This book will cover recent trends in food technology, focusing on novel processing technologies that have proven potential to replace or upgrade conventional processing methods in the food industry. Apart from the core focus on novel food processing technologies, the book opens with a strong platform on the basics of food processing and food preservation and looks at the range of unit operations involved in the food industry. Considering a holistic perspective, the book also gives an overview of recent approaches in food product development and food quality evaluation. All these topics are covered in line with changing consumer trends and global markets. To conclude, the book presents an insight into the need of the hour: sustainable food processing and the potential of novel technologies to contribute to food security.
