Food processing is one of the most energy intensive industries. As energy costs rise and the consistency of its supply becomes more tenuous, those in the industry need to seek out innovations that will reduce consumption. Providing a compendium of energy conservation practices, this volume begins by discussing the fundamentals of energy conservation, analysis, and management. It then details energy conservation technologies as applied to the food processing industry, and provides a survey of energy efficiency and conservation methods currently employed in food processing systems. It then discusses emerging systems, as well as energy conversion technologies that make use of food processing wastes.
