Book Description
High amounts of waste are generated daily in various food processing industries inclusing seed, pomace, pit, peel, germ, husk, broken pulses, sludge, skin, bones, blood, feathers, wash water, and spent residue, among others. Several tons of generated waste can be effectively used to manufacture or recover such value-added by-products as fibers, antioxidants, proteins, vitamins and minerals, biofilms, fertilizers, and animal feed. While food processing- generated waste may lead to health and environmental hazards, it is critical to identify proper protocols to recover valuable ingredients from waste, thereby creating wealth in the society. Wealth out of Food Processing Waste identifies and describes the proper protocols to recover valuable ingredients from waste, thereby creating wealth in society. The effective utilization of waste can generate income for the entrepreneur, lead to more employment for society, enhance fertility of soil, reduce environmental pollution, conserve resources, and help augment national economies to a greater extent. Key Features: Provides in-depth knowledge about conversion of waste derived from various food processing industries into various value-added products Highlights the extraction of antioxidants and functional food ingredients from industrial food waste Presents current and emerging trends using biotechnological approaches for conversion of waste into various value-added products This book provides food industry personnel, scientists, food engineers, biotechnologists, research scholars, and students with strategies for effective utilization of waste from various food processing industries.

High Value Fermentation Products, Volume 1
Author: Saurabh Saran
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1119460042
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 480
Book Description
Green technologies are no longer the “future” of science, but the present. With more and more mature industries, such as the process industries, making large strides seemingly every single day, and more consumers demanding products created from green technologies, it is essential for any business in any industry to be familiar with the latest processes and technologies. It is all part of a global effort to “go greener,” and this is nowhere more apparent than in fermentation technology. This book describes relevant aspects of industrial-scale fermentation, an expanding area of activity, which already generates commercial values of over one third of a trillion US dollars annually, and which will most likely radically change the way we produce chemicals in the long-term future. From biofuels and bulk amino acids to monoclonal antibodies and stem cells, they all rely on mass suspension cultivation of cells in stirred bioreactors, which is the most widely used and versatile way to produce. Today, a wide array of cells can be cultivated in this way, and for most of them genetic engineering tools are also available. Examples of products, operating procedures, engineering and design aspects, economic drivers and cost, and regulatory issues are addressed. In addition, there will be a discussion of how we got to where we are today, and of the real world in industrial fermentation. This chapter is exclusively dedicated to large-scale production used in industrial settings.

Climate-Resilient Agriculture, Vol 1
Author: Mirza Hasanuzzaman
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 303137424X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 1015
Book Description
Under ongoing climate change, natural and cultivated habitats of major food crops are being continuously disturbed. Such condition accelerates to impose stress effects like abiotic and biotic stressors. Drought, salinity, flood, cold, heat, heavy metals, metalloids, oxidants, irradiation etc. are important abiotic stresses; and diseases and infections caused by plant pathogens viz. fungal agents, bacteria and viruses are major biotic stresses. As a result, these harsh environments affect crop productivity and its biology in multiple complex paradigms. As stresses become the limiting factors for agricultural productivity and exert detrimental role on growth and yield of the crops, scientists and researchers are challenged to maintain global food security for a rising world population. This two-volume work highlights the fast-moving agricultural research on crop improvement through the stress mitigation strategies, with specific focuses on crop biology and their response to climatic instabilities. Together with "Climate Resilient Agriculture, Vol 2: Agro-Biotechnological Advancement for Crop Production", it covers a wide range of topics under environmental challenges, agronomy and agriculture processes, and biotechnological approaches, uniquely suitable for scientists, researchers and students working in the fields of agriculture, plant science, environmental biology and biotechnology.
