Record 5 2011-09-26

English

Subject field(s)
  • Industrial Tools and Equipment
  • Cheese and Dairy Products
DEF

A long, rakelike wire tool used to cut curd into cubes.

CONT

Once the gelly is sufficiently firm, the curd is sliced up by means of the "curd knife"(a tool equipped with wires spaced apart) and this provokes the separation of the curds and the lactoserum("the whey"). The duration and the speed of the decurdling process affects the size of the grain(about that of a pea). Once the slicing up process is completed, the resulting mixture will be stirred within the vat until the grain is sufficiently drained...

Record 7 2010-06-28

English

Subject field(s)
  • Food Industries
CONT

Traditionally, tempeh is a chunky cake made entirely from fermented whole soybeans. Modern tempeh is made by combining soybeans with another grain, usually rice or millet. To make tempeh, soybeans are soaked overnight and then cooked for about 30 minutes. Then, the mixture is inoculated and left to ferment for a period of 24 to 36 hours at 30 ºC. Fresh tempeh is covered with a thin white coat similar to that found on brie or camembert cheese, and the inside is streaky like blue cheese. It has a tender, chewy texture and its rich flavour is sometimes compared to that of mushrooms. Tempeh must always be cooked before it is eaten. It can be frozen after being blanched.

Of Indonesian origin.

Record 9 2007-02-07

English

Subject field(s)
  • Beverages
DEF

A whisky made of a mixture of single malt whisky and grain whisky or different single malt whiskys.

OBS

[Blended scotch] is usually, though not necessarily, of lower quality than a single malt scotch.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Boissons (Industrie de l'alimentation)
CONT

Le blended scotch est élaboré à partir d'un mélange de single malt et de single grain.

CONT

Par exemple, pour ne mentionner que les types les plus connus de whisky, on peut distinguer entre le scotch de malt, le scotch de grains, le scotch mélangé, le whisky canadien, le whisky irlandais, le bourbon et le rye, chacun ayant ses propres caractéristiques spécifiques. De plus, à l'intérieur de chacun de ces types de whisky, on peut encore établir d'autres distinctions. Ainsi, dans le cas du scotch mélangé, les professionnels font une distinction entre le scotch mélangé «de qualité supérieure» (12 ans d'âge ou plus) et le scotch mélangé «ordinaire» (moins de 12 ans d'âge).

OBS

Le terme «malt scotch» est un emprunt à l'anglais très répandu dans le domaine des boissons alcoolisées.

Record 10 2006-02-02

English

Subject field(s)
  • Spacecraft
CONT

The solid rocket fuel fills the inside of the rocket from its top to the bottom. In the middle of the rocket is a shaped clearing that provides combustion area and allows the mixture to burn evenly. This shape may be a circle or a star depending upon the type of thrust desired for launch. The rocket's ignition commences by shooting flames down its entire length to initiate the combustion evenly throughout the grain, another term for solid rocket propellant. As the fuel burns and its waste parts are ejected out the nozzle the propellant area grows. As the propellant area grows there is more propellant to burn which means that the rocket's thrust increases.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Engins spatiaux
DEF

Record 14 1983-09-09

English

Subject field(s)
  • Mineral Processing (Metallurgy)
CONT

Fluidized-bed technique. The fluidized-bed technique [for mineral concentration] has been adopted in a number of processes to increase the economic recovery of metals from ores and concentrates. In this process, the material to be treated is kept in motion in a chamber by an upward current of gas that maintains the individual particles in suspension. Through precise adjustment of the velocity of the gas to conform with the grain size and specific gravity of the materials to be treated, a floating mixture of gas and solids is generated that behaves almost like a liquid. Increasing attention has been given to studies of high-temperature reactions in fluidized-bed systems, "high-temperature" implying(...) the practical limit of fuel-combustion heating.

Key term(s)
  • fluidised-layer technique
  • fluidized-layer technique
  • fluidised-bed technique

Domaine(s)
  • Minéralurgie (Métallurgie)
