Kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus L.) seed is rich in protein, fat, fiber, and other essential nutrients. Kenaf seed comprises of high protein (22–31%) and oil (22–25%) contents which suggested its high potential food application. This chapter discusses the potential and early development of kenaf-based plant-milk and tofu. The step-by-step processes involved in preparation of kenaf-based milk and kenaf-based tofu at laboratory-scale are illustrated. Soaking conditions (temperature and time) of kenaf seed as pretreatment in preparation of kenaf seed milk were highlighted. Hydration of kenaf seed were found to be faster at elevated temperature, however higher soaking temperature and prolonged soaking time causes some losses of protein (%) and solid content (%) which are unfavorable for production of highly nutritious plant-based milk. Furthermore, in preparation of kenaf-based tofu, soaking temperature of seed also affected the properties of the tofu. As the soaking temperature was increased from 25–65°C, the yield, hardness, and chewiness of kenaf tofu decreased. It was recommended that soaking of kenaf seed at 25°C and the use of aluminum potassium salt at 1.00 g% as coagulant produces kenaf-based tofu with optimum quality.

Canarium odontophyllum miq. also known as dabai is known as Sarawak indigenous fruit and utilised for dabai peanut spread formulation. Dabai is physically hard in texture and consumed by soaking under heat treatment. Therefore, dabai optimum soaking condition is determined followed by the development of dabai peanut spread. The determination of soaking condition requires: soaking time (2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12) mins and soaking temperature (50°C, 60°C, 70°C and 80°C) as independent variables, and (water absorption, crude protein content, crude fat content, moisture content, ash content and colour) as dependent variables. 50°C for 4 minutes is the optimum dabai soaking condition, and it is being utilised for dabai peanut spread formulation. There were six different formulations with different ratios of soaked dabai and roasted peanut, and further underwent proximate analyses and sensory evaluation test. The combination of a low amount of soaked dabai (40 g) with a high amount of roasted peanut (160 g) has produced a high amount of crude protein (10.65%) and crude fat (35.95%) and was found significantly (p<0.05) acceptable by the panellists. The information obtained provides a better understanding of dabai as a potential food product ingredient.

The response surface methodology was used to optimize the hydrothermal processing conditions based on the rice quality parameters of the Rong Youhua Zhan rice variety (Indica). The effect of soaking temperature (29.77, 40, 55, 70, and 80.23°C), soaking time (67.55, 90, 120, 150, and 170.45 min), and steaming time (1.59, 5, 10, 15, and 18.41 min), each tested at five levels, on percentage of head rice yield (HRY), hardness, cooking time, lightness, and color were determined, with R2 values of 0.96, 0.94, 0.90, 0.88, and 0.94, respectively. HRY, hardness, cooking time, and color increased with process severity while lightness decreased, although HRY decreased after reaching a maximum. The predicted optimum soaking temperature, soaking time, and steaming time were 69.88°C, 150 min, and 6.73 min, respectively, and the predicted HRY, hardness, cooking time, lightness, and color under these conditions were 73.43%, 29.95 N, 32.14 min, 83.03 min, and 12.24 min, respectively, with a composite desirability of 0.9658. The parboiling industry could use the findings of the current study to obtain the desired quality of parboiled rice. This manuscript will be helpful for researchers working on commercializing parboiled rice processes in China as well as in other countries.

Slumping molds or sagging molds are utilized for shaping glassware containers and many kinds of slumped glass products from glass plates. In Thailand, a large number of slumped glass factories use such molds in their production because slumping process is easy and cheap; however, the major cost of this process is slumping molds. They are imported from other countries and are expensive. In this research, slumping molds are created from local raw materials using the basic method to reduce the cost of the production. One of proper materials for making slumping mold is refractory mortar which can be easily formed into various shapes and sizes. Consequently, it is interesting to prepare slumping molds from refractory mortar. In this study, the effect of different sources of alumina (calcined alumina and aluminum sludge) and soaking time on the properties of the refractory mortar were investigated. Dolomite clay, milled sand and white portland cement were mixed with sources of alumina in distilled water to form pastes. Super plasticizer was added to the pastes to adjust flow ability. Plastic containers were used as molds for specimen forming. Specimens were cured at room temperature for 24 hours and dried in air for 24 hours. After that specimens were dried in an oven at 110 °C for 24 hours and then fired at 1100 °C. The result showed that the suitable condition for making slumping mold is to use calcined alumina as a source of alumina with soaking temperature of 1100 °C for 4 hours. The physical properties, chemical properties and thermal properties were discussed.

Two hundred and forty (240), unsexed day old Arbor Acre broiler chicks were used to evaluate the effects of replacing whole kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus L.) seed meal (WKSM) with full fat soybean meal (FFSM) in the diets on the performance and carcass characteristics of broiler chicken in a 2 x 4 factorial arrangement, consisting two processing methods (raw kenaf seed meal RKM and roasted kenaf seed meal HKM) and 4 inclusion levels (0%, 10%, 20% and 30%). Both RKM and HKM were analysed for anti-nutritive factors, data were collected on performance, carcass characteristics and cost benefit. The results of anti-nutritive factors (ANF) in RKM and HKM revealed that HKM had lower values of 0.045%, 0.029mg/g and 0.013mg/g for tannin, oxalate and phytic acid respectively when compared to 0.078%,0.124mg/g and 0.026mg/g obtained for RKM (P<0.05). The performance of broiler chicken showed that birds on 10% RKM with an average weight gain and FCR of (2640.00g and 2.48) competed favourably with the control (2554.67g and 2.45). The results of carcass characteristics showed that birds on 10% and 20% inclusion levels had significantly (P<0.05) higher values of 64.25% and 65.58% for dressed weight respectively. In terms of weight gain and FCR, birds fed RKM performed better than birds fed roasted kenaf meal HKM. About 5% feed cost savings was made when WKSM was included in the diets of broilers. It was concluded that RKM and RKM can replace FFSB in broiler diets up to 10% without any detrimental effect on performance and carcass quality.

The glass system of SiO2-Al2O3-MgO-MgF2-SrCO3-CaCO3-CaF2-P2O5 was used to prepare machinable glass-ceramics for restorative dental applications. The aim of this study was to apply various heat treatments to produce mica-based glass-ceramics. Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA) was used to determine the optimal heat treatment conditions for nucleation and growth of the crystalline phases in the quenched glass. It was found that the optimum nucleation temperatures for the first and the second crystallization temperatures (Tp1 and Tp2) were 642°C and 635°C, respectively, and the optimum nucleation times were between 2 and 4 hours. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) showed the phases developed were anorthite, calcium-mica, fluorapatite, strontium apatite, forsterite, fluorite and stishovite phases. The microstructures of glass-ceramics were observed by Scanning electron microscope (SEM), found to exhibit plate-like mica crystals with high interlocking and randomly oriented with a higher soaking temperature and prolongation of the soaking time for crystallization.
