packaging materials.
Food Packaging is one of the most important processes in food industry which helps in maintaining the quality of food products during storage, transportation and distribution. It is primarily done in order to protect the food products from external influences like biological, chemical or mechanical damage; to contain the food, preserve it in its state as packed by preventing quality deterioration, and to attract consumers and provide product and nutritional information. For years, ancient people consumed fresh food which they could gather from their natural surroundings without storing the food. As the nomadic culture evolved, the need for containers to store food has also emerged. It took over 300 years for food packaging to finally evolve into the current form. There are many packaging materials used ever since. Each type of packaging material has a different role to play in packaging. Also packaging material like biodegradable packaging or edible packaging may ensure the world’s need for environment friendly and natural foods which is a major global concern now-a-day. The food packaging industry has revolutionized to a great extent in the recent years with advancement of novel food packaging technologies, such as active packaging, aseptic packaging, smart packaging, bioactive packaging, edible packaging which are research trends. Advances in such packaging technology may prevent food spoilage by maintaining the food standard at the highest possible degree which may help in satisfying the needs of consumers throughout the food supply chain as well as fulfilling the requirements as per Food Packaging Laws. Keywords: packaging, packaging material, food packaging techniques, novel packaging technology, food packaging law, storage Introduction Packing: Food packaging is done in order to provide the basic protection to food materials from various direct and indirect contaminants, apart from protecting the food from damage, leakage, etc. Food packaging also aids in preservation and storage of food throughout the supply chain. Packaging: Packaging is generally done as a final process where packed goods/products are further packaged into bigger boxes, courier bags, bubble envelopes, cardboard, cartons or whatsoever. However, both the term packing and packaging are commonly used interchangeably. Packaging is an art of presenting a product. It is more about the appearance, colour, design or presentation of the final product wrapped in a material to attract the consumers. Packaging also plays an important role in tempting custome

The crucial role of biodegradable polymerManeeshSonkar
Biodegradable polymers play a crucial role in reducing the environmental impact of plastic waste. Unlike traditional plastics, which can take hundreds of years to decompose, biodegradable polymers break down naturally in the environment over a shorter period of time. This reduces the amount of plastic waste that ends up in landfills and oceans, where it can harm wildlife and contribute to pollution.
Biodegradable polymers are also important for the development of sustainable packaging materials. They can be used to create packaging that is both durable and environmentally friendly, reducing the need for single-use plastics. Additionally, biodegradable polymers can be used in agriculture to create biodegradable mulch films that help reduce soil erosion and improve crop yields.
Despite their potential benefits, there are several challenges associated with biodegradable polymers. One major challenge is that they often require specific conditions to break down, such as high temperatures or exposure to certain enzymes or microorganisms. If these conditions are not met, the biodegradable polymer may not decompose as expected.
Another challenge is that biodegradable polymers can be more expensive to produce than traditional plastics, which can make them less accessible to consumers and businesses. Additionally, there is currently no standardized definition or certification for what qualifies as a biodegradable polymer, which can lead to confusion and greenwashing.
Finally, there is concern that widespread use of biodegradable polymers may lead to unintended consequences, such as increased reliance on single-use products or decreased emphasis on recycling and waste reduction efforts. As with any solution, it is important to consider the potential trade-offs and unintended consequences before implementing widespread use of biodegradable polymers. Overall, biodegradable polymers offer a promising solution to the global plastic waste crisis, and their continued development and use will be essential in creating a more sustainable future.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

flavor/odor taints, releasing ethanol, sorbates, antioxidants and/or other
preservatives and/or maintaining temperature control
Active packaging
8. Aseptic packaging
Aseptic packaging is a method in which food is sterilized or commercially sterilized
outside of the.
The disadvantage of these packages is that they are not as easily recycled as
metal and glass containers.
Aseptically processed foods can be packaged in LDPE/ Pb/ LDPE/ AL/ LDPE
laminate cartons and multilayer plastic flexible packaging
9. Green Packaging
Although food packaging has a small environmental impact, comprising less than
three per cent of food waste on average, consumers feel that they would like to
see products packaged with less material. This is sometimes referred to as
sustainable packaging. Collectively, packaging that is of minimal impact is efficient,
renewable and recyclable. In response to this the packaging industry has
developed a range of solutions:
10. Smart packaging
Packaging that can sense the environment and convey information – ‘intelligent
packaging’, and the ability to change the internal packaging environment in
response to internal and external changes – ‘active packaging’. Examples of the
former include food freshness indicators, time/ temperature indicators, and RFID
devices. Examples of the latter include self-venting films, self-heating or cooling
packs, gas scavengers and emitters. Packaging can be termed ‘active’ when it
performs some desired role in food preservation
11. Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP)
New developments include the use of argon used instead of nitrogen for some
applications, it has a beneficial effect on reducing food spoilage. Other changes
have included the use of MAP in new applications, or expansion into new products
in existing areas, example, fresh produce, fresh meat, poultry and fin fish, ready
meals and bakery products.
12. Edible films and coatings
Edible films and coatings are produced from edible biopolymers and food- grade
additives. Films are a separate structure, usually thin; if thicker they are called
sheets. Coatings are films applied directly to the product.
Polymers can be proteins, carbohydrates, gums, or lipids, singly or in combination.
Plasticizers and other additives are combined with the film forming polymers to
modify the functional properties of the film. Uptake is dependent upon consumer
acceptance and regulatory issues; they must be made of food-grade, non-toxic
materials.
Various applications - from wax coatings on fruits and confectionery, sausage
casings made from collagen, and coatings for delicate products, such as nuts, or
bakery products to protect from oxidation and/or physical damage.
New applications - use of edible films and coatings to deliver an active concept, for
example an antimicrobial, or to reduce water vapor, oxygen, carbon dioxide or
ethylene transfer into or out of the product.
13. Future trends in packaging
Sustainable or green packaging is going to remain the major item on the
packaging agenda for the foreseeable future, with the increase in environmental
concerns at the local, national and global level. Light weighting, alternative
technologies, biodegradable and products made from renewable resources will
form the core of this movement.
Amendments to the food contact regulations within the EU permitting active and
intelligent packaging should allow for an increase in the use of this technology for
this market. Active packaging will continue to increase its market share in the new
technologies, as it can deliver cost effective spoilage and safety control for minimal
environmental impact.
