Alternative Methods of Producing Iodized Salt
Abstract
Due to the high incidence of iodine deficiency diseases (IDD) in the Philippines, iodized salt has become quite popular on the market. The aim of this research project is to discover different methods of making cheap and accessible iodized salt. Different gadgets were designed to mix the salt and potassium iodate (KIO3) adequately. The iodometric titration method was used to test for the iodine content of the manufactured salt. To prove the efficiency and consistency of the gadget, the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) test was performed. It has been shown that the iodine has been evenly distributed at 100 ppm, which is the standard amount. Thus, satisfactory results have been obtained. However, ways to improve the appearance and stability of the salt under storage may still be pursued.
Introduction
Iodine deficiency diseases (IDD) are very common in the Philippines, especially in the mountainous regions and in regions located in inland areas without direct access to the sea. In 1987, about 3.5 percent of the population was affected with IDD, according to the goiter prevalence survey done by Food and Nutrition Research Institute (FNRI).

Alternative Methods of Producing Iodized Salt
It is most likely to refer to Hardness Vickers, a method amongst 4 main methods for determining the surface hardness of a material. The four main methods are Vickers, Brinell, Shore and Rockwell that are differentiated by a number of factors including the size, and shape of the penetrator used, the load applied to the penetrator and the reading method. The different methods also often have different sub-scales.
Many organic farms adopt alternative methods for weed control. Methods can include the use of Goats, mulch, coverage of the soil with plants that you like, thus depriving weeds of space for growth. You can also plant multiple plants at different heights to block out weeds such as corn, beans and squash in the same plot of land.
-Carving: The sculptor starts with a block of material, and chips any un-needed parts of this material to create an object. -Casting: In this process the sculptor starts by making a mold, and pours a melted metal onto the material. -Modeling: Building up a shape...DUH!:) -Assembling: The sculptor constructs the object. Thanks!!
Two methods to tell real gold from fools gold are:Rub the piece of gold against a piece of unglazed ceramic material. If it is real, it will leave a golden mark while fools gold will leave a black mark.Apply nitric acid to the gold. If it dissolves, then it is obviously fake, as real gold cannot be dissolved in nitric acid.

There are various effects on the environment:hydro-electric dams flood large patches of river, often removing fertile land and even towns and villages. They may alter the spawning habitat for fish.tidal barrages may affect fish movements, and may cause a silt buildup.wind farms are producing complaints from neighbours for their background noise.all alternative, that is, renewable methods of producing electricity mean that less carbon dioxide is put into the atmosphere from the burning of fossil fuels.
