Note: This is the second poem in a three poem trilogy that I wrote between 3 to 4 am on the morning of December 18, 2018. One never knows when inspiration knocks on the door. Usually I loose the words by not getting up to write them down but this time I made the effort. The theme is more that of political or societal freedom which in our current world are quickly being eroded due to our own irresponsibility and lack of courage to stand up and say, no to those of dark determination who are now setting the course toward mankind's demise.
This poem was written in the haiku style of poetry and published for the first time on my blog today, the 19th of December 2018.

I bet on weapons Kallas wants from Israel to 'fight Russia' as the reason behind this absolute shitshow. It's an economy of war and destruction within the parochial double standard that some are displaying in "Russia is a bad empire and Eastern Europe needs defence", in which people like Ukrainians are used as the people worth saving on the expenses of the Palestinians. This isn't anti-Imperialism, this is just a camping effort to defend one Empire and not another.
The “Spanish Stonehenge” — older than both Stonehenge and the pyramids — has emerged from a shrinking reservoir. Its age suggests megalithic civilisations were thriving in Europe far earlier than we thought. Maybe we’ve had human history backwards all along.
Listen to how European leaders humiliated an entire people in the #EU.
It was a week that brought the future of #Greece and the #Eurozone to the brink. Ten years ago, on 6 July the Greek people voted against the terms of a financial bailout which included raising taxes and slashing welfare spending.
Greece owed €323bn to various countries and banks within #Europe. Its banks were closed. A quarter of the population and half of Greece’s young people were unemployed.
The morning after the vote, Euclid Tsakalotos was brought in to replace Yanis Varoufakis as finance minister. His predecessor had accused European leaders of “terrorism” in their handling of the crisis. Parachuted in to last-ditch talks with angry European leaders, Euclid Tsakalotos describes to Josephine McDermott the make-or-break 17-hour summit in Brussels.
He reveals that when Angela Merkel, the leader of Greece’s biggest lender #Germany, said she was leaving the room because she could not accept what was on the table, Donald #Tusk, president of the European Council, actually locked the door to stop her leaving and force an agreement to be reached. bbc.com/audio/play/w3ct74q4

Ready Or Not, the SWAT spiritual successor, is getting console ports. Because of this, the developers have decided to censor the ever-loving fuck out of the game so that it doesn't get an Adults Only rating. Since they only want to work on one version of the game, though, they have opted to censor the PC release as well, to the chagrin of everybody who bought the game.
They'll undoubtedly get more money doing this, but they've lost a lot of goodwill.
All they had to do was add a censorship toggle on PC. It would add some extra work for crossplay, but come on... this is lame as fuck.

View of Earth as seen by ESA project astronaut Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski inside the seven-windowed cupola, the International Space Station's "window to the world".
The European Space Agency-built Cupola is the favourite place of many astronauts on the International Space Station. It serves not only as a unique photo spot, but also for observing robotic activities of the Canadian Space Agency's robotic arm Canadarm2, arriving spacecraft and spacewalks.
Sławosz was launched to the International Space Station on the Dragon spacecraft as part of Axiom Mission 4 on 25 June 2025. The 20-day mission on board is known as Ignis. During the Ignis mission, Sławosz conducted 13 experiments proposed by Polish companies and institutions and developed in collaboration with ESA, along with three additional ESA-led experiments. These covered a broad range of areas including human research, materials science, biology, biotechnology and technology demonstrations.
The Ax-4 mission marks the second commercial human spaceflight for an ESA project astronaut. Ignis was sponsored by the Polish government and supported by ESA, the Polish Ministry of Economic Development and Technology (MRiT) and the Polish Space Agency (POLSA).

The global food processing industry generates vast quantities of organic waste, including fruit and vegetable peels, meat and bone remnants, and spent grains, among others. Traditional disposal methods, such as landfilling or incineration, present not only logistical challenges but also significant environmental risks. In response to these concerns, pyrolysis technology has emerged as an innovative and sustainable solution for managing food processing waste. By transforming waste into valuable by-products, a pyrolysis plant offers both environmental and economic benefits, establishing a more sustainable waste management system within the food processing sector.
1. Reduction of Environmental Footprint
The food processing industry is one of the largest contributors to waste generation. The disposal of organic waste, if not managed correctly, often leads to methane emissions from landfills, contributing to global warming. On the other hand, open burning of waste releases toxic gases into the atmosphere, further deteriorating air quality.
A biomass pyrolysis machine addresses these environmental concerns by providing a closed-loop system that minimizes harmful emissions. Pyrolysis occurs in the absence of oxygen, which significantly reduces the formation of harmful gases and particulate matter. As a result, food processing waste is converted into valuable by-products like biochar, syngas, and bio-oil, all of which can be utilized, further reducing the need for waste disposal in landfills or through harmful incineration processes.
2. Generation of High-Value By-Products
Pyrolysis stands out due to its ability to produce useful products from waste materials. Food processing waste, when processed in a biochar pyrolysis equipment, yields several valuable by-products that can be utilized in various industries.
Biochar: Biochar, a stable form of carbon, is one of the most significant products derived from pyrolysis. It has applications in agriculture as a soil amendment, where it improves soil fertility, water retention, and nutrient absorption. Additionally, biochar helps sequester carbon, contributing to long-term carbon storage, which is vital for mitigating climate change.
Syngas (Synthesis Gas): The pyrolysis process produces syngas, a mixture of hydrogen, methane, carbon monoxide, and other gases. These gases can be used as a fuel source for energy generation, providing a sustainable and low-emission alternative to fossil fuels. By converting food processing waste into syngas, a pyrolysis plant provides a renewable energy source that can be used to power operations or even sold back to the grid.
Bio-Oil: Another by-product of pyrolysis is bio-oil, which can be refined into biofuels or used as a chemical feedstock. Bio-oil has applications in energy generation, as well as in the production of chemicals and lubricants, offering further economic opportunities for businesses.
These by-products provide food processors with the opportunity to diversify their operations, generating additional revenue streams from waste that would otherwise have been discarded.
3. Cost-Effective Waste Management
Food processing companies are often confronted with the high costs associated with waste disposal. Traditional methods like transportation to landfills, composting, or incineration can incur substantial costs, not to mention the environmental penalties or regulatory fines associated with improper waste management.
Pyrolysis presents a more cost-effective solution. By processing food processing waste into valuable products, a pyrolysis plant can significantly reduce disposal costs while generating revenue from the sale of biochar, syngas, and bio-oil. Additionally, the pyrolysis process itself can be integrated into the company’s energy system, using the syngas produced to power the plant, further reducing operational expenses.
4. Supporting Circular Economy Principles
The concept of a circular economy emphasizes reusing resources, minimizing waste, and reducing environmental harm. Pyrolysis perfectly aligns with this model by transforming waste into valuable products that can be reused in various industries. Instead of treating food processing waste as a liability, pyrolysis enables businesses to view it as a resource, helping close the loop in the resource cycle.
By adopting pyrolysis as a part of their waste management strategy, food processing companies actively contribute to a more sustainable economy, reducing their reliance on virgin materials and minimizing their carbon footprint. This contributes to a more resource-efficient system in which waste is continuously repurposed, thus supporting environmental sustainability.
5. Reduction of Waste Volume
Food processing waste, when left untreated, can occupy large amounts of space in landfills, contributing to the growing issue of landfill overflow. Pyrolysis reduces the volume of waste by converting it into solid, liquid, and gaseous products. The biochar by-product, in particular, is a stable material that occupies much less space than the original organic waste. This not only alleviates landfill pressures but also decreases the need for land disposal, providing both environmental and logistical advantages.
Moreover, by reducing waste volume, pyrolysis plants free up valuable space in food processing facilities, allowing for better use of available resources and enabling companies to manage waste in a more efficient manner.
6. Flexibility in Feedstock Utilization
Pyrolysis offers considerable flexibility when it comes to feedstock options. In the case of food processing waste, a pyrolysis plant can handle a wide variety of materials, including agricultural residues, food scraps, and even packaging waste. This versatility ensures that the plant can be adapted to suit the specific needs of the food processing industry, making it an attractive solution for businesses of all sizes.
Additionally, pyrolysis technology can be further optimized to handle various waste materials beyond food processing, such as plastic, rubber, or textiles, expanding the scope of its applicability and increasing the potential for waste recycling in multiple industries.
7. Meeting Regulatory and Sustainability Standards
As governments and regulatory bodies around the world increasingly implement stringent waste disposal and environmental regulations, food processing companies face mounting pressure to adopt more sustainable practices. Pyrolysis offers an environmentally compliant alternative to traditional waste disposal methods, helping businesses meet regulatory requirements while enhancing their sustainability credentials.
By adopting pyrolysis as part of their waste management strategy, companies can reduce their environmental impact, cut operational costs, and position themselves as leaders in sustainable practices, improving their reputation and brand value in the marketplace.
Enabling a Sustainable Future in Food Processing Waste Management
Pyrolysis offers an innovative solution to the growing challenges of food processing waste. By converting waste into valuable by-products like biochar, syngas, and bio-oil, a pyrolysis plant not only provides an efficient and sustainable waste disposal method but also creates new revenue streams for businesses. With the added benefits of reducing waste volume, supporting the circular economy, and aligning with environmental regulations, pyrolysis presents a powerful tool for food processors looking to improve their environmental footprint while optimizing waste management operations.

Industrial heat exchanger plays a critical role in maintaining energy efficiency and process performance across various sectors, including chemical processing, oil and gas, food manufacturing, and power generation. As energy costs rise and sustainability becomes a global imperative, optimizing these systems for maximum thermal efficiency is not only economically smart but also environmentally responsible.
At the core of heat exchanger efficiency is the ability to maximize heat transfer while minimizing losses. This begins with appropriate equipment selection. Choosing the right type of heat exchanger—be it shell-and-tube, plate, finned tube, or spiral—depends on factors like temperature range, pressure limits, fluid characteristics, and maintenance requirements.
Proper sizing is equally important. Oversized units may waste capital and operating expenses, while undersized ones can create bottlenecks and limit throughput. Engineers should perform detailed thermal and hydraulic calculations during the design phase, considering fouling factors and expected operational variations.
Material selection also influences performance. For instance, high thermal conductivity metals such as copper or aluminum can improve heat transfer, while corrosion-resistant alloys ensure long-term durability in aggressive environments.
Another crucial factor is flow arrangement. Counterflow configurations generally offer superior thermal performance compared to parallel flow or crossflow designs, as they allow greater temperature differentials. Optimizing flow paths and ensuring uniform distribution of fluids help avoid hot or cold spots and improve overall effectiveness.
Regular maintenance is vital to sustaining thermal efficiency. Fouling—caused by scale, sludge, or biological growth—can significantly degrade performance over time. Implementing cleaning protocols, either mechanically or chemically, and integrating monitoring systems to detect performance drops early can prevent costly downtime.
Advances in digitalization and automation have introduced new ways to optimize heat exchanger operations. Smart sensors, data analytics, and control algorithms can monitor real-time conditions and adjust operations dynamically to maintain peak efficiency. Digital twin models and predictive maintenance strategies allow facilities to simulate performance, anticipate failures, and optimize cleaning schedules.
Incorporating energy recovery systems, like economizers or heat recovery steam generators, can further increase thermal efficiency by capturing waste heat and reusing it elsewhere in the process.
Ultimately, achieving maximum thermal efficiency in industrial heat exchangers involves a balance of smart design, material science, proactive maintenance, and the integration of modern technologies. Investing in optimization strategies not only reduces operational costs but also supports sustainability goals and regulatory compliance.
