Technical News Frozen vegetables more nutritious than fresh? According to a study conducted by the Institute of Food Research (UK) on behalf of frozen food giant Birds Eye, frozen vegetables can be more nutritious than supposedly fresh supermarket produce. Fresh vegetables can lose up to 45% of important nutrients by the time they reach the dinner table. 80% of shoppers believe the fresh vegetables sold in supermarkets are less than 4 days old. In fact, they can be up to 9 days old when they arrive at the supermarket, and remain on the shelf for a further 4 days. Including the time these vegetables are stored at home before being eaten, these "fresh" items can be over 16 days old. The study found that green beans can lose on average 45% of nutrients over a time interval of 11-15 days from field to plate, broccoli and cauliflower 25% (6-16 days), garden peas 15% (8-10 days), and carrots 10% (9-10 days). By contrast, produce frozen close to the point of harvest maintains a higher level of many vitamins and nutrients. The key nutrients the vegetables contain are vitamin C and glucosinates, which are said to block the development of cancer. Source: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/hea...fresh.html#ixzz0jfx2gsWy

Briefs: LCCP The Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Technology Institute (ARTI) has opened bidding for a new research project to establish a standardized methodology to calculate the Life Cycle Climate Performance (LCCP) for stationary heating, ventilation, air-conditioning and refrigerating equipment. LCCP is a concept that identifies all global warming impacts due to the use of a product throughout its lifetime, including both the direct effect of refrigerants and blowing agent emissions from the product and the indirect effect of CO2 emissions related to the energy consumption of the product. The results will provide a basis for engineers and policy makers to make decisions on alternative competing technologies. Source: http://www.ahrinet.org/ARI/util/showdoc.aspx?doc=1747

Cryogenic applications : India India is developing semi-cryogenic propulsion technology using kerosene as a propellant to enhance its capability to launch satellites in the 6-tonne class. The technology utilizes liquid oxygen and aviation-grade kerosene instead of liquid hydrogen for cryogenic propulsion. The new technology will bring down costs compared with cryogenic technology. Semi-cryogenic propulsion will enable India's GSLV rockets to launch 6-tonne satellites, instead of the currently launched 2.2-tonne models.
