The amalgamation of food technology with engineering  operations  has  given  birth  to  the  discipline  of  food  engineering.\nThe book is divided into four parts. The first part begins with a brief introduction to food technology and its historical importance and development. The second part covers the basic principles, materials and energy balance concepts that prepare a solid ground for easy comprehension of the technologies involved.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe third part, which deals with unit operations in food processing, is the core component of the book. It includes all the transport phenomena, mechanical operations, size reduction, grinding and milling. A separate chapter is devoted to microwave heating in view of its importance in food processing. Dehydration, solvent extraction, distillation, and mechanical operations have been discussed extensively. The fourth part deals with  food  industry  management,  and  the  peripheral  and  integrated  food  engineering  operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book caters to the needs of undergraduate and postgraduate students of food engineering and technology  and  food  science  and  technology.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKEY  FEATURES\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n• Provides  numerous  worked-out  examples. \n\u003cp\u003e• Explains  the  concepts  without  excessive  mathematical  expressions  and  derivations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Covers all engineering principles that are needed for a successful operation of a food processing plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Includes  an  extensive  set  of  review  questions  at  the  end  of  each  chapter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNEW  TO  THE  EDITION\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Introduces a new chapter on fermentation highlighting its benefits and applications in food processing industry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Incorporates a section on emulsification discussing machinery and equipment used in the process, challenges  and  its  applications  in  food  processing.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003cp\u003e• Revises  numerical  calculations  for  appropriateness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTARGET  AUDIENCE\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e•  B.Tech.
