Global food security is a challenging issue. Meeting the food and
nutritional requirements of the world has become an issue for
national policymakers and is of public concern. There is a need to
enhance agricultural production, as well as, to reduce postharvest
loss, improve the quality of processed products, and add value to
products to make more quality food available. Agro-product
processing technology plays a major role to reduce post-harvest
losses, improve the quality of processed products, and add value to
the products. It also generates employment and ultimately
contributes to food security. Features: Covers a wide spectrum of
agro-product processing technology Explains the principles and
practices of agro-product processing technology with many worked
examples to quickly teach the basic principles through examples
Contains examples from different operations on current problems to
show the wide applications of the principles of agro-product
technology Includes process control and emerging technologies in
agro-product processing such as energy and exergy analysis, neural
network modeling, and CFD modeling This book deals with physical
and thermal properties, cleaning and sorting, drying and storage,
parboiling and milling, by-product utilization, heating and
cooling, refrigerated cooling, and cold storage. The most unique
feature of this book is the machine vision for grading fruits,
process control and materials handling, and emerging technologies
such as neural network, finite element, CFD, and genetic algorithm.
