With contributions from a broad range of leading professors and
scientists, this volume focuses on new areas of processing
technologies in foods and plants to help meet the increasing food
demand of the rapidly growing populations of the world. The first
section of the book is devoted to emerging entrepreneurship and
employment opportunities for rural peoples in food and agricultural
processing, specifically beekeeping technology and honey
processing; herbal formulations for treatment of dental diseases;
and engineering interventions for the extraction of essential oils
from plants. Part 2 contains three chapters that discuss
technological interventions in foods and plants for human health
benefits, looking particularly at coffee, tea, and green leaf
vegetable processing technology. The volume goes to look at several
management strategies in agricultural engineering, with a chapter
on production technology of ethanol from various sources and its
potential applications in various industries, including chemical,
food, pharmaceutical as well as biofuel. Food grain storage
structures are addressed as well, focusing on minimizing losses
from microbial pests as well as insect pests during grain storage
by utilizing different efficient storage structures The volume
provides a valuable resource for students, instructors, and
researchers of foods and plants processing technology. In addition,
