Food Engineering: Principles and Selected Applications explores the principles of food engineering that are needed for resolving problems of food processing and preservation. This book is divided into 11 chapters that provide numerous effective examples and discussions of unique aspects of the food industry, which utilize these principles. This book discusses first the boiling heat transfer and the multi-effect principle for evaporators, as well as the application of this principle to the special problems involved in evaporation of liquid foods. The subsequent chapters cover the principles of fluid dynamics and axial dispersion. The discussion then shifts to the effect of residence-time distribution on continuous sterilization processes. The concluding chapters examine the concepts of water activity and its effect upon various reactions important to food processing and quality. This book is intended for both students and practicing food engineers and technologists.

Recent Advances in Liquid-liquid Extraction focuses on the applications of liquid extraction. The selection first discusses solvent extraction. Concerns include organic and inorganic separations, mass transfer process, solvent extraction economics, and coalescence in liquid-liquid systems. The book focuses on the chemistry of solvent extraction. Extraction by acidic organophosphorus compounds; extraction by phosphorus-bonded oxygen-donor solvents; extraction by high-molecular weight amines; and synergistic extraction are elaborated. The book also focuses on industrial organic processes; industrial contacting equipment; response characteristics and control of extraction processes; and calculation of contactors with longitudinal mixing. The selection presents the study of longitudinal mixing in liquid-liquid contactors. Rotating disc contactors, packed columns, vibrating plate extractors, and Oldshue-Rushton columns are described. The text also discusses heat transfer by direct liquid-liquid contact and the coalescence of liquid droplets and liquid dispersion. The selection is a vital source of data for readers interested in liquid extraction.
