Today, waste plastics represent a promising source both for energy production and chemicals. One way to use their potential is pyrolysis under well-defined conditions. This work presents a suitable method for treat-ment of waste polyethylene terephthalate (PET) using low-temperature pyrolysis realized by heating rates of 5 °C.min-1 (slow pyrolysis) or 25 °C.min-1 (fast pyrolysis) up to final temperature of 400 °C. Under these con-ditions, the valuable products were formed, namely solid fuel with HHV 31-33 MJ.kg-1 and liquid mixture containing mainly ethylene glycol and aldehydes. While slow pyrolysis provides mainly solid fuel, ethylene glycol and aldehydes, main products of fast pyrolysis are solid fuel and paraldehyde.

1. An investigation has been made of the factors which cause sodium loss from ammocoetes when they are immersed in de-ionized water at 1° and 10° C. 2. Sodium influx ceases when animals are first immersed in de-ionized water, but can recommence when the animal loses sufficient sodium to the environment. The concentration of sodium required for influx to take place decreases with succeeding periods of immersion in de-ionized water at 10° C. and reaches minimum equilibrium concentrations as low as 0.005 mM-Na/l. 3. Low temperature inhibits sodium influx and thus promotes net loss of sodium to de-ionized water. 4. Low temperature also decreases the initial loss of sodium to de-ionized water and probably lowers the permeability of the external surfaces of the animal to ions. This effect is small compared with the inhibition of ion uptake so that the combined result is to increase the net loss of sodium from the animal. 5. Since animals lose calcium to de-ionized water and show a decreased rate of sodium loss when calcium salts are added, it is believed that the high rates of sodium loss in de-ionized water are attributable to the effect of calcium on permeability. 6. Lack of calcium may also explain why animals which have been depleted of sodium by low-temperature treatment take up sodium much faster at higher temperatures from dilute Ringer solutions than from pure sodium chloride solutions. 7. When animals lose ions to de-ionized water at low temperature, sodium and chloride are lost from the extracellular space, whilst the muscle cells lose potassium. These ions are recovered into the extracellular space when animals are allowed to take up ions at 10° C. from diluted Ringer solution later.

The study was aimed at developing a technology for preparing various semi-finished products from pork meat using low-temperature processing "Su-Vid". The main physicochemical indicators, functional-technological and structural-mechanical characteristics of semi-finished products, the chemical composition of semi-finished products and finished products were identified and determined experimentally, and organoleptic analysis was carried out. The data indicate that the use of low-temperature processing significantly affects the characteristics of manufactured products, which improves its performance. In particular, pork semi-finished products prepared at low temperatures are characterized by the yield: steak – 93.9%, ribs – 92.6%, in comparison with the control regime, 7.5 and 6.2% higher. The complex of data obtained showed that the samples of semi-finished pork, according to the experimental regimes of heat treatment, in terms of safety, fully meet the requirements of TR TS 034/2013. Analysis of semi-finished pork products showed that products prepared using the Su-Vid technology had high organoleptic characteristics, taste and sensory characteristics. During the storage of semi-finished products, minor changes in proteins and fats, as well as organoleptic, sanitary and microbiological characteristics, took place. As a result, a bone steak was developed in the Caucasian marinade and pork ribs in the Monte Ritz marinade made using the Su-Vid technology. The results allow us to judge that this technology is quite promising and has a positive effect on the characteristics of manufactured products. The widespread introduction of this technology in the meat industry will allow the development of semi-finished products and products of high quality, nutritional and biological value compared to products manufactured by traditional methods, as well as reduce production costs.

The study was conducted to know blood glucose and triiodothyronine levels of broiler starter due to heat stress and different initial-time feeding. The material used in this study was 64 male DOC broilers of Lohmann strain with the average initial weight of 47.98 ± 2.24 g. The experiment was designed based on randomized block design with a 2x2 factorial and four replications. The treatment combinations as follow: S1W1 = low temperature, feeding 12 hours post-hatching; S1W2 = low temperature, feeding 24 hours post-hatching; S2W1 = high temperature, feeding 12 hours post-hatching; S2W2 = high temperature, feeding 24 hours post-hatching. The Data were Analyzed by using ANOVA. If there was a significant effect (P <0.05) or very significant effect (P <0.01) in Followed by Duncan's test. The result Showed that heat stress treatment significantly affected (P <0.05) to the triiodothyronine level, while initial feeding treatment had no significant effect. Also, blood glucose levels had no significant effect due to the treatments. It concluded that heat stress negatively affected by the blood glucose and triiodothyronine levels of broiler starter. The initial-time feeding has no effect on the blood glucose and triiodothyronine levels. Interactions between treatment and different temperature-time initial feeding have no effect. Nevertheless, the low temperature treatment and initial feeding of 12 hours post-hatching shows the best results with blood glucose 246.25 ± 9.91 mg / dl and triiodothyronine of 2.05 ± 0.14 ng / ml.
