High Pressure Thermal Processing provides a detailed understanding on the technology itself, what it can be used for, and the benefits of the technology over conventional processing. From an academic perspective, all sections clearly outline the intricacies of the technology, new applications (other than for spore inactivation) and how technology related process variables impact on food, quality attributes, textures, safety, and chemical aspects, etc. From a manufacturer perspective, throughout the product development stage and the actual commercial implementation, the book content will assist users greatly in doing this efficiently and safely.
Within a single reference book, this book reaches researchers in academia who face the challenge to drive the science and assist the manufacturers to commercialize these new technologies. It is also ideal for regulators around the world who need to assess these new technologies and implement guidelines for manufacturers.
