[What is green tea extract]

Green tea is the second largest beverage demanded by consumers worldwide. Used in China and India for its medicinal effects. There are several compounds extracted from green tea including catechins which contain an enormous amount of hydroxyphenols that are easily oxidized, congregated and contracted, which explains its good anti-oxidation effect. Its anti-oxidation effect is 25-100 times as strong as those of vitamin C and E.

It is widely used in medicines, agriculture, and chemical and food industries. This extract prevents cardio-vascular disease, lowers the risk of cancer, and decreases blood sugar and blood pressure, as well as viruses. In the food industry, the anti-oxidation agent used for preserving food and cooking oils.

[Function]

1. Green tea extract can reduce blood pressure, blood sugar, blood lipids.

2. Green tea extract has the function of removing radicals and anti-aging.

3. Green tea extract can enhance the immune function and prevention of colds.

4. Green tea extract will anti-radiation,anti-cancer, inhibiting the increasing of cancer cell.

5. Green tea extract used to anti-bacterium, with the function of sterilization and deodorization.

[Application]

1.Applied in cosmetics field, Green tea extract owns the effect of anti-wrinkle and anti-Aging.

2.Applied in food field, Green tea extract is used as natural antioxidant, antistaling agent, and anti-fading agents.

3.Applied in pharmaceutical field, Green tea extract is used to prevent and cure cardiovascular disease, diabetes.

“In Search of the (Membrane) Holy Grail: A 20-Year Journey”

Mark Benjamin
Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Washington

ABSTRACT: Natural organic matter (NOM) is universally recognized as a major foulant of membranes used for drinking water treatment. The fouling has been attributed to adsorption of NOM in membrane pores and/or to formation of a gel layer that covers the membrane surface. Colloids, humics, and polysaccharides have each been implicated as major contributors to this fouling material. Most efforts to reduce the impact of this fouling have focused on pretreatment with conventional coagulants or powdered activated carbon.
We have developed a new micron-sized, granular adsorbent by mild heating of aluminum hydroxide and demonstrated that it can adsorb NOM rapidly and more efficiently than conventional additives. In addition, a cake layer of the new adsorbent imposes very little hydraulic resistance. As a result, when these adsorbents are used as the media for precoat filtration, a substantial portion of the NOM can be removed from the feed with only a few seconds of contact time, thereby reducing DBP formation potential and also dramatically reducing the fouling of downstream membranes. Our recent research has focused identifying the chemical characteristics of the fouling fraction of the NOM, on ways to efficiently backwash the adsorbents off of the support material after their capacity to collect the contaminants has been exhausted, and on regeneration of adsorbent.
At virtually every step in the research, we have encountered unexpected and challenging issues, many of which we have overcome, but others of which we continue to struggle with. The presentation will provide an overview of the successes, the frustrations, and the excitement we still feel about the potential of this new process.
