Gelatin isolated from limed split wastes can be a high value product due to its special characteristics and has many potential future applications in Food, functional additives, Food and pharmaceutical industries. Concentrations of sodium hydroxide, sulfuric and acetic acids used in processing gelatin from Narrow barred, Carcharhinus Leucas, Siganus Sutor and Indo Pacific king mackerel skins af...

Quality evaluation is an important factor in food processing industries using the computer vision system where human inspection systems provide high variability. In many countries food processing industries aims at producing defect free food materials to the consumers. Human evaluation techniques suffer from high labour costs, inconsistency and variability. Thus this paper provides various step...

Automated food processing and evaluation is considered a significant research area in computer vision. The development of automated cooking and food serving by robots is envisaged as part of automated food processing and temperature plays a major role in cooking Indian foods. The delicious Indian foods are generally boiled or fried with other ingredients. The boiled grains like Bengal Gram, Bla...

Initiation and development of the industries producing specialty starches, modified food starches, high-fructose sweeteners, and food gums (hydrocolloids) over the past century provided major ingredients for the rapid and extensive growth of the processed food and beverage industries. Introduction of waxy maize starch and high-amylose corn starch occurred in the 1940s and 1950s, respectively. D...

Noise presents health and social problems in industrial operations, and is mainly related to machinery used in the industries. The present study was conducted in the different utilities industries in Jeddah Industrial Estate (JIE), in order to assess the magnitude of the problem of industrial noise exposure there in an endeavor to propose remedial controls to the problem. Noise was measured in ...

In this study, the energy consumption in the food and beverage industries of Iran was investigated. The energy consumption in this sector was modeled using artificial neural network (ANN), response surface methodology (RSM) and genetic algorithm (GA). First, the input data to the model were calculated according to the statistical source, balance-sheets and the method proposed in this paper. It ...

The establishment of validated methodologies for the determination of food shelf-life is currently demanded by both food industries and Health Authorities at national and international scale. It is well known that most foods are perishable, since they are subjected to modifications in their structure, composition and properties during storage before consumption. These changes are of physico-che...

ground beef. This summary briefly addresses the remaining questions about food irradiation. In addition, it provides a useful summary of the regulatory history and the current state of scientific knowledge of the technology as applied to food. Federal regulators, food scientists, food processors, and consumers will write the next chapter in the story of irradiation. New challenges awaiting reso...
