Food Process Engineering
This book provides a global perspective of present-age frontiers in food process engineering research, innovation, and emerging trends. It provides an abundance of new information on a variety of issues and problems in food processing technology. Divided into five parts, the book presents new research on new trends and technologies in food processing, ultrasonic treatment of foods, foods for specific needs, food preservation, and food hazards and their controls.
Smart Food for Healthy, Sustainable and Resilient Food Systems
We are no longer able to provide the world population with a healthy diet and, at the same time, sustainably balance our planetary resources to ensure resilient and viable livelihoods for smallholder farmers. For the past fifty years, diets have become less nutritionally balanced, contribute significantly to climate change, and have accelerated the process of biodiversity erosion. We have reduced the number of species that are cultivated for food, and for each species, we are growing fewer varieties. While agriculture has moved towards uniformity, biodiversity is the basis of healthy and nutritious diets, and biodiversity is paramount for adapting crops to climate change. Hence, it is import...
Microbial Decontamination of Food
Food is contaminated in the production chain and is the point of concern among the consumers and industries. There is also a considerable increase in foodborne outbreaks, which possess the challenge to industry associated with the production of processed food. Various strategies are used to prevent the contamination during postharvest stage, storage and distribution. Different methods are exploited for degrading or eliminating the microbial contamination from food commodities. The conventional techniques used for decontamination demanded a considerable requirement for novel technologies, which are efficient, environmental friendly, and cost-effective. Novel technologies efficiently remove th...
Advanced Research Methods in Food Processing Technologies
This new volume presents new studies and research cases on advanced technologies for food processing and preservation to maintain and improve food quality, extend shelf-life, and provide new solutions to food processing challenges. The volume discusses cold plasma and ultrasound processing of foods, introducing new food processing technologies and applications. It also elaborates on microwave processing of foods, describing applications, potential and intermittent microwave drying of fruits. Other new research focusses on high-pressure processing, electrospinning technology in foods, encapsulation techniques, impact of freezing and thawing processes on textural properties of food products, 3D printing of foods, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in food authentication, and state-of-the-art applications of nanotechnology in food processing.
Millets
Millets are diverse small-seeded crops which are resilient to climatic stress, pests, and diseases. These can be grown in rainfed conditions with minimal agricultural inputs. These are considered nutritionally superior to other major cereals like rice, wheat, and maize as they contain a significant amount of protein, dietary fibre, and minerals. Today, millets are recognized and considered as integral components of a sustainable food system. Millets have low glycaemic index and are beneficial for diabetics. Millet protein is devoid of gluten, making them a better option than wheat for patients with gluten sensitivity. Millets: Cultivation, Processing, and Utilization covers information on ta...
Food Processing and Preservation Technology
Food Processing and Preservation Technology: Advances, Methods, and Applications confronts the challenges of food preservation by providing new research and information on the use of novel processing and preservation technologies during production, processing, and transportation in the food industry for the improvement of shelf life and the safety of foods. The book is organized in two main parts. The first section focuses on novel and nonthermal processing of food and food products. It looks at dielectric heating and ohmic heating as well as three-dimensional printing of foods and ozonization of food products. Part two delves into process interventions for food processing and preservations,...
Functionality of Plant Proteins
Functionality of Food Proteins: Mechanisms, Modifications, Methods of Assessment and Applications provides researchers and users of plant-based proteins with the latest developments on their functionality at the molecular and ingredient level, and in food applications. The book discusses the biological, chemical and physical principles behind the techno-functional and nutritional properties of proteins, existing methods of functionality assessment, and protein modification for functional enhancement. With market demand for protein ingredients, several lesser known sources are being utilized to develop new protein ingredients and products, with some intended to replace, partially or wholly, t...
