Beskrivning
This updated edition offers an accessible introduction to reaction technology in food and biological processing tailored for professional workers and students in the field. With two new chapters covering biological reactions including enzymatic and fermentation systems and integrating transport phenomena with reaction engineering, it expands the scope of the original text to reflect the evolving challenges and innovations in food technology.The book explores the rate and control of chemical changes during processing, emphasizing both desired transformations and those that compromise quality. New examples such as high-pressure processing, pulsed electric fields and ultrasound are woven throughout the text, alongside extended discussions on sustainability, shelf life, food waste, energy use and environmental impact. Each chapter builds a quantitative understanding of how food products change during processing and storage, offering tools to manipulate and improve outcomes.From microbial control to enzyme bioreactors and heat transfer limitations, the text equips readers to design better processes and develop novel products. With additional problems for teaching and self-study, this edition is an essential resource for those seeking to deepen their grasp of food reaction engineering and contribute to the future of sustainable, high-quality food manufacturing.

Richard L. Earle is Professor Emeritus, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand, where he was Head of Department of Process and Environmental Technology and Dean of the Faculty of Technology. Trained in chemical engineering and in operations research, he worked in the Meat Industry Research Institute of New Zealand. He then became Foundation Professor of Biotechnology at Massey University and was concerned with the processing of This communication (including any attachments) is intended for the use of the addressee only and may contain confidential, privileged or copyright material.

He wrote a pioneering textbook on Unit Operations in Food Processing, used throughout the world. He has taught reaction technology courses at undergraduate and graduate levels, and in industrial seminars in New Zealand, Canada, Thailand and Australia. He has been involved with the manufacturing industry, including the development of a pharmaceutical company using meat by-products in New Zealand, and has also authored or co-authored many papers and a number of books.Marie Wong is a Professor in the College of Sciences at Massey University. In her twenty-five-year career at Massey she has taught many topics in food technology and food process engineering, including reaction kinetics, thermal process kinetics and modelling. She has supervised over 100 postgraduate research students in food technology and food engineering related projects, which have included extraction and separation technologies, fermentation, enzymatic hydrolysis, predictive modelling; for a number of food systems, including fruit, seafood, meat, dairy, bread and fats and oils. She works closely with the NZ food industry, having obtained and managed over 200 projects, assisting the industry to solve their problems through student research projects. Prior to joining Massey, Marie worked in the food industry then worked for 12 years in a NZ government crown research institute, mainly focusing on processing of horticultural crops. Marie is a Massey graduate majoring in biotechnology and food engineering, and was taught reaction engineering by Professor Richard L. Earle during her undergraduate years.John E. Bronlund is Principal Research Engineer at Fonterra Research and Development Centre, Palmerston North, New Zealand and Adjunct Professor in Food and Bioprocess Engineering at Massey University. Until 2023, he was Professor of Food and Bioprocess Engineering in the School of Food and Advanced Technology at Massey University where he taught reaction engineering, processing and mechanistic modelling to Food technology and Chemical engineering undergraduate and postgraduate students. He has led several research programmes that link to a range of food industry sectors including manufactured foods, dairy, meat, seafood, and packaging, nearly all of which employ the reaction engineering framework explained in this book. During his academic career he supervised over thirty PhD students and has written over 100 research papers. Some time ago he was lucky enough to have been taught reaction engineering by Professor Richard L Earle which sparked a lifelong interest in food reaction technology.
