Synopsis

Millions of tonnes of waste are produced every year by the agri-food industry. Disposal by landfill or incineration is already expensive and the industry faces increasing costs for the removal of refuse and remnants. The costs of energy and water are also significant for food businesses and savings can be made in these areas if the quantity of energy and water used is limited. Methods to recycle and reduce the need for disposal are therefore increasingly of interest. This comprehensive collection reviews research in the field, covering optimisation of manufacturing procedures to decrease waste, reduction of energy and water expenditure, methods to valorise refuse by co-product recovery and techniques to deal with wastewater and solid waste.

Key Features: looks at the optimisation of manufacturing procedures to decrease waste, energy and water use; explores methods to valorise waste by co-product recovery; considers best practice in different sectors of the food industry.

Contents: Part 1 Key drivers for waste management and co-product recovery in food processing: Waste minimisation, management and co-product recovery in food processing: an introduction; Consumer interests in food processing waste management and co-product recovery. Part 2 Optimising manufacturing to minimise waste in food processing: Chain management issues and good housekeeping procedures to minimise food processing waste; Process optimisation to minimise energy use in food processing; Process optimisation to minimise water use in food processing. Part 3 Key issues and technologies for food waste separation and co-product recovery: The importance of microbiological risk management in the stabilization of food processing do-products; Effects of post harvest changes in quality on the stability of plant co-products; The potential for de-structuring of food processing waste by combination processing; Enzymatic extraction and fermentation for the recovery of food processing products; Supercritical fluid extraction and other technologies for extraction of high value food processing co-products; Membrane and filtration technologies and the separation and recovery of food processing waste; Separation technologies for food wastewater treatment and product recovery. Part 4 Waste management in particular food industry sectors and recovery of specific co-products: Waste management and co-product recovery in red and white meat processing; Waste management and co-product recovery in dairy processing; Waste management and co-product recovery in fish processing; Recovery and reuse of trimmings and pulps from fruit and vegetable processing; High-value co-products from plant foods: nutraceuticals, micronutrients, functional ingredients; High-value co-products from plant foods: cosmetics and pharmaceuticals; Natural dyes from food processing wastes; Improving waste management and co-product recovery in vegetable oil. Part 5 Minimising disposal: Wastewater and solid waste management in the food industry: Treatment of food processing wastewater; Dewatering systems for solid food processing waste; Fermentation, biogas and biohydrogen production from solid food processing.
