May 2015 c. vulgaris to biofuel presentationJoseph Barnes
Chlorella vulgaris is a species of green microalgae capable of generating lipids suitable for conversion into biofuel via the process of transesterification. Viable production of biofuel from green microalgae requires high biomass densities, 1.0 g/L or more. We attempted to enhance cell concentrations and biomass densities of Chlorella vulgaris by growing the microalgae in a fed-batch system. A practical fed-batch system using indoor photobioreactors was designed and modified during the course of the project; commercial-grade plant fertilizers were used for the principle substrates. Additional mineral nutrients, including MgSO4, were also used in order to boost growth rates and the carrying capacity for the closed bioreactors. During the course of the experiment we implemented three different methods. The fed-batch system successfully enhanced the targeted parameters of biomass yield and cell concentration. We reached a maximum biomass density of 0.58 g/L, this was short of our goal but higher than our earlier results in previous projects. We also analyzed the effects of distinctive wavelengths of visible light (colored light versus white light) on cell concentrations. Red light (wavelength of 650 nm) led to the most positive growth, producing a value twice more than that generated using only green light (540 nm). A final variable which we briefly touched was the surface area to volume ratio of the photobioreactor.

Non thermal process in preservation of foodGazanfar Abass
The document discusses various non-thermal food processing techniques as alternatives to traditional thermal processing. It provides examples of different non-thermal methods like pulsed electric field, high pressure processing, pulsed light technology, microwave heating, ohmic heating, and irradiation. These methods allow for higher production rates and better retention of nutrients, flavors and quality compared to thermal processing. While the equipment costs are initially higher, non-thermal processing is increasingly being used in both large-scale and small-scale food industries.
Minimal food processing techniques can help increase the shelf life of foods while maintaining nutritional value and fresh-like qualities. Some key techniques discussed in the document include:
- Low temperature storage, which slows microbial growth and metabolic reactions through chilling.
- Modified atmosphere packaging (MAP), which controls oxygen and carbon dioxide levels to slow spoilage.
- High hydrostatic pressure processing, which inactivates enzymes and microbes through non-thermal high pressure without changing taste or nutrition.
- Other techniques like oscillating magnetic fields, pulsed electric fields, and ozone treatment use non-thermal methods to eliminate microbes and extend shelf life minimally processed foods.
Pulsed electric field (PEF) technology uses short pulses of high-intensity electric fields to preserve foods. It offers advantages over thermal pasteurization like shorter treatment times, lower temperatures, and better retention of sensory and nutritional properties. PEF works by creating pores in microbial cell membranes, killing bacteria and extending shelf life. It has been used successfully to pasteurize various liquids like juices, milk, and soups without chemical preservatives. PEF processing also has applications in improving mass transfer for oil extraction, meat curing, sugar processing and extraction of compounds from algae and plant cells. However, high capital costs and inability to process solid foods limit its commercial use.

The use of nanotechnology could help reduce input waste and post-harvest losses through smart sensors and delivery systems. It may also decrease the need for human skills through easy-to-use devices. Current nanotechnology products in agriculture include supplements, colorants, packaging and pesticides.
Biotechnology can play an important role in abating environmental pollution through various applications. Microorganisms and biological processes can be used for wastewater treatment, bioremediation of polluted soil and water, producing more sustainable alternatives to plastics, fuels and other materials, and reducing overall environmental pollution. Examples discussed include using enzymes for detergents, cultivating meat without animals, and producing flavors and cosmetic ingredients through fermentation rather than traditional extraction methods.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
