By adopting the method of the invention, the oxygen-containing compounds in the Fischer-Tropsch synthetic reaction wastewater can be effectively removed; and the total removal rate is more than 98% and the treated Fischer-Tropsch reaction wastewater can meet the quality standard of cooling water or boiler water.

The invention discloses high-oxidation-stability oil-in-water emulsion. The high-oxidation-stability oil-in-water emulsion comprises the following components in parts by weight: 20-70 parts of micronized whey protein dispersed liquid, 10-30 parts of a xanthan gum system and 10-60 parts of oil phase. The whey protein particles and the xanthan gum in the emulsion form a multilayer interface film onthe surface of the oil phase, so that the contact of oxygen, a pro-oxidant and the like with the oil phase can be isolated, the accumulation of oil drips can also be avoided, and high oxidation stability and physical stability of the emulsion can be maintained, so that the high-oxidation-stability oil-in-water emulsion can be used for protecting and transporting liposoluble sensibility bioactive components and has good application prospects.

Compounds represented by the following formula I:in which:R1 to R5 can have various meanings of which alkyl, substituted or non-substituted aryl, and m is equal to 0 or 1, X is selected from (CR6R7)n in which n=0 or 1, and CO are disclosed. These compounds are useful as anti-tumor drugs, especially with pro-oxidizing activity.

A food product which incorporates polyunsaturated fatty acids and an encapsulated pro-oxidant, said food product having a water activity of 0.75 or less. The pro-oxidants may be metal salts such as copper, manganese, iron and / or zinc salts. Sources of omega-3 fatty acids include fish oil. The present invention is directed especially to nutrition products, such as nutrition bars and soups, sweet powders and other food products, with a water activity (aw) of 0.75 or less, as well as to processes for preparing such products, wherein the products incorporate omega-3 and / or omega-6 and / or other polyunsaturated fatty acids in combination with encapsulated pro-oxidants, such as salts of copper, iron, manganese and zinc. The formulations according to the invention can be expected to have a very good shelf life, yet include polyunsaturated fatty acids which generally have a tendency to oxidize, together with normally pro-oxidant compounds in encapsulated form. Previously, it would have been expected that where pro-oxidants and omega-3 or other unsaturated fatty acids are combined in the same formulation, the fatty acids would oxidize and the shelf life of the food product would be unacceptable.
