  1. 1. Global Effect of the EU Food Carbon Tax on Food Industries and Products: Case Study of Brazil

    University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

    Author : Shaomeng Sun; Lan Yao; [2022]
    Keywords : Carbon tax; Food Policy; International trade; Input Output;

    Abstract : Several researchers suggest an introduction of a food carbon tax in EU to reduce food emissions following the European Green Deal, but taking into account food international trade, such action in EU could raise global food prices and results in possible decline in food production in some regions, thus reduce people's welfare, which is not in line with the global Sustainable Development Goals. Given that existing studies mainly focus on the local environmental, social, and economic effects of a carbon tax, our paper takes a further step by studying the possible global effect of the EU food carbon tax on food industries and products with Brazil as a case.

  5. 5. Shelf life of fresh-cut fruits and salad leaves treated with Pulsed Electric Field (PEF)

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Chandan Soni; [2019]
    Keywords : PEF; pulsed electric field; reversible electroporation; calorimeter; metabolic rate; shelf life; fresh commodities; food engineering; livsmedelsteknik; Agriculture and Food Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Application of Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) treatment on five fresh commodities was analysed for the changes in the metabolic and physiological effects on their shelf life. Treatment parameters were optimised in order to achieve uniform electroporation on the samples, which was analysed by Propidium Iodide staining for the leaf samples. READ MORE
