Abstract: A method of operating a luminaire, the luminaire comprising or being coupled to a battery, the battery being coupled via a grid charging unit to a mains grid, and the luminaire comprising or being coupled to a solar unit; the method comprising: detecting whether or not a condition indicating lighting conditions in an environment of the luminaire is below a predetermined threshold; determining whether or not the battery is being charged; if the condition indicating lighting conditions being below the predetermined threshold is detected and if it is determined that the battery is being charged, detecting load flickering of the luminaire, wherein the load flickering is attributable to a load ripple through the battery, wherein the load ripple is due to the coupling of the battery with the grid charging unit; and if load flickering of the luminaire is detected, correcting the load flickering of the luminaire.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a process for producing pea protein products, in particular pea protein isolates (PPIs), PPI produced by the process and use of PPI, wherein the process utilizes lactic acid or L-Malic acid to precipitate PPI (lactic acid PPI and malic acid PPI, respectively) from a protein-rich solution derived from a pea source. The process comprises steps of a) providing a pea source, b) extracting protein from the pea source in a basic solution to produce a protein—rich solution, c) separating the remaining pea source from the protein-rich solution, and d) precipitating protein from the protein-rich solution by adding lactic acid or L-Malic acid to lower the pH, thereby producing PPI.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a process for capturing CO2 using bio-digester slurry, along with a method to improve the quality of fermented organic manure (FOM) and liquid fermented organic liquor (LFOM). The present disclosure describes the use of lignin functionalizing microbes (LFM) and H2S oxidizing microbes (SOD) to enhance the quality of the FOM and LFOM and improve the CO2 capture ability of the slurry. The CO2 and/or H2S captured manure increases their nutrient value for use in agriculture. The CO2 absorption process not only aids in reducing the amount of greenhouse gases released into the environment, but also improves the quality of FOM and LFOM. The integration of these processes results in a sustainable and efficient approach for capturing CO2 while improving the quality of organic waste material for agricultural use.
