Science in a Technical World is a interdisciplinary unit (small book)-based curriculum for high school (grades 9 through 12), developed by the Education Division of the American Chemical Society, with support from the National Science Foundation. The units can be used as the primary material for a tech prep course, or as a supplement to a standard basal chemistry, biology, earth science, or physics textbook. The program is also appropriate for two-year vocational/technical schools. THE PROGRAM Science in a Technical World takes a "hands-on, minds-on" approach, with students investigating an industry-based problems faced by science technicians in a typical work day. Each unit involves students in the solution of a science technology-related problem that might actually occur. The Carbonated Beverage Industry looks at the question: What can cause a can of cola to have an unusual (off-specifications) taste?

Packaging choices havechanged and there have been improvements in closure design. This book provides an overview of carbonated soft drinks productionin the early part of the twenty first century, presenting thelatest information on carbonation and filling methods. There arealso chapters on bottle design, can making, general packagingconsiderations, production and distribution. A final chapter dealswith quality assurance, and environmental and legislative issues.Detailed references provide opportunity for further reading in morespecialised areas. The book is aimed at graduates in food science,chemistry, microbiology and engineering who are considering acareer in the soft drinks industry, as well as technical staffalready employed within the industry and associated suppliers.
