Food Processing Operations Modeling: Design and Analysis

The second edition of Food Processing Operations Modeling focuses on novel food processing technologies of interest relevant to food safety and quality as well as new commercialized computational fluid dynamics software to model complex food processing systems. Addressing engineering principles and backed by numerical approaches, this edition features new chapters that provide in-depth coverage of high pressure processing design and analysis, pulsed electric field processing and modeling, radio frequency heating, Fouling model on heat exchangers, ozone treatment, and UV pasteurization of food materials. The text updates new information on infrared heating of biological materials as well as modeling electrical resistance heating of foods.
