Obesity also interferes with restful sleep, affects the mobility and contributes to the increasing cases of digestive disorders that ultimately shortens the life span. According to WHO, ~2.3 billion population will be overweight and ~700 million population will be obese by 2015 and ~70% of US adult population would be overweight. This growing concern of obesity can be controlled by weight loss management services, which would help the obese people to maintain the body mass index (BMI) leading to balanced life. For example, weight loss management services are provided by slimming centers, and fitness centers. Drugs & food supplements are used for maintenance of BMI.

Curing is a photochemical process in which a high-intensity electromagnetic wave is used to dry inks, coatings, or adhesives. Basically, this process involves mixing of liquid monomers and oligomers with a small portion of photo-initiators, which is then exposed to energy. The inks/coatings/adhesives then harden almost instantly. The traditional method involved conventional heat and drying methods, which relied on the principle of solvent evaporation and reduced the initial application of coatings by at least 50%, leading to generation of environmental pollutants and loss of product volume. However, the curing technology is beneficial as it use reduces waste, energy use, and pollutant emission and provides higher productivity. Currently, the two parallel competitive streams in energy curing technology are UV (Ultraviolet) and EB (Electron Beam). The curing technology is applicable across automotive, telecommunications, electronics, graphic arts, and glass & plastic decorating industries.

Environmental testing focuses on determining the amount of contaminants in the natural environment and identifying their impact on all life forms. Currently, release of large amounts of artificial and natural waste substances has a detrimental impact on the environment, leading to global warming. Maintaining the right quantities of all components in the environment is a must for a sustainable future.Increased awareness of environmental degradation, rise in initiatives that cause sustainable development, and favourable government policies drive the environmental testing market. However, the requirement of high capital investment is expected to restrict the market growth. Hence, rise in industrial activities in emerging markets presents high potential for expansion.

Ethoxyquin is an animal feed to prevent lipid peroxidation or rancidity in fats. It is used to control the generation of lipid oxidation compounds and lessen the effects of oxidized fats in animal diets. It cannot be used in human food items, but it can be carried ahead either by pet feed to farmed and poultry, which may be consumed by human beings. However, the rapid growth of human population has increased the demand for dairy, meat, sea food, and poultry products across the globe is rising need for feeds for these livestock.

Oil seeds are crops or seeds mainly grown for extraction of edible oil for households and food industrial purposes. Oil extracted from these seeds are a part of our diet and are also used in industry as raw materials to produce paints, varnishes, hydrogenated oil, soaps, perfumery, lubricants, and many more products. The residual matter, called as oil-cake is used as cattle food. Soya bean, cotton seed, sunflower, safflower, and Niger seed are the main forms of oil seeds.

Chemical enhanced oil recovery (EOR) is a method used to recover oil, which is applied to proliferate the amount of crude oil that can be extracted from oil fields. This technique is implemented in favorable geological conditions as depicted by single well or inter-well tracers and water flooding performances.

Asia-Pacific Packaged Food Market Report, published by Allied Market Research, forecasts that the market is expected to $875.3 billion by 2020, registering a CAGR of 5.6% during the period 2015-2020.
