Dispensed drinks

With certain exceptions the same formulation can be used for a dispensed drink as is used when it is bottled or canned. The key differences are ... 

Portable containers used to dispense drinking water shall be capable of being tightly closed, and equipped with a tap. Water shall not be dipped from containers. 

The main utihty of saccharin had been in beverages and as a table-top sweetener. Upon the approval of aspartame for carbonated beverages in 1983, aspartame displaced saccharin in most caimed and bottied soft drinks. However, saccharin is stiU used, usually blended with aspartame, in carbonated soft drinks dispensed from soda fountains. 

Elavored carbonated beverages, or soft drinks, were developed by apothecaries and chemists in the early nineteenth century by the addition of flavored symps to fountain-dispensed carbonated water. The introduction of proprietary flavors began in the late 1880s. Charles H. Hires introduced his root beer extract in 1876, Vemors s Ginger Ale was marketed by James Vernor in 1880, R. S. La2enby perfected the formula for Dr. Pepper in 1885, and John S. Pemberton developed the formula for Coca-Cola in 1886. Brad s Drink was introduced in 1896 and was later renamed Pepsi-Cola in 1898.

Ecstasy most commonly comes in the form of a small pill (Figure 3.2). These pills come in a large variety of shapes and colors with various designs imprinted on them. A typical Ecstasy pill costs between 10 and 25 and contains 75-150 milligrams of MDMA. Since these pills look so much like candy, they are often concealed by mixing them into a bag of M Ms or Skittles , or even placing the pills inside a Pez dispenser. The pills are usually chewed or taken with a drink. In rarer instances, the pills are crushed into a powder and snorted or injected intravenously, or the pills are inserted into the rectum ( shafting ).

Using the resulting basic crude infusion directly or further concentrating it under reduced pressure to make a soft extract, which in turn can be dried to a powdered extract. For the majority of functional drinks the infusion is the preferred form of extract as it is the easiest to dispense and mix into the end product. Figure 12.3 shows a typical infusion vessel. 

Dispensing systems are used in licensed and catering outlets as a convenient, rapid and economical way of serving ready-chilled drinks without the need to handle bottles or cans. 

The cooler is connected to the dispense head by a python . This is an insulated bundle of tubes, one feed tube for each syrup and a loop line of chilled carbonated water, continuously circulating from the cooler, round the dispense head and back to the cooler via the carbonator. The circulation is powered by a lightweight plastic pump when water is not being drawn off and it is carried out to ensure that cold drink can be delivered instantly, even when the dispense head is at a considerable distance from the cooler. 

Figure 13.5 shows the much simpler equipment needed for pre-mix dispensing. Top pressure is applied from a carbon dioxide cylinder to a pre-mix tank, factory filled with carbonated drink. When the dispense valve is opened the pressure delivers product from the base of the tank via die dip tube through die cooler to the valve. Product in the python feed to the valve is kept cold by the pumped circulation of chilled water from die cooler bath. 

A rigorous hygiene programme must be operated at the outlet with daily cleaning of the dispensing valves and drip trays, and of the disconnects when syrup containers are changed. Periodic sanitation of syrup lines is required. This must be done more often when fruit drinks or juices are dispensed. 

Modern systems use BiB packaging for syrups. A double bag is used the inner bag is blended polymers (for example LDPE and EVA) and the outer protective bag is a laminate with an inner layer of metallised polyester sandwiched between LDPE. The bags are sealed with a coupling valve designed to connect only to the drink manufacturer s dispensing equipment and after filling are dropped into cardboard outer boxes. 

Elements [12] to [14] of the prescription include refill information, waiver of the requirement for childproof containers, and additional labeling instructions (eg, warnings such as "may cause drowsiness," "do not drink alcohol"). Pharmacists put the name of the medication on the label unless directed otherwise by the prescriber, and some medications have the name of the drug stamped or imprinted on the tablet or capsule. Pharmacists must place the expiration date for the drug on the label. If the patient or prescriber does not request waiver of childproof containers, the pharmacist or dispenser must place the medication in such a container. Pharmacists may not refill a prescription medication without authorization from the prescriber. Prescribes may grant authorization to renew prescriptions at the time of writing the prescription or over the telephone. Elements [15] to [17] are the prescriber s signature and other identification data. 

Fuel boxes can be distributed like soft drinks to multiple distribution channels, even dispensing machines. Consumers can get their fuel anywhere and any time. By 2025, one-quarter of the industrialized vehicle fleet uses fuel cells, which also account for half of new sales. Renewables start out slowly but pick up speed after 2025. Some one billion metric tons of co2 are sequestered in 2025, and, after 2025, hydrogen is widely produced from coal, oil and gas fields, with carbon dioxide extracted and sequestered cheaply at the source. Also, large-scale renewable and nuclear energy schemes to produce hydrogen by electrolysis become attractive by 2030. ... 

Apack s Canadian subsidiary is promoting use of its composite in hot- and cold-drink disposable cups to replace EPS. Apack Canada s cups are foamed to 0.2 g/cc density, reportedly providing better insulation than paper cups. A co-polyester coating prevents moisture penetration, permits quality printing, and provides enough insulation (in hot cups) to dispense with costly paper sleeves. The sprayed-on coating uses a blend of an Eastman co-polyester and a second biodegradable resin to get a balanced viscosity. 

In a contained casualty setting, children with inhalation anthrax can receive intravenous antibiotics in a mass casualty setting and as postexposure prophylaxis, children can receive oral antibiotics (Inglesby et al., 2002). Doxycycline is dispensed in a tablet that children may not be able to swallow however, it can be ground and mixed with food or drink to make it palatable. Palatable foods and drinks for mixing doxycycline include chocolate pudding, chocolate milk, low-fat chocolate milk, simple syrup with sour apple flavor. 

Automatic soft drink dispensing machines mix a syrup with carbonated water. In the following experiment caffeine is extracted from concentrated cola syrup. 

If you mix exactly 20 cm3 of alcohol with exactly 20 cm3 of water, the total volume of the mixture is less than 40 cm3, why What implication does this have if you buy a whisky and soda or gin and tonic Is it better to have the drinks dispensed in separate glasses or to have them mixed first ...
