Today, we learned current battery technologies at the factory. The battery is a device that converts chemical energy into electric energy multiple times through an electrochemical oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction. This type of reaction involves the transfer of electrons from one material to another. My director challenged me by asking what the differences between the battery and cell battery. In understanding the differences between a cell and a battery, one should think of a battery as one or more of these cells connected in series, or parallel, or both, depending on the desired output voltage and capacity. Then, another professional from …

In the winery, which uses natural gravity force flow technique, the processed grapes are automatically poured into stainless steel and oak tanks with the effect of gravity power. Wine also flows to French oak barrels with the same method of gravity. Thus, since the pump is not used, the wines are not traumatized and they lose nothing from their unique delicate flavors and flavors.

Thanks to the technically superior, different types of tanks (Ganimede, horizontal, oak, etc.) available …

We had a visit to the British American Tobacco Turkey factory located in Samsun. Processed tobacco leaves arriving at the factory undergo quality control and if there are other ingredients in the brand recipe (for example flavors or expanded tobacco), it is very important to monitor the various tobacco types and blend components used, and computers are increasingly used to monitor the production process. Moisture content is also very important. If the tobacco leaf is too dry it will crumble; If it is very humid, it may deteriorate during storage. For this reason, the blended tobacco is processed with an …
