Engineering Aspects of Thermal Food Processing

Engineering Aspects of Thermal Food Processing addresses fundamental aspects of modeling, simulation, optimization, online control, and computer automation. This book presents the latest advances and ideas in optimizing quality and the required procedures in assuring safety. It provides in-depth discussion and critical analyses of several different methods used to calculate C. Botulinum inactivation during thermal processing. The text focuses on optimization including global optimization, optimal retort scheduling, and simultaneous sterilization. Additional topics include quality retention, on-line control and automation, and designing pasteurization processes. It also discusses novel approaches to the computer simulation of non-symmetrical thermal processing of odd-shaped foods.
