Packaging Operations in the Food Industry

Packaging Operations in the Food Industry: Unit Operations and Processing Equipment in the Food Industry explains the processing operations and equipment necessary for packaging of different food products including conventional and modern packaging techniques. These processes and unit operations are very important in the manufacture of various food products. Divided in four sections, “Principles of packaging “, “Different stages of packaging”, “Different packaging operations”, and “Novel packaging processes”, all chapters emphasize basic texts relating to experimental, theoretical, computational, and/or applications of food engineering principles and the relevant processing equipment to packaging unit operations. Written by experts in the field of food engineering, in a simple and dynamic way, this book targets industrial Engineers working in the field of food processing and within food factories to make them more familiar with the particular food processing operations and equipment.

• Thoroughly explores novel applications of packaging unit operations in food industries
• The content helps to improve the quality and safety of food products with optimum packaging processes
• Brings different alternatives for the packaging operations
