The subject of sterilization of food in cans has been studied both experimentally and theoretically, but limited work has been undertaken to study the sterilization of food in pouches. This book examines the interaction between fluid mechanics, heat transfer and microbial inactivation during sterilization of food in pouches. Such interaction is complex and if ignored would lead to incorrect information not only on food sterility but also on food quality.
Written by international experts from industry, research centers, and academia, Mathematical Modeling of Food Processing discusses the physical and mathematical analysis of transport phenomena associated with food processing. The models presented describe many of the important physical and biological transformations that occur in food during processing. After introducing the fundamentals of heat, mass, and momentum transfer as well as computational fluid dynamics (CFD), the book focuses on specialized topics in food processing. It covers thermal, low temperature, non-thermal, and non-conventional thermal processing, along with the analysis of biological and enzyme reactors. The book also explores the use of artificial neural networks, exergy analysis, process control, and cleaning-in-place (CIP) systems in industry. With the availability of high speed computers and advances in computational techniques, the application of mathematical modeling in food science and engineering is growing. This comprehensive volume provides up-to-date, wide-ranging material on the mathematical analysis of transport phenomena in food.

A global trend towards sustainable industry has highlighted a need to source energy and chemicals from renewable feed stocks. A move to farming short-rotation lignocellulosic biomass is one solution to the feed stock problem. However, it is also critical to use a fractionation technology that is appropriate to the biomass type and location. This text details doctoral research on the ethanol organosolv process for fractionation of short-rotation willow. The work is presented in three stages. First, the kinetics of delignification is studied with regard to the important parameters. The effect of prehydrolysis on subsequent organosolv pulping is revealed. Secondly, the easy recovery of organosolv lignin is illustrated with a novel application of flotation. The hydrophobic nature of organosolv lignin allows easy recovery by simultaneous precipitation and dissolved air flotation. Finally, the utility of organosolv lignin is verified with direct replacement of phenol in the manufacture of phenol formaldehyde resin. This text will be of interest to process engineers studying lignocellulosic fractionation and those in the field of lignin product development.
