transesterification (Hafman‚ 2003). The catalyst used to hydrolysis the triglyceride‚ and alcohols combine with the fatty acid to produce biodiesel (Gorham‚ 2006). After a complete reaction‚ the glycerol and ester form two liquid layers and catalyst is removed for reuse. (Vegetable oil) + (Alcohol) → (Glycerol) +(Methyl Ester)On the other hand‚ diesel is made from the petroleum which takes millions of years to form under the earth. Thus‚ it is a kind of nonrenewable energy source. Same as diesel fuels

utritionaP2- Describe the characteristics of nutrients and the benefits to the body. In this assignment I will be describing the characteristics of nutrients and the benefits to the body. Firstly‚ in order to obtain good health we need to consume a daily balanced diet. To do this‚ we must consume the daily amount of food requirements. In a balanced diet‚ there are seven essential components. These are: * Carbohydrates * Protein * Lipids * Vitamins * Minerals * Fibre

1. Introduction Lonicerae Japonicae Flos (LJF)‚ an important traditional Chinese medicine herb‚ has been widely used for centuries in many prescriptions to treat acute fever‚ headache‚ respiratory infection‚ and epidemic disease via its anti-inflammatory (Cheng et al.‚ 2014)‚ antibacterial (Shan et al.‚ 2007)‚ and antioxidative activities (Fang et al.‚ 2015). Many studies shown that LJF also offers anti-diabetic (Zhou et al.‚ 2016)‚ and immunomodulatory properties (Kao et al.‚ 2015). Chlorogenic

nutrients which are required to maintain and regulate other systems in the body. Enzymes secreted within the digestive system have a role of breaking down food from proteins into amino acids‚ starch into glucose and fats into a mixture of fatty acids and glycerol. The main function of the respiratory system is to inhale oxygen and exhale the waste product carbon dioxide. Oxygen is breathed through the mouth and nostrils into the lungs. The gas then diffuses through the alveolar walls and into red blood cells

ABSTRACT This study was conducted to determine the possibility of using yellow bell seeds crude extract as fuel.Mature yellow bell seeds were collected‚ cleaned‚ and ground using mortar and pestle. Water was added before the juice was extracted. To remove excess water‚ the juice extracted from the seeds was boiled and was allowed to cool. Testing on the use of the crude extract for lighting purposes then followed. Results show that it is possible to use the crude extract as substitute for kerosene

Chapter 1 Introduction Background of the Study Starch is a linear polymer (polysaccaride) made up of repeating glucose groups linked by glucosidic linkages in the 1-4 carbon positions. The length of the starch chains will vary with plant source but in general the average length is between 500 and 2 000 glucose units. There are two major molecules in starch - amylose and amylopectin. The alpha linkage of amylose starch allows it to be flexible and digestible. Starch-based biodegradable plastics

Topic 8a – Carbonyl compounds Revision Notes 1. Introduction • Aldehydes and ketones are carbonyl compounds • They contain the carbonyl group C=O • The functional group in aldehydes is –CHO on the end of a chain e.g. ethanal CH3CHO • The functional group in ketones is C=O not at the end of a chain e.g. propanone CH3COCH3 2. AS Recap • Primary alcohols are oxidised by acidified potassium dichromate. An aldehyde is produced first and this can be further oxidised

The Great Barrier Reef‚ located off the coast of Queensland‚ Australia‚ is the “world’s largest coral reef ecosystem”‚ according to the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority (GBRMPA). It is home to about 2‚900 individual coral reefs‚ but unfortunately‚ as of 1990 and continuing until today‚ this number is rapidly declining. This active downturn is primarily due to the catastrophic coral bleaching event being held in their ecosystem. Coral reefs have an optimal water temperature of (20-27 celsius)
