Infos

Innovative Food Packaging and Processing Technologies: Present and Future presents the latest information about technologies that are currently under research and can be transferred to the industry shortly. It also provides information about other novel technologies that are started to be investigated but show potential use in the industry, like PEF, cold plasma, megasonic, radiofrequency, infrared, nanotechnology technologies. This book also includes the most recent information regarding the novel packaging technologies and packaging materials in the food science/food engineering arena, examples include packaging aspects, food regulations, plant-based alternatives to animal foods, consumer phobia/acceptance of new technologies. A special section includes information about novel ingredients and product development. This book also covers the point of view of industry and equipment manufacturers related to novel technologies. The consumer role in accepting novel technologies and products is also presented, making it a unique resource to researchers, graduate students and professionals in the food industry.

Autor

Daniela Bermudez-Aguirre has a background in Food Engineering (BSc), Food Science (MSc), and Engineering Science, with a focus on Food Engineering (PhD). During her graduate and post-doctorate work at Washington State University (WSU), she was involved in the development of nonthermal technologies for food processing and preservation, such as high hydrostatic pressure, pulsed electric fields, ultrasound, ultraviolet, cold plasma, and ozone. Her research at WSU also included projects funded by the Department of Defense (DoD) to improve the quality of military rations without compromising the food safety using innovative thermal processing. Afterwards, she worked as a senior research scientist for Lockheed Martin, a contractor of NASA. At NASA Johnson Space Center, she was the principal investigator of a project that used cold plasma to disinfect vegetables grown and consumed in-orbit by astronauts. In the last few years, she has been a consultant to industry and research centers about the use and applications of cold plasma equipment. She is the author of more than 60 peer-review publications, editor of 3 books in Food Engineering, and reviewer of over 50 high-impact journals in food science and technology. She has more than 20 years of experience working on nonthermal technologies for food safety and product development.
