  5. Detection and investigation of adulteration in Arabica coffee with an electronic nose and artificial intelligent
    Saleh Azari giglu 2024
      Coffee is a common drink made from roasted and ground coffee beans. The coffee plant is native to the subtropical regions of Africa and some islands in South and Southeast Asia. When the fruit of the coffee plant ripens, the coffee beans are harvested, processed and finally dried. Dried coffee beans are roasted to different degrees and depending on the desired aroma, different grades are considered for this product. Coffee is slightly acidic and can cause human irritation due to its high caffeine content. Coffee is one of the most valuable basic products, which is the second main commodity after oil. The detection of natural and unnatural impurities and additives in coffee is a constant concern, especially in relation to guaranteeing the quality of the product with the intentional or accidental addition of foreign substances that can harm the consumer, especially of an economic nature. Therefore, researchers are always trying to provide a suitable solution for detecting adulteration in coffee, which is of great importance considering the applicability of the method and obtaining the appropriate result for the tests, non-destructive and fast method. The purpose of this research was to use the olfactory machine system and artificial intelligence to detect fraud in Arabica coffee (Medium Dark). For this purpose, firstly, Arabica coffee beans from a reputable domestic company and samples of fake powders including roasted soybean powder, wheat flour Barley flour and Robusta coffee were prepared in the amount needed in the experiment. To carry out the experiments, Arabica coffee was mixed with adulterated powders with weight percentages of 10, 40, 30, 20 and 50%. For each sample of coffee and powders used for fraud, a 100% specific sample was considered. 10 grams of the mixture of each sample was added to 100 ml of boiling water and kept boiling for 2 minutes. Finally, it was kept at rest and away from heat for one minute until the particles settled and finally the supernatant was used to perform the smell test. After the step of sucking the smell of the sample by the olfactory device, the obtained data were analyzed by PCA, LDA and ANN methods. According to the obtained results, the ANN method provided a better classification than the LDA method.

  7. Modeling of oxidation stability for biodiesel and its various blends based on olfactory indices
    Osman Mobaraki 2023
       Abstract Energy, as one of the most important and necessary production factors, has a significant impact. Considering that fossil fuel resources are running out, researchers are looking to replace biodiesel fuel as a renewable biofuel with properties close to diesel. The current research seeks to model electronic nose data in predicting the oxidation stability and physical and chemical characteristics of biodiesel and to investigate the oxidation stability of biodiesel samples with the Rancimat device and to apply algorithms based on artificial and statistical intelligence. In this research, biodiesel fuels were prepared from different sources of rapeseed and sunflower oil and cooking waste with methanol and KOH (potassium hydroxide) catalyst. Each of the fuels is mixed with diesel fuel at a volume percentage of 2, 5, 10 and 20, with the help of an electronic nose system equipped with 10 sensors that can analyze the volatile components in the empty space of the sample container, physical and chemical characteristics such as density , viscosity along with their oxidation stability were analyzed by standard Rancimat method in different periods of time (each test in one month). Also, with different methods such as artificial neural network (ANN), principal component analysis (PCA), linear and quadratic discriminant analysis (LDA and QDA), support vector machine analysis (SVM) and response surface method (RSM) each month. was analyzed. The obtained results showed that for the classification and separation of pure fuels, the ANN method is able to separate pure fuels with 100% accuracy every four months. Other SVM classification methods in each four months were 94, 95, 82, 84 respectively, for QDA 100, 100, 100 and 99, in RSM these orders were 100, 93, 98 and 96 and LDA respectively in each month with accuracy 100, 98, 100 and 100% pure fuels were separated and categorized. Also, to identify and place types of pure fuels (D100, K100, WCO100, SUN100) in one group (Pure) and types of impure fuels in another group (Impure), ANN method with 100, 98.8, 100 and 100% accuracy is able to Separation of pure fuel from diesel-biodiesel combination.

  9. Detection of melamine adulteration in powdered milk by electronic nose method
    Pouya Darvishi 2023
       Abstract   Dairy products, renowned for their substantial nutritional value, are pivotal in general nutrition and the food industry. However, their considerable economic significance makes them susceptible to fraudulent practices. Standard deceptive techniques include dilution with water, substitution with different types of milk, fat content alteration, and cheese infusion into milk. Incorporating whey or whey solids into dairy products is a prevalent adulteration method. The notorious 2008 incident in China, involving the illicit adulteration of milk with melamine, resulted in kidney and urinary tract complications in 294,000 children, leading to six fatalities. Deliberate melamine contamination has been observed in milk, infant formula, pet food, and other items. These incidents have spurred the development of analytical methodologies for quantifying melamine in food and animal feed. This study employs an electronic olfaction technique to discern adulterated milk powder. Experimental protocols involve preparing and combining powdered milk, whey powder, and melamine at varying adulteration levels (10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%). All tests are conducted across five different whey powder and melamine concentrations, employing both dry and water-boiled testing methods with the electronic nose apparatus. Data are subjected to rigorous analysis through Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), Support Vector Machine (SVM), and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) methodologies. The PCA loading plot for dry tests reveals the substantial influence of MQ136, MQ3, and TGS2602 sensors on the principal component, whereas MQ9, MQ3, and TGS822 sensors exhibit the highest impact in detecting milk powder adulteration. LDA analysis yields an accuracy rate of 86.67% for dry tests and an impressive 95.15% for wet tests in dir="RTL" >   Keywords: Milk Powder, Adulteration, Electronic Nose, Whey Powder, Melamine, Chemometrics
  10. Evaluation of sucrose content of sugar beet using image processing and artificial intelligence to determine the best harvest time
    Ziba Karimi 2023
       Sugar beet is one of the most suitable plants for sugar production. Sugar beet leaves produce sugar by using sunlight, and these sugars return to the root and are stored there. In general, leaves play the role of a sugar factory. The percentage of beet sugar is very important for both the farmer and the sugar factory, because the price of beet is paid based on this. The purpose of this research was to estimate the amount of sucrose in the sugar beet crop using the image processing method and to determine the best time to harvest the sugar beet crop. For this purpose, data was collected from an area of 1000 square meters of a sugar beet field, one month before the recommended harvest date and one month after that, every other day. Each time, 5 whole sugar beet plants were randomly picked and all the leaves were photographed. In order to estimate the amount of sugar beet and obtain the most suitable harvest time with the image processing method, it is necessary to have a suitable modeling between the harvest index and the harvest time of the product. The most important indicator of sugar beet harvest is sugar grade. For this purpose, using the decision tree method, we tried to select the most effective inputs from the features of the leaves and their images. Then a model was designed to find the maximum sugar level according to the harvest time using the RSM method. The best time to harvest sugar beet with the highest quality sugar was obtained on the 210th day after planting. In the tested area, sugar beet was harvested on the 215th day, which was almost consistent with the modeling calculations by the response surface. To design a decision, it is helpful to be able to inform the farmer of the approximate harvest time, the time elapsed from the day of planting to the harvest of each sample was deducted from the optimal harvest time that has the highest sugar content, and their difference is used as the output of the decision support model. The results of the decision tree showed that the average value of B corresponding to the smallest leaf area, the smallest leaf area value, and the largest leaf area value are suitable inputs for formulating a decision. For the design and modeling of decision support, three methods of response level modeling, Anfis and artificial neural networks were used. The value of R2 in the response surface method, Anfis and neural networks were 0.83, 0.832 and 0.80 respectively, and the Anfis method was selected as the best model with the highest accuracy.
  11. Identification of poisonous and edible mushrooms using electronic nose and artificial intelligence
    Peyman Gholami 2023
       One of the most important topics in mycological sciences is the topic of identifying nonedible mushrooms and identifying them from edible mushrooms. Today, the number of people who get poisoned by consuming nonedible mushrooms is increasing. As a result, the detection and separation of edible mushrooms from nonedible ones is of great importance. Considering the research in this field and the need to perform high-cost and somewhat inaccessible tests such as GC, methods should be sought. It was an alternative to these tests. The method of artificial intelligence and electronic nose is a non-destructive and accessible method with a much lower cost compared to GC. In fact, the purpose of this experiment is to study an olfactory system to distinguish edible mushrooms from poisonous mushrooms based on electronic nose technology and to help maintain health and treat diseases and reduce poisoning caused by poisonous mushrooms. Therefore, in this research, an olfactory system was used to detect and identify edible and nonedible mushrooms. ANN methods, PCA principal component analysis, LDA linear discriminant analysis, QDA 2nd degree linear discriminant analysis and SVM support vector machine were used to analyze the data obtained from the olfactory system. The classification of the data obtained from the signals obtained from the sensor array showed that the LDA, QDA and ANN methods have a very good performance in separating mushrooms based on their edible and nonedible nature and high accuracy in classification. Obtained. The use of QDA method to separate and classify different types of edible and nonedible mushrooms was more effective and accurate than LDA method.

  15. Detection of common adulteration and corruption in the tomato paste by using the olfactory machine
    Sanaz Sadrian 2023
      Tomato paste is the main tomato product that is prepared commercially or traditionally at home. According to the definition of the World Health Organization, adding any unauthorized and harmful substances to the food basket of humans and animals is called fraud. Sometimes the profit seeker puts in food to reduce the production costs and get more profit and endangers human health. Therefore, it is necessary to use new methods with a fast and high response level to identify additives in the paste. It is completely reduced or destroyed, in this case such a food item is corrupted and it is called rotten. In this research, it is tried to be able to provide the nutritional health of the communities with the help of smelling machine, in addition to detecting corruption in tomato paste, by identifying common frauds, including the identification of unauthorized preservative additives in tomato paste. In this research, the work was carried out in two sections, examining the experiments of the fraud section and the experiments of the corruption section. In order to evaluate these changes, the physicochemical tests of the paste, which included the measurement of pH, acidity, Brix, sediment weight percentage and smell test, were performed. According to the results of the confusion matrix of LDA and C-SVM methods, both methods performed well in detecting different percentages of potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate. LDA also performed better than C-SVM with 100% recognition accuracy. C-SVM and PCA could distinguish with high accuracy the samples containing sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate in 0.1 and 0.05 percent. The PLS model was the best model for predicting acidity and the MLR model was the best model for predicting sediment weight percentage, Brix and pH. TGS2620 sensors,. MQ135, TGS2602 had the highest sensitivity in identifying adulterated tomato paste samples.

    Milad Tavar 2022
    In order to maintain the quality of fruits and increase their shelf life, extensive research has been done on packaging methods, especially the use of nanomaterials in packaging. Due to the high medicinal and nutritional properties of garlic and also the sensitivity of its storage period after peeling, the packaging of this product is of great importance. In this study, garlic was packaged in two normal and nano films at temperatures of 25, 4   and -18   ° C and three modes of normal atmosphere, vacuum and modified atmosphere. Measured properties include mechanical properties (Fmax, Emod and deformation percentage), chemical properties (PH and TSS), colorimetric properties (L *, color change and browning index) as well as the amount of gas (O2 and CO2) inside It was packages. Data analysis was performed in two sections of 14 days including all three temperatures and 35 days including refrigerator temperature and freezer temperature. Data were analyzed by statistical methods and artificial neural network (ANN). The trend of changes during the storage period in mechanical properties (except deformation), the amount of CO2, TSS and L * decreased and in pH, the percentage of deformation, color change and browning index were reported as increasing. The results of statistical analysis showed that in the 14-day period, temperature changes had a significant effect on the measured parameters and in the 35-day period, temperature and the interaction of temperature and atmosphere had a significant effect on all parameters. The least changes in the measured properties occurred mainly in the nano film. In neural network (ANN) analysis, the output of the best model for the effect of treatments on properties, validation performance diagram, data regression coefficient (experimental, training and general) as well as data regression line fitting was measured.

  23. Cucumber classification based on the amount of consumed fertilizer using E-nose and Spectroscopy methods
    Sana Tatli 2022
       Vegetables and summer vegetables play an important role in human health due to their high fiber and antioxidant properties. Green cucumber is one of the oldest cultivated vegetables and has a known history of more than five thousand years. Green cucumber with the scientific name of Cucumis Sativus belongs to the squash family Cucurbiteacae, which is one of the most important plant families and includes 90 genera and 750 species. Researchers have concluded that the use of urea fertilizer will increase the yield of vegetables, which has led to the indiscriminate use of urea fertilizer by farmers. The use of urea fertilizer on farms should be controlled because excessive use will not only increase yield but also cause nitrate accumulation. Due to the fact that vegetables and summer vegetables have the ability to absorb and retain large amounts of nitrite and nitrate, so the consumption of such products by humans can endanger health. For this purpose, criteria have been considered that label products with authorized consumption of pesticides and chemical fertilizers as a healthy product. Detection of urea fertilizer overdose in farms is done using existing technologies such as chromatography (GC) or spectrometer gas chromatography (GC / MS) which is very costly and time consuming and requires specialized users. has it. Therefore, it is necessary to look for an easy and low-cost solution that can perform the test in the shortest time. In this study, five levels of urea fertilizer in cucumber were classified using electronic nasal method and chemical analysis and by chemometric methods. Urea fertilizer levels were zero, 100, 200, 300 and 400 kg / ha. In each urea fertilizer level, two harvests were performed at intervals of four and five months after sowing. Electronic nose technology is a modern and advanced technology that has many applications in the agricultural industry. In this study, an olfactory machine with eight metal oxide semiconductor sensors was used to detect the amount of urea fertilizer used in green cucumber cultivation, and Kojeldal was used to measure phosphorus by spectroscopy, flame diffusion potassium and nitrogen. Odor machine data were analyzed and classified by ANN, SVM, LDA and QDA methods and chemical analysis by PCR, PLS and MLR methods.

  26. Detection the adulteration in vinegar based on the level of acid acetic content using the electronic nose system
    Mohammad RAHMANPOR 2021
    In recent years, the growing population and increasing demand has led to an increase in food adulteration by profiteers. Adulteration in food products, in addition to reducing product quality and financial losses, is also detrimental to the health of consumers, so it has caused concern and weakened consumer confidence. Vinegar is a solution of acetic acid and other chemicals, such as flavorings, produced from the fermentation of various fruits. Vinegar has an important role in human life and health due to its medicinal properties, cleansing, preparation of pickles and use in various foods as a condiment. Mixing natural vinegar with relatively cheaper natural vinegar, white market vinegar, water and using industrial acetic acid in the production of artificial vinegar are the most common methods of adulteration in the market. It is difficult to find a technique that can easily and reliably evaluate the quality parameters of vinegar. Therefore, in recent decades, researchers have turned to the use of visual, olfactory, taste and computer methods in the food industry. Electronic nose is one of the new methods that has recently been highly regarded by researchers in agriculture and food industry, especially in the field of food quality assessment. In this study, a portable system was developed and implemented to evaluate the detection of adulteration in two types of natural vinegar (grape and apple). The electronic nose system consisted of eight metal oxide semiconductor sensors. Counterfeit vinegar was prepared by mixing grape and apple vinegar and both with white market vinegar, acetic acid and water in different proportions. The features extracted from the signals obtained from the system were processed by principal component analysis (PCA), artificial neural network (ANN), linear resolution analysis (LDA) and quadratic linear resolution analysis (QDA). In the main component analysis, simultaneous comparison (17 groups) of grape vinegar with a total variance of 88% separation was performed and based on the loading diagram, TGS2620 and MQ136 sensors were introduced as the best sensors in the 0.999, MSE = 0.000136. Apple cider vinegar was 0.998, MSE = 0.000513. According to the titration results, it was proved that in PCA analysis, the acetic acid level did not affect the variance of the samples chewed with grape vinegar and the lower the level of acetic acid in the chewed samples with apple cider vinegar, the higher the percentage of variance between samples. According to LDA and QDA analyzes, the smaller the difference between the acetic acid level of vinegar and the substance with which it is mixed, the weaker its detection and >

  28. Biolubricant production from camelina oil by microwave
    Kian Rokni 2020
       Abstract Vegetable oils, whose fatty acid hydrocarbon chain structure is very similar to the hydrocarbon structure of petroleum products, are an ideal alternative to petroleum lubricants due to their properties such as renewability and biodegradability. Biolubricants are obtained by modifying the chemical structure of vegetable oils. In this research, a two-stage transesterification-polyol ester method was used to produce a biolubricant based on Camellina oil. The required heat energy for the reaction was supplied by a microwave with a mechanical stirrer. A vacuum pump connected to a condenser was used to complete the transesterification reaction. Methanol condensing and returning it to the reaction vessel. In the initial stage, Camellia oil reacts with methanol in the presence of KOH catalyst and the microwave device with a constant power of 800 watts was set to Medium mode (12 seconds on and 16 seconds off) and stirring is performed continuously. Methyl ester, trimethylpropane (TMP) alcohol and potassium carbonate catalyst (K2CO3) were used in the biolubricant process. The microwave was set to Low (5 seconds on and 30 seconds off) and stirring is done continuously. Nuclear-hydrogen magnetic resonance spectroscopy (H-NMR) was used to analyze the efficiency of the transesterification reaction. In the biodiesel production stage, time factors, catalyst weight percentage and molar ratio of methanol to oil, and in the biolubricant production stage, factors such as time, catalyst weight percentage and biodiesel molar ratio to trimethylol propane (TMP) were investigated using RSM method and Box Behnken experimental design. . For biodiesel reaction, the regression model was quadratic and had an coefficient of determination (R2), standard deviation (Std. Dev.) And coefficient of variation (C.V.) of 97.80%, 3.02, and 4.03%, respectively. The optimization results showed that the highest biodiesel yield of 95.31%   was achived at the reaction time of 5.85 min, catalyst concentration of 1.26%, alcohol to Camellina oil molar ratio of 6.91, and desirability of 0.95. For biolubricant reaction, the regression model was quadratic and had determination coefficient of 97.97%, standard deviation of 0.91 and coefficient of variation of 1%. The optimization results showed that the highest biolubricant efficiency was obtained in 67.8 min, catalyst concentration of 1.4 wt% and molar ratio of 3.5. Under such conditions, the reaction efficiency was 94.3% with a desirability of 0.975. Some properties of produced biodiesel and biolubricant were evaluated and compared with EN14214, ASTM D6751, ISO VG10 and ISO VG22 standards.

  33. Detection and estimation of palm content in vegetable oils (corn, sesame, sunflower, rapeseed and olive oils) using an olfactory machine and artificial intelligence
    Zahra Zangnehvandy 2020
       Food fraud has increased dramatically in recent years. In addition to affecting product quality and causing financial losses, food fraud also has adverse effects on consumer health. And it has raised a lot of concerns about food consumption. One of the most widely used foods in the food industry are edible oils. Which is used in cooking. Solid vegetable oils, or oils such as palm oil, are high in saturated fatty acids, which can cause high blood fats, high cholesterol, and eventually clogged arteries. Cardiovascular از are the most important causes of death. The oils used in the food basket of people should have at least 2% of saturated and trans fatty acids. One of the reasons for usingPalm oil is cheaper than other sesame, corn, soybean and sunflower oils, and due to higher prices of other oils than palm oil, the share of imports of this oil compared to other oils has increased in the last two years. In cooking, a variety of oils are used, each taken from a separate source From grains such as corn to fruits such as olives, nuts such as walnuts, almonds and hazelnuts, and seeds such as canola, safflower and sunflower. It is difficult to find a way to easily determine the quality of edible oils. Therefore, in recent years, olfactory, visual, taste and computer methods have been used more in the food industry. Electric nose is a new method that is considered in agriculture and food industry today In this study, a system has been used to detect and estimate the amount of palm in edible oils. The optoelectronic system consisted of ten metal oxide semiconductor sensors. During the test, the voltage response of the sensors at a certain schedule to inject the head space into the sensor housing and then clean the housing in the next step was done automatically and collected by the data system. Types of edible oils were prepared by mixing with palm oil in different proportions. The properties extracted from the signals obtained from the electrical nose were processed by principal component analysis and artificial neural network methods. Based on the results, the olfactory machine is able to detect palm oil

    Ehsan Hemati 2018
      Today, due to the increasing population of the earth, the need for food supplies has increased. On the other hand, due to the reduction of water resources, water management needs, especially in the agricultural sector, are felt. For this purpose, several methods have been used to reduce water consumption, one of the most modern ones being precise irrigation, namely, the field moisture map. In this research, we attempted to extract from a sorghum field to a half-hectare wetland map by multi-capture and image processing. For this purpose, initial experiments were carried out to obtain the best height and best day of the day to be photographed. The farm was then divided into small pieces. Captured from each piece by a multi-capture. From different points of the farm, the samples were taken by recording the coordinates of the spots to obtain the percentage of moisture content of the plant in those points. Finally, the images were aggregated by the Arc GIS software Then the MATLAB software performed various image processing operations on the image. These operations include: plotting, separating the field, finding the neighborhood of points, extracting different data from neighboring points, modeling effective input parameters to estimate the plant's moisture content, applying model output to segmented images, aggregation, and so on. The best model obtained by neural networks consists of four roughness inputs, the mean values of the CM channel channel monochrome channel M, the mean values of the Y single channel channel of the CMY channel, the mean values of the channel B of the RGB channel, and the output of that percentage The weight of the plant was R2 and MSE of the model was 885/0 and 0/004, respectively. In the case of classification of the plant's moisture content into five classes of very watery, loose, moderate, low water and very low water, the perturbation matrix of the model was 90.5%.

    Hiwa Kohi 2018
    Using efficient policies in the operation of reservoirs has become very important due to the occurrence of periodic droughts and also limitation of water resources in Iran. The management of reservoirs is one of the most effective non-structural ways to overcome of these limitations such as water resources scarcity, water demands increasing and finally occurrence of drought. Using optimization techniques in optimal operation of water resource systems are one of the solutions that can reduce the effects of water shortages. In this study, optimal operation of Jamishan reservoir with the aim of optimal water allocation from reservoir is considered to supply the agriculture water demands of Dinavar and Chamchmal plains using stochastic and deterministic dynamic programing approaches. Applying of the water allocation priorities between release and storage targets to supply water demands in drought conditions is considered. In this study a 41-year hydrological period (from 1971 - 1972 to 2011-2012 years) has been used. Different interval of reservoir storage (3, 5, 7 and 10) and reservoir inflow (3, 5, and 7) were used for dynamic discretization of stochastic dynamic programming (SDP) model. The best reservoir and inflow and I=3 respectively. Stochastic dynamic programming was applied to Jamishan reservoir with these classes in seasonal and monthly period by several objective functions. Water allocation results and reservoir rule curve have been presented for each period. In case, 7 interval classes for reservoir storage and average monthly and seasonal reservoir inflow in each period were applied in dynamic programming (DP) model with several objective functions. The water allocation results were compared with SDP model. The results confirm that the SDP model had the better performance rather than the DP model in water allocation and reservoir rule curve with the least objective function.

The microscopic and TDS method was distinct from honey type. The (standard ?3). In combination method (C), by using the input parameters of the best model in all previous methods and performing sensitivity analysis, two parameters of (DiW) dissolution method and one parameter of microscopic imaging method (M) were selected and modeled using AFNIS, ANN, and RSM classification systems for hybridization and using the desirability function. The determination coefficient of RSM model was considered 0.9992. Among the best models in all five methods of this research, the RSM model was introduced in the combined method (C) with the least amount of statistical errors compared to other models with the most effective 0.9940 desirability function

    Emissions in motor vehicles, especially vehicles with spark ignition engines are the most important environmental parameters of air pollution in many countries. Given the global approach to reducing energy consumption and conservation of energy resources, especially fossil fuels in different countries, restrictions on vehicle fuel consumption has been defined at the international level. Reduction the exhaust gas temperature can be done by fuel enrichment which it will increase the fuel consumption. this problem can be solevd by cooled exhaust gas recirculation. This process will reduce pressure and temperature in the cylinder area during combustion, therefore the tendency to knock   will be reducted. In this study, using the ANSYS 13 software ( CFD section) a model of cooling radiator was analaysid and then based on the results form the model a recirculation circuit was built. The performance of engine temperature and produced emissions in five treatments includes without recirculation, recirculation without cooling and recirculation with cooling with three temperatures (15.4, 11.5 and 7.5 degrees) were test and evaluated. The results of variance analysis indicated a significant difference   for CO, CO2, HC, NOx, and inlet and outlet temperatures by changing the engine speed and recirculation type. Based on the results, the impact of changing the engine speed in the NOx emissions for all modes of recirculation was significant. Also, with increasing the engine speed,   the values of CO and HC emissions, and inlet and outlet air were increased. While with increaseing engine speed, the value of CO2 decreased.
