Overall color parameter as a parameter determining the level of oxidation of olive oil
PublicationEdible fats are an important part of a human daily diet. They have a significant effect on the proper functioning of the human body. During frying, the oil is chemically modified and the fats consumed should have the highest oxidation stability. The subject of the study were samples of olive oil bought at local markets in Gdansk. Samples were heated at 20 °C, 60 °C, 100 °C, 140 °C and 180 °C. The aim of the study was to determine...

Methane emissions from mangrove soils in hydrologically disturbed and reference mangrove tidal creeks in southwest Florida
PublicationStudies have suggested that some mangrove soils might contribute to wetland methane (CH4) production and emissions, especially when the mangroves are disturbed. CH4 emissions were measured seasonally from nine locations on two mangrove creeks on Naples Bay in southwest Florida, USA. One of the tidal creeks has been impacted in the past few decades with alteration of upstream watersheds and freshwater inflows; the other creek was...

Power balance in hydraulic satellite motors supplied with oil and HFA-E emulsion
PublicationMineral oil and HFA-E emulsion are liquids which differ in viscosity, density and lubricant properties. Therefore, supplying hydraulic satellite motors with these liquids, differences between quantity of hydraulic, volumetric and mechanical losses are observed. These losses influence efficiency of conversion of hydraulic energy into mechanical energy and thereby power balance of motors.
