Innovations of agri-food systems during the last 50 years have been guided by a globalized agro-industrial paradigm, which has contributed to climate change, degradation of natural resources, soil depletion, social inequalities, loss of biodiversity and various food-related health problems. Despite the increasing emphasis of food policies and research to address these issues with ecologically sustainable innovations, there are still no studies that explain how to utilize and integrate ecodesign practices in food products development in a world of finite resources. This book explains how to employ ecodesign in business models to address the economic, social, environmental, and nutritional problems that face the world�s food systems. The lessons of the ÉcoTrophélia project ? a unique program implemented by a group of European agricultural higher education institutions to involve students in designing and developing food ecoinnovation projects ? are explored. Through an analysis of these projects, the authors describe the tools, methods and standards that were developed to institute ecodesign into the business models of 11 ecologically-friendly food products. This book provides operational good practices that can be implemented in educational programs and agri-food industries, to orient learning and practices towards greater sustainability.

Models have become an indispensable tool for scientists and engineers alike. For the scientist, a model makes it possible to quantitatively test hypotheses, understand phenomena, and, if necessary, revise them until a satisfactory agreement with experiments is reached. For the engineer, a technical object is nowadays designed, tested and optimized in simulation long before its physical birth. In all cases, modeling is an important gas pedal of research and engineering, and a tool for competitiveness in the modern world. Modeling and Optimization of Food and Bio-Processes is aimed at anyone with a grounding in process, chemical or microbiological engineering, as well as students of these disciplines. Drawing on the authors extensive teaching and research experience, this book is designed to teach engineers and scientists the main concepts and the right reflexes to adopt when embarking on the noble art of modeling.
