Handbook of Food Powders
Opis
Many food ingredients are supplied in powdered form as reducing the water content increases shelf life and lowers transportation costs. Some important consumer food products are also commonly purchased in this form. Powder technology is therefore of great importance to the food industry. This book reviews essential topics in this area. The first part of this book reviews powder production and handling technologies. Chapters in part two consider essential powder properties. The final section of the book contains chapters on a wide range of different powders produced and used in the food and beverage industries.
