water consumption within the “nuts” category was actually higher than some of the other protein sources. However, when considering peanuts individually,Mekonnen and Hoekstra (2010b)showed that they have a lower blue water footprint when compared to almonds, walnuts, and pistachios (seeTable 13.3...
A slice of fresh watermelon tastes great, but you can do more with it. Top a salad with cubed melon and crumbled feta cheese. Make a watermelon pizza by topping wedges with yogurt, mint, slivered almonds, and berries. And save the seeds! Tossed with olive oil and sea salt, they can...
“Demand for water is projected to grow by more than 40% by 2050. By 2025, an estimated 1.8 billion people will live in countries or regions in which water is scarce, and two-thirds of the world’s population could be living in conditions in which the supply of clean water does not m...
Time 0 corresponds to the time after come-up-time (the time needed to raise the temperature to reach a target level). Uninoculated controls were analyzed for background microflora and aw at three sampling times throughout each experiment. Salmonella were recovered on non-selective and selective ...
摘要:New wastewater treatment processes resulting in considerably reduced sludge production and more effective treatment are needed. This is due to the more stringent legislations controlling discharges of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) and existing problems such as high sludge production. In this st...
nitrate and H2O2and a low pH is needed to achieve a similar cell number reduction than PAW76. However, in many cases, there is an additional enhanced antimicrobial effect from plasma water that cannot simply be explained by the presence of the identified metastable. The effect of active species...
“It’s a vivid picture of what subsidence can do,” said Christopher White, manager of the district that serves 1,900 farmers, who grow tomatoes, cotton, fruit, almonds and other crops in three counties. Long-term subsidence has already destroyed thousands of public and private groundwater ...
going viral. With no leafy greens to be seen, it’s a great recipe for when you want something a little more comforting but still healthy. The delicata and dumpling squash rest on a bed of rice and are topped with almonds, feta, and plenty of herbs to satisfy every single taste bud....
These are well beyond the time needed to kill bacteria and viruses. These contact times have been extended from the usual recommendations in cold water to account for the extended inactivation time required in very cold water and for the uncertainty of residual concentration. Halogen toxicity ...
This process invited the audience to consider Buckminster Fuller’s “energy slaves,” that army of invisible human labor equivalents in the form of fossil-fuel-driven pumps that typically deliver the water needed to grow a pound of almonds within seconds. Once the installation wrapped up, we ...
