Abstract Changing consumers’ taste for chemical and thermally processed food preference perceived healthier minimally alternatives is a challenge to industry. At present, several technologies have found usefulness as choice methods ensuring that remains unaltered while guaranteeing maximum safety protection of consumers. However, the effectiveness most green technology limited due formation resistant spores by certain foodborne microorganisms production toxins. Cold plasma, recent technology, has shown commendable superiority at both spore inactivation enzymes toxin deactivation. exact mechanism behind efficiency cold plasma remained unclear. In order further optimize apply treatment in processing, it crucial understand these mechanisms possible factors might limit or enhance their outcomes. As novel non-thermal emerged means ensure microbiological food. Furthermore, this review presents different design configurations applications, analysis microbial biofilm inactivation, examines impact on compositional, organoleptic, nutritional quality.

Urbanization, industrialization and other human-related activities discharge various inorganic organic toxic compounds into the environment. Many physical, chemical biological methods have been practiced, to treat contaminated wastewater: among these, method of wastewater treatment by utilizing algae has reviewed widely. However, removal efficacy monoculture is low, as compared consortium systems. The presence microorganisms such fungi or bacteria in can establish relationships, mutualism symbiosis with algae, which help from wastewater, thus acting a system. Heterotrophic segregate natural matter, released form dissolved carbon, releases carbon dioxide, utilized for photosynthesis. In accordance existing studies, microalgal consortiums occurring naturally crafted artificially be treatment; therefore, present review provides an outline symbiotic relationships between microorganisms, their applications treatment. Various mechanisms—such mutualism, commensalism parasitism—for different pollutants systems elucidated this review; moreover, addresses challenges that are restricting large-scale implementation these consortiums, demanding more research enable enhanced commercialization.

Abstract It has been the heartbeat of researchers and food engineers to discover appropriate effective technology for microbial control ensure safety food. This is because microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, protozoa can cause contamination in products. Many studies have published reviews on use single novel radio frequency (RF), pulsed light (PL), cold plasma (CP) process safety. However, no review provided a comprehensive, detailed overview RF, PL, CP treatments pasteurizing products one publication. study aims present future directions applications various aspects these technologies. The concluded that although technique (thermal or nonthermal) could adequately meet all requirements safety, traditional thermal processes be extremely useful reducing eliminating microbe contamination. they cannot applied temperature‐sensitive foods. Besides inactivating spores, denature proteins well organoleptic properties, taste, nutritional value, sensory characteristics, illustrating importance technologies an alternative heat‐based techniques. As result this study, hurdle recommended since it additive effect achieves better germicidal results.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are persistent organic chemicals found in numerous industrial applications everyday products. The excessive amounts of PFASs water soil, together with their link to severe health issues, have prompted substantial public concerns, making removal from the environment a necessity. Existing degradation techniques frequently lacking due low efficiency, cost-effectiveness, potential for secondary contamination. Cold Atmospheric Plasma (CAP) technology has emerged as promising alternative, utilizing energized reactive species break down under ambient conditions. Therefore, this review examines efficacy effectiveness CAP degrading by reviewing various setups examining key factors involved. This also aims further development viable solution PFAS addressing outstanding challenges future directions soil treatment.
