Food Security
BEYOND FUEL SUBSIDY – THE PERCEPTION OF A FOOD TECHNOLOGIST AND THE ENVIRONMENT.
■The Technology behind Bio -Ethanol started as far back as 1974 in Nigeria co- sponsored by one of the Oil majors then. Producing Absolute 98%, Potable94-96% and Industrial Ethanol. Some of us that anchored the programme are still available.
■ Brazil in the last 50 years perfected the use of regulations and direct government investment to develop a highly efficient Bio-fuel industry. E85%- formulation is 85% of Ethanol to a mix of PMS.
■ Nigeria has abundant raw materials for Bio-fuel wasting away eg. Sugar processing waste called Molasses and large expanse of land for Cassava cultivation and farming.

GOVERNMENT INVESTMENT.
The recent News Headlines that “FG targets 180billion Naira revenue from Cassava Bio- Ethanol by Infrastructure Concession Regulatory Commission (ICRC) which will be done on a pilot phase, aimed to build a biotechnology Industrial Park on a 20-hectares plot across 20 Universities, academia and R&D Institutes.
One aspect of our educational system that merit attention is one that invoke global competitiveness.
●What Nigeria need most is Government investment in the creation of knowledge to the younger generation in renewable cleaner energy sources for the 21st century rather than SUBSIDISING THE OIL INDUSTRY.
● Renewable energy will prolong productivity with uninterrupted working hours especially in Food processing, various operations such as in cooling and other unit operations , while the emissions of carbon is minimised, checkmating Climate change actions.
JOINT VENTURE PARTNERSHIP
At WufasAgronet, we opined that 1% of oil revenues from the Oil companies Joint Venture Partnership (JVP) worth Billion of Dollars quarterly profits goes towards financing RENEWABLE energy Research and Development with necessary infrastructure put in place. This would pay huge economic,foreign policy and environmental / democracy dividends.
• It could be the vehicle by which the new generation of Nigerians scientists and engineers could source new export industries and high wage jobs. Also, flexible and sensitive regulations can spur private sectors innovation and investment in the renewable energy sector of Bio fuel.
CLIMATE CHANGE
The environmental consequences of our fossil fuel based economy is real in the drastic climate change globally, such as the Melting ice caps, Rising sea levels, Changing weather patterns, Violent tonadoes, Disappearing forests, Frequent hurricanes, Endless sand storm dust , Threatening human’s respirational illness and many others.
Countries like Brazil had already done this in the last 50 years . Brazil have used a mix of regulations and direct government investment to develop a highly efficient Bio fuel industry, above 70% of thier vehicles now run on sugar based Ethanol instead of gasoline.
Nigeria like Brazil can try High fuel -efficiency standard like the E85 vehicles ( fuel formulation of 85% Ethanol) could be the future of the auto industry in Nigeria.These will not only check climate actions but create enabling jobs in agriculture that will eradicate poverty.

-Antioxidants
Cashews are rich in carotenoids and Polyphenols antioxidants that helps reduce inflammation and offers protection from disease.
-Low Sugar
Cashews are low in sugar which helps reduce the risk for serious diseases such as Type 2 Diabetes, Lung disease, Heart disease, Liver disease, fatty buildup and enhances weight loss.
-Rich in Fibers
Fibers are very important to normalize bowel movement, also increases weight and size of stool thereby improving transit.
-Plant Protein
Cashews contain phytonutrients and quicker muscle repair property. Plant proteins have been linked to a lower risk of stroke heart disease
-Essential micro-nutrients
Cashew kernels are a good source of copper, magnesium and Manganese (nutrients for energy production, brain health, immunity and bone health
).
-Reduce cholesterol
Too much cholesterol in the body cause plaque buildup in arteries which can lead to atherosclerosis (cardiovascular disease).

TYPES OF COLD CHAINS
-SHOCK FREEZERS
Shock Freezers are professional equipment that controls temperature necessary for keeping products fresh for a long time.
While preserving the products the equipment makes to keep undamaged nutritional value of the products after being defrosted. The equipment is made to consists of Double Stage Semi Hermatic compressors. The Shock freezers system allows to lower the temperature very rapidly up to -180°C degrees. Freezing is provided by air coolers of it by blowing over fronted surface of the wagon. This enables to freeze down quickly in cold air flow. The room air should not exceed 35°/-40.°C. Besides, it’s proven to be a low-waste and environment friendly system.
COLDSTORAGE
This system is manufactured and installed with the entire components like it is ready to use. It could be of mobile device.
This system can be disassembled so it can be moved to other places.
Cold storage consist of the following levels and types of preserving:
-Cold-rooms 🙁 +16° / +5°C)
-Cold storage Rooms (+5°/-5°C)
-Freezing Rooms : (-18°/-23°C)
-Shock freezer :(-35°/-40°C) .
DEEPFREEZE ROOMS.
These are for preserving products such as meat, poultry etc. For a long time. They are preserved under temperatures not exceeding – 18°/-23°C. In order to isolate these rooms 150mm width sandwich panels are used.
COLD ROOMS
Cold rooms are used to keep baked goods, chocolates etc.
The cold rooms prevent bacteria from growing. Low ventilation allows workers to work without endangering their health which is very important aspect too.
