The continuously increasing human population, has resulted in a
huge demand for processed and packaged foods. As a result of this
demand, large amounts of water, air, electricity and fuel are
consumed on a daily basis for food processing, transportation and
preservation purposes. Although not one of the most heavily
polluting, the food industry does contribute to the increase in
volume of waste produced as well as to the energy expended to do
so. For the first time, nine separate food industry categories are
thoroughly investigated in an effort to help combat this already
acute problem. The current state of environmental management
systems is described, offering comparisons of global legislation
rarely found in other resources. An extensive review of commercial
equipment, including advantages and disadvantages per employed
waste management technique, offers a unique perspective for any
academic, student, professional, and/or consultant in the food,
agriculture and environmental industries.
* Thoroughly examines the most prevalent and most polluting
industries such as Meat, Fish, Dairy, Olive Oil, Juice and Wine
industries
* Includes synoptical tables [methods employed, physicochemical or
microbiological parameters altered after treatment etc] and
comparative figures of the effectiveness of various waste
management methods
* Contains nearly 2500 of the most up-to-date references available
