RESUMEN
This paper presents the analyses of the effect of fiber additives on volatile organic compounds in bread. The bread was baked from wheat flour with the addition of 3% of fruit fiber, following common procedures. After baking, volatile organic compounds contained in the control bread and breads supplemented with cranberry, apple, and chokeberry fiber were determined. The SPME/GC-MS technique was used for the identification of the odor profile, and the electronic nose Agrinose (e-nose) was used to assess the intensity of the aroma. The results of the analyses revealed the profile of volatile organic compounds in each experimental variant, which was correlated with responses of the electronic nose. The results indicate that the volatile compound profile depends on the bread additives used and influences the intensity of bread aroma. Moreover, the profile of volatile organic compounds in terms of their amount and type, as well as the intensity of their interaction with the active surface of the electrochemical sensors, was specific exclusively for the additive in each case.

This paper presents the results of the analysis of thermal issues and energy efficiency of three types of accumulators; namely stone-bed; water and phase change. Research experiments were carried out during April-October 2013 in a standard commercial semi-cylindrical high plastic tunnel with tomato cultivation of 150 m2. A stone-bed accumulator; with an area of almost 75 m2 was installed in the tunnel below ground level; while a water accumulator with a volume of 4 m3 was installed outside the tunnel. A phase change material (PCM) accumulator, with a volume of 1 m3 containing paraffin, was located inside the tunnel. The heat storage capacity of the tested accumulators and the energy efficiency of the process were determined based on the analyses of the 392 stone-bed charging and discharging cycles, the 62 water accumulator charging cycles and close to 40 PCM accumulator charging and discharging cycles. Dependencies in the form of easily measurable parameters; have been established to determine the amount of stored heat; as well as the conditions for which the effectiveness of these processes reaches the highest value. The presented analysis falls under the pro-ecological scope of replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy. As a result of the analysis; it was found that; in the case of a stone-bed; such an accumulator shows higher efficiency at lower parameters; that is, temperature difference and solar radiation intensity. In turn; a higher temperature difference and a higher value of solar radiation intensity are required for the water accumulator. The energy storage efficiency of the PCM accumulator is emphatically smaller and not comparable with either the stone-bed or the water accumulator.
