4. A new generation ofsmart food packaging : A combination of releasing anti-microbial and generation carbon dioxide inmeat packaging
University essay from Karlstads universitetAbstract : Abstract Food sustainability depends significantly on packaging since it helps maintainfood safe and fresh throughout its shelf life, resulting in the least amount ofwaste and the least negative environmental impact. The main objective of thisstudy is to determine the adsorbed and released amount of antimicrobial agents(benzoic acid and thymol) on modified calcium carbonate (MCC) by investigating adsorption isotherm at 25°C and desorption kinetics at both 22°C and5°C of anti-microbial to identify potential solutions to enhance the long-termsustainability of fresh products such as meat.
