DETERMINATION OF THE AVAILABLE AVERAGE DAILYSOLAR POWER IN IASI AND PATRA

CARP IULIA

The purpose of this study is to make a comparison between the solar powers thatwe can subtract using solar panels in two different locations: Iasi, Romania and Patras,Greece. The considerations in this project were based on the values obtained using acomputer program called Meteonorm witch was designed to provide useful weatherforecasts for different months, days or hours. As most of the people would also assume, Ithought in the beginning that the two values would be totally different and that the solarpower witch can be used in Greece has much bigger values than the one in Romania. Well,as it seems, my assumptions were incorrect and hopefully the values obtained from thisresearch project will bring some benefits to the Romanian people regarding the matter ofusing the solar power, a free source of power, which does not pollute and which is usedworldwide with great success and multiple future economical advantages.

Transesterification of soybean oil in supercritical methanol has been carried outin the absence of catalyst. A co-solvent was added to the reaction mixture in order todecrease the operating temperature, pressure and molar ratio of alcohol to vegetable oil.With CO2 as co-solvent in the reaction system, there was a significant decrease in theseverity of the conditions required for supercritical reaction.

GLOBALIZATION

MĂCĂRESCU ANCA

Globalization is, by all means, one of the most used words nowadays. One canfind it in any person’s vocabulary, it turns up in any debate. It exceeded long ago its initialmeaning: the integration of the economic systems, promoted by the technological progressand by the multiplication of the commercial relations. It even came to ideological conflicts.But there are other more serious reasons: economy, the social life, culture, art, the religiouslife and the spirituality, the communication, the services – everything is continuouslyboiling. All the scaffolding on which the entire world order – still present – is based on tendsto be blown up and replaced. How far can it go without dropping the situation out of hand?Is it a natural stage in the world’s evolution scale? Is it a sign of progress or is it the lastphase of the society before its collapse? Is it an inevitable phenomenon or a provoked andup kept one? Finally, all this waste of tumult can lead to some result?

SENSORY CHARACTERISTICS AND THE VARIATION OF A FEWPHYSICAL-CHEMICAL PARAMETERS OF CHORIZO SAUSAGESPREPARED WITH Staphylococcus carnosus AND Lactobacillusplantarum

ROMAN MONICA

The main concern of food industry specialists nowadays is to guarantee publichealth by securing the consumption of salubrious food products with a high degree ofinnocuousness and a high nutritional value. The informed consumers prefer fresh meatproducts. Raw-dry sausages and salami fall into this category because they are wellpreserved for longer periods of time and for their specific flavour. The present study’s aimwas to determine the nitrite’s content variation- nitrite is imperative for the reddish colourin meat and also for anti-microbial protection by using starter cultures of selectedmicroorganisms, which, together with other components such as humidity, pH value andhydrolysed nitrogen secure the product’s preservation stability – as well as to analyse thefinite product’s sensory characteristics.
