%. Chemically butter consists of butterfat, milk proteins, water and vitamins A, D
Hydrogen Hydrogen is a tasteless, odorless, colorless gas. Hydrogen is found in group 1 and period 1 on the periodic table. Hydrogen is classified as a nonmetal on the periodic table. The symbol for hydrogen is represented by an H, its atomic number is 1, and its atomic weight is 1.0079. The hydrogen atom consists of one proton, which has a positive charge, and one electron, which has a negative charge. The term hydrogen comes from two Greek words meaning water-former. Henry Cavendish, an English
As of today, fast food has become an essential element in daily life and as something people depend on. Among the common excuse given as of why people consume fast food regularly is that it is convenient to get hold of fast food because fast food chains are just everywhere and also because their service is quick and efficient, especially for those who are always in a rush and do not want to have to wait hours for their meal like students. Another common reason why people go for fast food is because
COORDINATION COMPOUNDS: Coordination compounds are those which are electrically neutral and contain complex ions. Complex ions are those compounds in which central metal atom is bonded to ligand by coordinate covalent bond. The complex can be charged so coordination compound is balanced by counter ion. Coordinate covalent bond is the bond in which electron pair is donated by one bonded atom only. The atoms which donate and accept the pair of electron are called donor and acceptor respectively. Ligand
for dissolving substances such as in paints, paint thinners, inks, dyes, and in cosmetics such as nail polish. Toluene is useful as it dissolves iodine, sulfur, oils, fats, resins, and phosgene. Toluene is important for many industrial uses, the hydrogenation (addition of hydrogen) of toluene yields methyl cyclohexane which is a solvent for waxes, oils, fats, and rubbers. Trinitrotoluene (TNT) is a component of several explosives. Monochlorotoluene is a widely used solvent for synthetic resins and rubbers
Lipids Nutrients are the chemicals that humans need to live and grow. Humans obtain their nutrients from the food and water that they drink. They are used to build and repair tissues and regulate body processes and are converted to and used as energy. Lipids are a category of nutrients. Lipids consist of fats, oils, and waxes and are very important for are body’s health. Lipids are important for the human body because they are for storing energy, they’re good at storing energy because they can
Lignocellulose is a major component of plant biomass and is composed of lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose. Lignocellulosics represent the most abundant renewable and inexpensive source of energy, derived from agricultural residues, forest waste and municipal solid wastes (Sánchez, 2009). It has been estimated that the amount of energy from the sun, fixed as carbon in photosynthetic biomass is 10 times the world usage (Kumar et al., 2008a). Globally, 1.3 1010 metric tons of wood is produced by
HYDROGEN Hydrogen is a gaseous element, symbol H, usually classed in group 1 (or Ia) of the periodic table Hydrogen melts at –259.2° C (–434.56° F) and boils at –252.77° C (–422.986° F). Hydrogen was confused with other gases until the British chemist Henry Cavendish demonstrated in 1766 that it was evolved by the action of sulfuric acid on metals and also showed at a later date that it was an independent substance that combined with oxygen to form water. The British chemist Joseph Priestley named
The Formation of Lipids This assignment is primarily about lipids, triglyceride, unsaturated and saturated fats I will be stating the formation of lipids and what they are made of. Lipids are a group of substances which include fats and oils, steroids which include cholesterol and some of the sex hormones, and various other substances such as the waxes which cover insect bodies and plant leaves. Lipids are a mixed group of hydrophobic compounds composed of the elements carbon, hydrogen
products. Pure virgin coconut oil is a unique superfood because even if it contains more than 90% saturated fat, which some might consider unhealthy, these naturally occurring saturated fats are not artificially manipulated in a process called hydrogenation. This process, which manipulates seed and vegetable oils by adding hydrogen atoms, produces a thick, rancid substance that transforms it into trans-fats and does nothing good for health. Also, unlike animal fats, coconut oil does not contain cholesterol
