Sustainable Food Production

The first section of the book covers sustainable food production. This section discusses the challenges facing the global food system, such as climate change, population growth, and land degradation. It also presents innovative food engineering approaches to address these challenges, such as precision agriculture, vertical farming, and insect farming.

Food Safety

The second section of the book focuses on food safety. This section discusses the importance of food safety and the various hazards that can contaminate food. It also presents food engineering approaches to prevent and control foodborne illnesses, such as thermal processing, non-thermal processing, and food packaging.

Food Processing

The third section of the book covers food processing. This section discusses the different food processing techniques that are used to preserve and improve the quality of food. It also presents food engineering approaches to optimize food processing operations, such as computer-aided design, automation, and process control.

Food Packaging

The fourth section of the book focuses on food packaging. This section discusses the importance of food packaging and the different types of food packaging materials that are available. It also presents food engineering approaches to design and develop innovative food packaging solutions, such as active packaging, intelligent packaging, and sustainable packaging.

The global food crisis is a challenge that requires a concerted effort from all sectors of society. Food engineering plays a vital role in addressing this crisis by providing innovative solutions to sustainable food production, food safety, food processing, and food packaging. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the latest food engineering approaches to address the global food crisis. It is an invaluable resource for food engineers, food scientists, and anyone who is interested in finding solutions to this critical global problem.
