| Summary |
Computational modeling is an important tool for understanding and improving food processing and manufacturing. |
|
It is used for many different purposes, including process design and process optimization. |
|
However, modeling goes beyond the process and can include applications to understand and optimize food storage and the food supply chain, and to perform a life cycle analysis. |
|
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the various applications of modeling in conventional food processing. |
|
The needs of industry, current practices, and state-of-the-art technologies are examined, and case studies are provided. |
|
Part One provides an introduction to the topic, with a particular focus on modeling and simulation strategies in food processing operations. |
|
Part Two reviews the modeling of various food processes involving heating and cooling. |
|
These processes include: thermal inactivation; sterilization and pasteurization; drying; baking; frying; and chilled and frozen food processing, storage and display. |
|
Part Three examines the modeling of multiphase unit operations such as membrane separation, extrusion processes and food digestion, and reviews models used to optimize food distribution. |
