Biotechnology has immense potential for resolving environmental
problems and augmenting food production. Particularly, it offers
solutions for converting solid wastes into value-added items. In
food processing industries that generate voluminous by-products and
wastes, valorization can help offset growing environmental problems
and facilitate the sustainable use of available natural resources.
Valorization of Food Processing By-Products describes the potential
of this relatively new concept in the field of industrial residues
management. The debut book in CRC Press's new Fermented Foods and
Beverages Series, this volume explores the current state of the art
in food processing by-products with respect to their generation,
methods of disposal, and problems faced in terms of waste and
regulation. It reviews the basic fundamental principles of waste
recycling, including process engineering economics and the
microbiology and biochemical and nutritional aspects of food
processing. It discusses fermentation techniques available for
valorization of food processing by-products, enzyme technologies,
and analytical techniques and instrumentation. Individual chapters
examine the by-products of plant-based and animal-based food
industries. The book also delves into socioeconomic considerations
and environmental concerns related to food processing by-products.
It surveys research gaps and areas ripe for further inquiry as well
as future trends in the field. An essential reference for
researchers and practitioners in the food science and food
technology industry, this volume is also poised to inspire those
who wish to take on valorization of food by-products as a
professional endeavor. A contribution toward sustainability,
valorization makes maximum use of agricultural produce while
employing low-energy and cost-effective processes.
