مهندسی و فناوری فرآیندهای غذایی (علم و فناوری غذا)

Combining scientific depth with practical usefulness, this book serves as a tool for practicing food engineers, technologists and researchers looking for the latest information on transformation and preservation processes as well as process control and plant hygiene topics. Food Process Engineering and Technology, 2nd Edition, guides the reader to the most appropriate processing option for their specific need based on the relevant physics, chemistry, biology, biochemistry and core engineering sciences. Over 30% revised with new content specifically designed to increase practical application, Berk provides the basic principles common to all food processes before moving into more detailed operations of food processing. The book allows food professionals to make the best processing decisions based on product quality/safety, cost and environmental issues, and facility and technology availability.
