Food Engineering Innovations Across the Food Supply Chain discusses the technology advances and innovations into industrial applications to improve supply chain sustainability and food security. The book captures the highlights of the 13th International Congress of Engineering ICEF13 under selected congress themes, including Sustainable Food Systems, Food Security, Advances in Food Process Engineering, Novel Food Processing Technologies, Food Process Systems Engineering and Modeling, among others. Edited by a team of distinguished researchers affiliated to CSIRO, this book is a valuable resource to all involved with the Food Industry and Academia.
Feeding the world's population with safe, nutritious and affordable foods across the globe using finite resources is a challenge. The population of the world is increasing. There are two opposed sub-populations: those who are more affluent and want to decrease their caloric intake, and those who are malnourished and require more caloric and nutritional intake. For sustainable growth, an increasingly integrated systems approach across the whole supply chain is required.

Authors
Pablo Juliano Group Leader, Food Processing and Supply Chains, CSIRO, Australia. Dr. Pablo Juliano leads the Food Processing and Supply Chains Group, which aims at solving food industry challenges through science and innovation. He obtained his PhD in Food Engineering at Washington State University in the USA and a Master of Business Administration at Deakin University in Australia. He also occupied management roles with Nestl� Uruguay and CONAPROLE, a major dairy exporter in Uruguay. With over 20 years of service to the food industry in 7 countries, he develops and directs circular economy research programs through technology innovation. He has published over 100 peer reviewed research in innovative food processing technologies and optimisation of food supply chains. In particular, he led the development and commercialisation of an unprecedented, patented technology for food waste recovery. He is the CSIRO representative on the Australian Food Waste Strategy together with industry peak bodies, the federal and state governments, and is working with food clusters towards the implementation of agricultural food processing hubs for regional development. He is President of the Australian Food Engineers Association. Kai Knoerzer Principal Research Scientist/Engineer, Food Engineering, CSIRO, Australia. Dr. Kai Knoerzer has a background in process engineering (BSc), chemical engineering (MSc) and food process engineering (PhD, summa cum laude), all awarded from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (Germany). In 2006, he commenced work with Food Science Australia (a joint venture of the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) and the Victorian Government) as a Postdoctoral fellow. He has since become a Principal Research Scientist in CSIRO Agriculture and Food. Kai has a proven track record in food process engineering research and development, particularly of innovative technologies. Currently, he is leading research and venture science activities across a number of innovative food processing technologies, including high pressure thermal processing and extrusion technology. Kai's work has shown both science impact, with more than 100 peer-reviewed journal publications, conference proceedings and book chapters, 7 patents/applications, 4 edited books and over 100 oral and 50 poster presentations at national and international conferences, as well as commercial impact in the food industry. His work has also been recognised with various international awards for research excellence. Kai has been an active member of IFT's International Division in the leadership team for >10 years and is past chair of this division. Kai serves Elsevier's Food Science Reference Collections as the Food Process Engineering section editor. Jay Sellahewa Adjunct Senior Lecturer, UNSW Sydney. Mr. Jay Sellahewa graduated in Chemical Engineering from Bath University followed by a MSc in Food Engineering from Leeds University. Jay has a career spanning 45 years in research and industry in Australia and the UK where he has undertaken assignments in Australia, Europe, USA, Africa and Asia. Jay's experience includes managing complex multi-disciplinary projects, carrying out strategic planning and the successful commercialisation of research in the agrifood industry. Jay has expertise in food process systems engineering, extrusion technology, non-thermal processing, sustainable food processing and Humanitarian Food Science & Technology. Jay is a Fellow of the Institution of Chemical Engineers and the Australian Institute of Food Science and Technology. Following a long career at CSIRO, Jay is currently an Adjunct Senior Lecturer at UNSW Sydney Minh H. Nguyen University of Western Sydney and University of Newcastle, Australia. Prof. Nguyen has over 40 years of experience in Food Science and Technology as lecturer and researcher at Hawkesbury Agricultural College/ University of Western Sydney, National College of Food Technology, UK, Asian Institute of Technology, Thailand, Nestle Australia, Sandy Trout Food Preservation Research Laboratory Queensland.
