ENGINEERING INTERVENTIONS IN AGRICULTURAL PROCESSING
Engineering Interventions in Agricultural Processing is a timely book covering the latest technologies in agricultural process engineering. This vital area of agricultural engineering has to address a whole range of postproduction challenges throughout the world. Technological innovation has enabled crop production to achieve phenomenal growth, and global agricultural and food processing technologies are demanded at a faster rate than ever before. This book covers the important novel technologies that are likely to occupy the center stage of food processing in the near future. This book is organized in three parts. In Part 1, an attempt has been made to cover the latest developments in food manufacturing and processing such as non-thermal processing, Ohmic heating of meat products, fermentation of dairy products, machine vision based automation technologies and nanotechnology. A comprehensive overview of clean and economic alternative technologies has also been attempted in Part 2. Processing of medicinal plants and herbs is also gaining popularity due to the perceived health benefits. A brief coverage of potential health benefits of tea and lemon grass has also been made in Part 3. This book has been edited by Dr. Megh Raj Goyal, a renowned agricultural engineer with many years of field experience in all branches of agricultural engineering. I have acquaintance with Dr. Goyal for more than 30 years. He is known for his excellence, hard work and dedication in his profession. Also joining him is Deepak Kumar Verma as Coeditor, who is a budding engineer. This book will be handy tool for students, postgraduate teachers and researchers in the area of agricultural processing.
