Omega Canine Emulsion combines the benefits of Omega-3, Carotene, and Vitamin E for the benefit of man’s best friend. The product comes in a squeeze bottle, making dispensing the emulsion onto food easy. The product has a smoky flavour, which is liked by canines. Reports by owners claim that it

The Natural Biostimulant developed at the University of the Western Cape is a proudly South African, cost-effective, safe, natural and organic botanical fertiliser with promising commercial applications in the agriculture sector. Derived from an indigenous plant extract, the product contains a

The Rotatable Fish Drying Frame is aimed at formalising a specific fish-drying process already used by different communities in Africa. The frame allows for the drying of up to 100 kg of fresh fish at a time using the existing iteration. The key principle is that after one week of drying, the drum

The biological sand filtration system is a simple, cost-effective solution used to improve the quality of winery wastewater for reuse (e.g., for beneficial irrigation). The system can operate entirely off-grid using solar panels and gravity for energy. Microbial communities within the system degrade

Certain liquids, such as wine, are sensitive to contact with oxygen and may be degraded by oxidation, so winemakers usually take steps to limit or entirely prevent oxygen from contacting the wine. For example, inert gases may be used to displace oxygen. In reductive winemaking processes, oxygen is

The Vapour-Based Passive Multistage Solar Desalination System offers a sustainable and efficient solution for desalinating water using solar energy. The system is designed to operate off-grid, utilizing solar heat to drive the desalination process, making it ideal for remote areas where access to

This product contains beneficial microbes found in fruits and vegetables. When applied to crops, these microbes naturally improve growth, nutrient use, and crop quality. When produce is consumed raw, it also helps support digestion and gut health. It is especially well-suited for ready-to-eat fruits

The invention relates to a process for producing protein microparticles in dilute organic acid solutions, without the presence of an alcohol such as ethanol. The microparticles are formed by dissolving a cereal prolamin protein in a concentrated organic acid solution with agitation, followed by

Activated Carbon: Local Production Using Local Nuts The invention describes a novel method of producing activated carbon from locally available nut shells. The invention provides a method to carry out carbonation and physical activation simultaneously via a pyrolysis process. This process produces

Short chain fructooligosaccharides (scFOS) are prebiotics used as a food supplement to improve dietary health in humans and animals. FOS are also used in the food industry as low-calorie sweeteners and added to food products to improve their organoleptic properties. Global demand for FOS is growing

The researchers at Stellenbosch University have developed a technology for the radiometric correction of high spatial resolution imagery (aerial or UAV). The imagery is calibrated to approximate surface reflectance by fusing with concurrent and collocated satellite imagery. The technique allows the

Irrigation is an essential part of commercial agriculture. The water and energy used in typical large-scale irrigation systems can be substantial. As water becomes a scarcer resource its responsible use and conservation become imperative. The same is true of energy especially in territories where
