“…Thus, the static magnetic field resulted in the performance of more work in comparison to the work performed in the absence of the magnetic field impact (Bolton, 1982;Feynman et al, 1974). After the experiment, the examined systems were in states other than the states they were in before the work was done, as determined by changes in the weight of the samples and the saturated salt solutions (Ocieczek, 2013;Ocieczek et al, 2015;Ocieczek and Otremba, 2019).…”

“…The final step of the research consisted of a comparison of the sorption range in the control conditions and when stimulated with a static magnetic field. Differences in the equilibrium state were determined by comparing the water content in the examined samples after eight days of storage, which was assumed as a satisfactory period for reaching a state of dynamic equilibrium by this system (Ocieczek et al, 2015). A statistical evaluation of the differences demonstrated that the range of adsorption, expressed as an increase in the weight of the samples after eight days of storage, was higher in the magnetic field condition (tGC/GF/NaCl = 14.0608; tSC/SF/NaCl = 12.311; t0,001 = 8.61).…”

“…The range of the sorption process is reflected in the static description of this phenomenon, namely, the sorption isotherm (Figura and Teixeira, 2007;Gondek and Lewicki, 2007;Ocieczek et al, 2015). However, each point at the sorption isotherm is reached as a result of a dynamic process with different specificity, related to more or less complex mechanisms, which lead to achieving the status of dynamic equilibrium (Huespe et al, 2017).…”

“…In this experiment, the time required to reach the state of dynamic equilibrium was assumed based on the research results reported by Ocieczek et al (2015). This time was extended, assuming that the rate of reaching dynamic equilibrium may be different, depending on the properties of the sorbents used in the experiment.…”

This paper presents one of the aspects of a wide range of challenges related to space exploration. The main factor making it possible for humans to engage in space exploration is the provision of a basic element of existence, which is stable quality food. The starting point for the conducted research was the assumption that surface phenomena, involving water and determining food stability, can occur with different intensities under extra-terrestrial conditions. The results of this study describe the effect of the 10 mT static magnetic field on the process of water vapor particle adsorption and desorption on the surface of organic samples. The research material included powders with hygroscopic properties: gelatin (protein) and starch (carbohydrates). The research included a comparison of the direction, dynamics, and range of water vapor sorption in control conditions in a homogenous, static magnetic field. The research involved the use of desiccators with aqueous saturated solutions of NaOH and NaCl, and a static magnetic field generator. The obtained results indicate that magnetic field has an effect on the course of sorption on organic samples, and it can determine food stability during storage. The results of this work also indicate that there is the potential for reducing the costs of food preservation by drying it in the presence of a magnetic field; the study introduces innovative solutions in the construction of cereal silos, which is part of the concept of sustainable development.

“…Surface phenomena affect both the kinetics and intensity (kinetics + range) of many physical, physicochemical, chemical, biochemical, and microbiological processes. These, in turn, determine the storage stability of food (Rahman 2006, Ocieczek et al 2015. One natural and commonly occurring phenomenon is the drying of biological matter, the essence of which is water desorption from its surface to the environment.…”

A b s t r a c t. In this work we describe the kinetics and the extent of water desorption from the surface of natural organic particles under conditions of a magnetic field, with magnetic induction exceeding a thousand times the induction of a geomagnetic field. The scope of the present study included a comparative analysis of the kinetics and the extent of water vapour desorption under natural conditions and in an artificially-created magnetic field. The research material were potato starch particles that were characterized in terms of grain size. The results of the study showed that the impact of a strong magnetic field significantly affects both the kinetics of the process of water vapour desorption as well as its extent. Regardless of the test temperature, the magnetic field effect increased the kinetics and extent of the phenomenon under study. Starch particles dehydrated more rapidly and deeper under the influence of a strong magnetic field. This fact enables us to state that under conditions different than those occurring on the Earth's surface, the storage stability of organic particles will be significantly different from those observed in Earthlike conditions. This, in turn, may contribute to a radical change in the durability of food found in such conditions. The result of this experiment also raises hopes for the use of magnetic fields to reduce the costs associated with energy-intensive drainage processes. This may be of particular importance when dewatering substances sensitive to high temperatures. The results achieved also point to the feasibility of increasing the functional effectiveness of the facilities used for the dehydration of products sensitive to high temperatures.K e y w o r d s: magnetic field, increase in desorption kinetics, increase in the extent of desorption, food durability in extraterrestrial conditions * Work conducted from funds of the Gdynia Maritime University for scientific activity WPiT/2019/PZ/05
