Nanotechnology Horizons in Food Process Engineering
Although nanotechnology has revolutionized fields such as medicine, genetics, biology, bioengineering, mechanics, and chemistry, its increasing application in the food industry is relatively recent in comparison. Nanotechnology in the food industry is now being explored for creating new flavors, extending food shelf life, and improving food protection and nutritional value, as well as for intelligent nutrient delivery systems, “smart” foods, contaminant detection nanodevices and nanosensors, advanced food processing, antimicrobial chemicals, encapsulation, and green nanomaterials. This new three-volume set addresses a multitude of topical issues and new developments in the field. Volume ...
Plant-Based Bioactive Compounds and Food Ingredients
This new book discusses plant-derived bioactive compounds, covering their sources, biological effects, health benefits, and potential prevention and treatment properties for multifactorial diseases. It first describes in detail how encapsulation methods and plant-based materials may be used in a variety of ways, covering the concepts, advantages, and techniques for encapsulating bioactives based on cereals, spices, and coffee. The volume also looks at the functional aspects of plant-based foods and nutraceutical-based functional food design. The role of functional foods in food safety and industrial food safety issues and techniques for monitoring food quality and safety are also addressed.
Novel and Alternative Methods in Food Processing
This new volume explores emerging and advanced techniques in the food processing sector. Novel food processing methods such as ultrasound processing, microwave heating, advanced drying methods, and nonthermal technologies are discussed in detail. The volume also covers the application of irradiation and encapsulation methods, microbial valorizing, and other novel food processing and preservation methods. Mathematical modeling concepts and case studies are also included to illustrate applications of modeling techniques in food processing. The volume promotes the understanding of the thermodynamics of food polymers, structural design principles, structural hierarchy, and the steps involved in food structuring and structure measurement techniques.
Advances in Food Process Engineering
This new volume highlights a selection of novel applications for food processing, food preservation, and food decontamination methods. It discusses the principles, benefits, and techniques used and presents recent developments and applications of ultrasonication. It explores supercritical fluid extraction and supercritical fluid chromatography, extrusion technology, advanced drying and dehydration technologies, and encapsulation methods as important tools in the processing of food. It addresses the basic membrane processing technologies along with their advantages and disadvantages. The volume presents the application and use of mathematical models for measuring and regulating fermentation procedures. It also provides an understanding of how the hydration kinetics of grains can help in optimization and scaling of processes on a large industrial scale. Topics on decontamination methods for foods are included, such as an overview of concepts, basic principles, potential applications, and prospects and limitations of cold plasma technology and irradiation in the food processing sector.
Technologies in Food Processing
With the unprecedented increase in the world’s population, the need for different foodprocessing techniques becomes extremely important. And with the increase in awareness of and demand for food quality, processed products with improved quality and better taste that are safe are also important aspects that need to be addressed. In this volume, experts examine the use of different technologies for food processing. They look at technology with ways to preserve nutrients, eliminate anti-nutrients and toxins, add vitamins and minerals, reduce waste, and increase productivity. Topics include, among others: • applications of ohmic heating • cold plasma in food processing • the role of biotechnology in the production of fermented foods and beverages • the use of modification of food proteins using gamma irradiation • edible coatings to restrain migration of moisture, oxygen, and carbon dioxide • natural colorants, as opposed to synthetic coloring, which may have toxic effects • hurdle technology in the food industry • the unrecognized potential of agro-industrial waste
