Indoor air pollution has been a challenge for many businesses especially production and manufacturing industries. The health threats varies from short-term, where sore throat and eye irritation are common examples. Long-term effects poses more problems especially when there is respiratory complications, other forms of infection, or worse, cancer.
The growing number of micro-particulates emission is found to be one of the leading causes of poor indoor air quality (IAQ). The importance of IAQ has not been given a lot of attention even though a lot of the working population work indoors. But the abundance of indoor pollution isn't the only contributor to polluting the air, poor ventilation is also a significant factor.
To address air pollution, air filters, cleaners, and purifiers were invented - way back in its first conceptualization in the 16th century. With time and the advancement of technology, filters are now more functional and efficient in trapping contaminants and pollutants.
Advanced air filtration systems work as a team. Equipped with a high-end filter, the system doesn't just traps micro particles. It can be equipped with ultraviolet light to degrade bacteria and viruses, activated carbon to trap toxic chemicals and contaminants and eliminate unwanted odor or smell.

Food service businesses (restaurants and grocery stores) use 2.5 times more energy than the average commercial business. Think about it: all the stoves, ovens, heat lamps, dish washers, refrigerators, and fryers turning out meal after meal, it makes sense that they are energy intensive. However, kitchens are also hectic places where simple energy wasters often get ignored in the hustle and bustle.
Richard Young, from the Food Service Technology Center in California, highlighted a long list of simple changes that food service businesses can make that can shave big bucks off their energy bills at his presentation at Dunwoody College on Monday March 21st. From stopping leaking faucets and closing ice maker lids all the way to replacing exhaust hoods and re-doing their lighting, businesses have a huge variety of opportunities, from small to large, free to expensive.

Using pioneering new technologies in Superfoods and nutrition, CFTRI has developed amazing new products which are on show at CFTRI stall at Pragati Maidan:
· Chia and Quinoa based Chocolates and Laddoos;
· Omega-3 enriched ice-cream;
· Multigrain banana bar
· Fruit juice based carbonated drinks.
New Delhi, 24th November, 2016: CSIR-Central Food Technological Research Institute (CFTRI), the premier national institute for food technology is exhibiting a range of new agri-products now grown in India, called Superfoods that bring health and nutrition best practices to everyday eating and living to the common man. The exhibits by CFTRI at the Trade Fair at Pragati Maidan in New Delhi both impress and surprise with the range and scope of their utility and potency.
The Indian population is presently going through a nutrition transition and there is an increase in incidence of diabetes, impaired heart health and obesity while there is still rampant malnutrition in the nation.
Keeping in mind an effective solution needed to address these concerns, CSIR-CFTRI is working on bringing Superfoods to the Indian population. CFTRI works on various facets of food technology, food processing, advanced nutrition, Superfoods and allied sciences. Superfoods are foods which have superior nutrition profiles which upon regular consumption can help improve health and wellness of the consumer.
CFTRI has developed the agro-technology for growing Superfoods viz. Chia and Quinoa in Indian conditions. Chia is the richest source of omega-3 fats from a vegetarian source and Quinoa has excellent protein quality and low glycemic load carbohydrates. Comprehensively, Chia and Quinoa have potential to improve population health and both blend seamlessly into traditional food preparations.
CSIR-CFTRI also infuses the spirit of entrepreneurship in their students. One of the doctoral students after completing her academic program started her own technology provider start-up company, Oleome Biosolutions Pvt Ltd. In a global first, CSIR-CFTRI in collaboration with Oleome, has developed a 100% vegetarian, Omega-3-enriched Ice cream called “Nutriice” using Chia oil.
CSIR-CFTRI is also in the process of the final phase of testing of diacylglycerol (DAG) oil, a unique cooking oil that has “Anti-Obesity” functionalities. One can consume it as part of daily regular diet and while the oil is available as energy but does not get stored as fat in our bodies. The final phase of human clinical trial is presently under progress.
CFTRI has also designed and developed snacks with advanced nutrition designs to support the nutrition needs of growing children. These have been implemented in the aganwadi levels to complement the existing government mid-day meal and will be scaled up soon. The products, such as Nutri Chikki with spirulina, rice beverage mix, high protein rusk, energy food, nutri sprinkle, seasame paste and fortified mango bars have been well received by the children and the anganwadis alike. Multi-grain Banana bar is a new addition to in this product portfolio.
Another exciting area of multidisciplinary research being done at CSIR-CFTRI is on nanotechnology, food technology and nutrition. Nanomaterials are known for their characteristic properties and CSIR-CFTRI is working on the use of nanoparticles for various applications. One of our interesting developments is the design and development of food packaging material with nanoparticles with antimicrobial and antioxidant properties to improve shelf-life of processed foods.
CSIR-CFTRI is also working on “Smart Foods” to answer specific needs of the consumer. These promising and specifically designed innovations are being developed for better sleep, better skin health, improved digestion, better cognitive performance and better stress management. The high science is brought into a simple food product, like a cereal bar which helps one to be more attentive over the day, or a unique dosa mix that helps in working out better at the gym with lower perceived exhaustion and even a special soup to help sleep better at night!
Speaking on the sidelines of the CSIR-CFTRI exhibition at Pragati Maidn, Prof. Ram Rajasekharan, Director, CFTRI said “Our mandate is to find innovative solutions to India agricultural and nutritional challenges. Our aim is to develop products to make Indian agriculture productive, efficient and at a consumer level gradually replace drugs with foods that will promote better health and wellness. We strive to deliver our best in improving food security and nutrition security, also developing a stronger, smarter and healthier India”.

Last year CEA Project Logistics were employed to assist the Royal Thai Navy in the transportation and shipping of a USD multi-million Seahawk Helicopter.
This project was executed with the upmost efficiency with all parties involved being very happy with the outcome.
Such was the professionalism of the teams at CEA and the impression they gave, the Royal Thai Navy once again employed their service and assistance on a very similar project.For this project another Seahawk helicopter was to be transported and shipped to Australia for maintenance and repairs.
CEA teams, Royal Thai Navy personnel and representatives from the maintenance company convened at Utapao Airport in Rayong province Thailand to begin the project. As with all projects CEA conduct a tool box talk was given to the teams to explain the lift and rigging plan for the day. Rigging equipment was then prepared while another team set up a safe exclusion barricade for the operational activities.
Personnel from the Royal Thai Navy carefully moved the valuable cargo into position for the lift.Two Modular spreader bars were assembled with the required nylon slings attached, these were then attached to the waiting 55 T mobile crane. The slings and shackles were attached to the designated lift points on the Seahawk, with the fuselage of the helicopter being protected by use of sling pads. Chain blocks were used to make precise alterations to the lift to ensure that the helicopter lifted level.
As the helicopter rose form the ground a Drop-Deck Air Ride trailer was placed underneath, the Seahawk was lowered on to the trailer and secured in her slots. All slings and shackles were carefully removed and the rigging team went to action securely lashing down the helicopter readying her for the journey to CEA HQ in Laem Chabang.
Upon arrival at CEA the Seahawk was transported to one of their main warehouses and removed from the trailer. After all checks were complete a CEA Shrink Wrap team set to work enveloping the whole helicopter in an industrial grade shrink wrap that will protect the Seahawk from the corrosive effects the elements can produce during transportation.
The Aircraft was transported again on the Drop-Deck Air Ride Trailer to Laem Chabang Port where a Mafi Trailer was awaiting. Prior to loading the Mafi was thoroughly cleaned and sprayed with Cilsin 25 to negate any issues with Australian DAFF/AQIS authorities upon arrival. As the fore wheels were wider than the Mafi a steel plate extension was fabricated by the CEA team for a safe and secure load. The Aircraft was safely loaded onto the Mafi and professionally lashed by CEA under the close supervision of a 3rd party marine surveyor.
After she was loaded a tug master pushed the Mafi and aircraft into place on the RoRo vessel where it was safely secured for the transit to Australia. Hats off to the CEA team who once again handled another multi-million USD shipment without incident.
