Book excerpt: Food properties, whether they concern the physical, thermodynamic, chemical, nutritional or sensory characteristics of foods, play an important role in food processing. In our quest to gain a mechanistic understanding of changes occurring during food processing, the knowledge of food properties is essential. Quantitative information on the food properties is necessary in the design and operation of food processing equipment. Foods, because of their biological nature and variability, vary in the magnitude of their properties. The variation in properties offer a challenge both in their measurement and use in the food processing applications. Often a high level of precision in measurement of properties is not possible as the measurement method may itself cause changes to the product, resulting in a variation in the obtained values. Recognizing the difficulties in measurement of food properties, and the lack of completeness of such information, several research programs have been in existence during the last two decades. In Europe, a multinational effort has been underway since 1978. The first project supported by COST (European Cooperation in the Field of Scientific and Technical Research), was titled COST 90 "The Effect of Processing on the Physical Properties of Foodstuffs". This and another project COST 90bis have considerably added to our knowledge of measurement methods and data on a number of physical properties. Two publications that summarize the work conducted under 1 2 these projects are Physical Properties of Foods and Physical Properties of Foods .

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ten years have passed since this reference’s last edition – making Engineering Properties of Foods, Third Edition the must-have resource for those interested in food properties and their variations. Defined are food properties and the necessary theoretical background for each. Also evaluated is the usefulness of each property in the design and operation of important food processing equipment. Of particular importance is that this latest edition offers seven new chapters – many of which introduce information on groundbreaking new properties. These chapters, along with the inclusion of two revised chapters from previous editions, result in a text that offers nine out of sixteen chapters of new material. This long-awaited third edition concentrates on a clear, comprehensive explanation of properties and their variations supplemented by abundant, representative information. By providing data in such a succinct and cogent manner, this comprehensive reference allows you to fully immerse in its depth and breadth of scope, while fully holding interest in the text.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confectionery and chocolate manufacture has been dominated by large-scale industrial processing for several decades. It is often the case though, that a trial and error approach is applied to the development of new products and processes, rather than verified scientific principles. Confectionery and Chocolate Engineering: Principles and Applications, Second edition, adds to information presented in the first edition on essential topics such as food safety, quality assurance, sweets for special nutritional purposes, artizan chocolate, and confectioneries. In addition, information is provided on the fading memory of viscoelastic fluids, which are briefly discussed in terms of fractional calculus, and gelation as a second order phase transition. Chemical operations such as inversion, caramelization, and the Maillard reaction, as well as the complex operations including conching, drying, frying, baking, and roasting used in confectionery manufacture are also described. This book provides food engineers, scientists, technologists and students in research, industry, and food and chemical engineering-related courses with a scientific, theoretical description and analysis of confectionery manufacturing, opening up new possibilities for process and product improvement, relating to increased efficiency of operations, the use of new materials, and new applications for traditional raw materials.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Preface We are pleased to present the fourth edition of Engineering Properties of Foods. During the last few years, food structure/micro-structure has remained a subject of research interest. Furthermore, significant developments have taken place in the area of high-pressure processing (HPP), and the process has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for pasteurization of food. Kinetic data related to HPP play a crucial role for validating the pressure-assisted pasteurization. On the basis of these developments, three new chapters: "Microstructural Properties of Foods," "Glass Transition in Foods," and "Kinetics and Process Design for High-Pressure Processing" have been added in the fourth edition. Most of the existing chapters were revised to include recent developments in each subject. The chapter on colorimetric properties of food was removed from the earlier edition. Data on physical, chemical, and biological properties have been presented in the book to illustrate their relevance and practical importance. We have added Dr. Jasim Ahmed as a coeditor to help with this rather large undertaking. In looking for experts on topics, we have also made an effort to expand the international participation of authors. We have made a special effort to follow a consistent format for the chapters so that readers can follow each chapter easily. Thus, each chapter includes an introduction, property definition, measurement procedure, modeling, representative data compilation, and applications"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Food Materials Science and Engineering covers a comprehensive range of topics in relation to food materials, their properties and characterisation techniques, thus offering a new approach to understanding food production and quality control. The opening chapter will define the scope and application of food materials science, explaining the relationship between raw material structure and processing and quality in the final product. Subsequent chapters will examine the structure of food materials and how they relate to quality, sensory perception, processing attributes and nutrient delivery. The authors also address applications of nanotechnology to food and packaging science. Methods of manufacturing food systems with improved shelf-life and quality attributes will be highlighted in the book.
