The slaughter of animals for meat is one of the few industries that turn almost every piece of waste into a useful by-product. Hide, hair, glands, fat, bones, organs, and intestines are converted into raw materials for a wide range of industrial, medical, human, and animal food products.
But there is one waste product that is exceptional to deal with, and until recently has defied efforts to find a satisfactory for its disposal. That is blood residue.
In 1982 more than 800,000 tons were dumped into public drainage systems throughout Europe. The hidden cost to taxpayers of pollution and the burden on sewage purification plants is high. In biological terms, the problem of disposal lies in neutralizing protein proportion, 140,000 tons, of the blood residue.
Several countries have developed methods of protein recovery. In Denmark and Finland, it is partially processed into animal feed for mink farms.
But the cost of that partial recovery is high and the protein recovered only a quarter of that available.
Two years ago France, which has the biggest slaughterhouses in Europe, began a two-year study into how abattoir blood residues might be used rather than simply neutralized for efficient disposal.
The outcome was a biotechnology process producing an alternative to soy or whey proteins, the additions to sausages, pates, cooked meats, and meat pies which supplement meat content or provide certain functional properties.
The process was perfected in conjunction with the Danish biotechnology company Novo Industri, a large manufacturer of industrial enzymes, which has developed a biotechnology-based process. It separates the harem (coloring pigment) from the globin in blood pigment, thus allowing all of the protein available in residue to be recovered. A plant on a commercial scale is to be tested in France soon.
The process is a combination of biochemical conversion with special enzymes and mechanical filtration that turns most of the original dark fluid into a cream-colored powder.

At the end of the Novo Industri process_____

Bulbs are ideal for new gardeners, including children, because they are easy to plant and they always flower well in their first season. They need comparatively little attention, provided that the soil has been properly prepared, and the place where they are planted is chosen with care. They will last for many years and give you an annual show of flowers that are often so richly colored or beautiful formed as to be in a class apart from other garden flowers.

However, it is a mistake to buy bulbs without any plan of what effect you really want from them. I have written this book to help in selecting the most suitable bulbs for the typical, small, modern garden of the non-specialist gardener, and have made some suggestions to help readers who may not have had a garden before.

Too many books for beginners tell new gardeners to grow a few “sensible” kinds of plants and leave the more interesting kinds to adventurous experts. For the first few years of one’s gardening life one should, it seems, concentrate on learning simple techniques while admiring the gardens of more experienced neighbors.

In fact, as a learner- -gardener you need not fear that your efforts will necessarily show your inexperience, because (and here I give away a most closely-guarded secret), provided the bulbs come from a really reliable source, it is possible to produce as good results in your first year of gardening as in your eightieth. There are some difficult bulbs that will disappoint you, notably some lilies and a few miniature daffodils, but these are often no more attractive than the really easy ones. Therefore, be bold with bulbs; they are a sound investment for any garden.

Never be content to plant the bulbs by themselves. The majority look best when planted among other kinds of plants because they have unattractive leaves which are thus hidden. There are a few bulbs, such as standard daffodils, which are, however, at their best grown in short grass.

Twenty years ago, before the North Sea discoveries, gas was already becoming the most domestic fuel – largely because of the success of the new gas fires and the growing demand for central heating. It’s was the cheapest fuel in the market then, though costs were being held down because of efficient new production and business methods. But its controllability, cleanliness, and other advantages, with the efficiency and attractiveness of the new gas appliances, made gas a winner.
Today, with 3 million more customers, gas is the long-established market leader. On latest figures, for example, it accounts for over three-quarters of all new central heating installation in Britain. It still has all its natural advantages, and much of the equipment available today is even more efficient. In addition, despite the price increases of recent years, gas is the best buy in the energy market in almost all applications. In fact, it is significantly cheaper today, in real terms, than it was twenty years ago.
As the cost of the gas, it buys from the North Sea has increased, British Gas has successfully pruned its other costs to keep prices to customers highly competitive. Indeed, a recent consultants’ report, jointly commissioned by the Government and British Gas, concluded that the Corporation had an impressive record over the last ten years in the efficient management of the industry. The battle continues to improve performance still more.
But you can get even better value from gas by some simple energy conservation measures. Lagging your loft, putting an insulating jacket on your hot water tank and weather-stripping windows and doors are all low-cost – and effective – ways of saving gas.
And it doesn’t cost anything to turn down your central heating thermostat a little, make sure your time clock only turns on the heating when you need it, or take a shower instead of a bath. For more detailed information on how to make the most of good value gas, pick up a copy of our free leaflet from your gas showroom.
Since most people are not paid quarterly, quarterly gas bills may be a bit of a headache, even though gas is in good value. That’s why the gas people offer a choice of ways to spread the cost of your gas more evenly throughout the year. You can pay monthly – by standing order or Post Office Giro, or in cash with our special Gas Vouchers if you don’t have a bank or Giro account. 

Or, if you’d prefer to put more aside at some times than at others, you can buy our Gas Savings Stamps at your gas showroom or from some sub-post offices.

 Ask at your showroom for detailed information about any of these schemes.

They do have some good films and some excellent documentaries so I am sometimes tempted to spend the extra money. On the other hand, there is so much information available on the Internet that TV will probably disappear altogether in a few years time. I’ve got a computer with an Internet connection and I spend quite a lot of time looking for information about the various (18)______ that interest me.

I also still listen to a lot of news (19)______ on the radio and this lets me keep up with what’s going on in the world. One thing that annoys me though is that the (20)______ seem to change all the time and sometimes I have a lot of trouble finding my favorite station. Of course, the problem could be that I haven’t got the aerial in the right position. That reminds me. I must remember to get some new batteries. I could hardly hear a thing when I tried to tune in this morning so they must be running out.

The latest development in the debate amongst scientists about what killed the prehistoric dinosaurs is the suggestion that acid rain was the cause. Two geologists from the Massachusetts Institute of ác lớp đá vẫn không bị xáo trộn kể từ kỷ Phấn trắngTechnology suggest that a large meteor hitting the earth at 65 kilometers per second would have led to strongly acidic rain falling all over the world.

The two geologists, Ronald Prinn, and Bruce Fegley calculated that if an ice-rich meteor weighing 12.5 million billion kilograms hit the Earth, it would shock- heat the atmosphere enough to produce huge amounts of nitrogen oxides. This would result, they say, in strongly acid rain around the world. If the meteor were traveling more slowly, or if it were more rock-like in structure, this strongly acid rain would be limited to a small area so that the world effect would be much less important. However, other groups of researchers have suggested that volcanoes, rather than meteors, could have produced these heavy does of acid rain, but over a much longer period – over 10,000 years.

Prinn and Fegley believe that their theory matches the pattern of animal and plant life at the end of the Cretaceous period 65 million years ago. It is well known from studying rock formations that it was at this time that dinosaurs and many other groups of prehistoric animals died out. Prinn and Fegley suggest one way in which their theory might be tested. Rock layers that have remained undisturbed since the Cretaceous era could be examined to see if they show any sign of the effects of very large amounts of acid rain on metals that do not dissolve in water such as iron and lead. Such undisturbed rock layers are, however, very rare.

What problem exists about doing the check that Prinn and Fegley have suggested?
