Integrated processing technologies for food and agricultural by-products / edited by Zhongli Pan, Ruihong Zhang, Steven Zicari.
Contributor(s): Pan, Zhongli [editor.] | Zhang, Ruihong [editor.] | Zicari, Steven [editor.].
Material type: BookPublisher: London, United Kingdom ; San Diego, CA : Academic Press, [2019]Description: x, 444 pages ; 24 cm.ISBN: 0128141387; 9780128141380.Subject(s): Food industry and trade -- By-products | Food processing plants -- Equipment and supplies | Food industry and trade -- By-products | Food processing plants -- Equipment and suppliesSummary: Feeding our globally expanding population is one of the most critical challenges of our time and improving food and agricultural production efficiencies is a key factor in solving this problem. Currently, one-third of food produced for humans is wasted, and for every pound of food produced, roughly an equal amount of nonfood by-product is also generated, creating a significant environmental impact. In Integrated Processing Technologies for Food and Agricultural By-Products experts from around the world present latest developments, recognizing that while some by-products have found use as animal feed or are combusted for energy, new technologies which integrate conversion of production and processing by-products into higher-value food or nonfood products, nutraceuticals, chemicals, and energy resources will be a critical part of the transition to a more sustainable food system. Organized by agricultural crop, and focusing on those crops with maximum economic impact, each chapter describes technologies for value-added processing of by-products which can be integrated into current food production systems. Integrated Processing Technologies for Food and Agricultural By-Products is a valuable resource for industry professionals, academics, and policy-makers alike.Item type | Current location | Call number | Copy number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
