Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
For this upcoming Special Issue of Foods, you are welcome to submit original research and review articles which may advance our current knowledge about “Technologies of Food Extraction, Pressing, Extrusion, and Drying”.
The processing of foods and assertive use of agroindustrial byproducts and wastes from vegetable and fruit handling can mitigate hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition. Many technologies have been proposed to improve the extraction of macro and minor constituents from foods, wastes, and byproducts, such as pressing, extrusion, drying, and association of these with traditional or modern solvent extraction techniques.
This Special Issue of Foods is focused on studies that could present solutions to:
- Maximize the recovering yields of lipids, proteins, fibers, vitamins, or antioxidants;
- Improve the availability of macro and minor nutrients;
- Preserve the nutritional value of processed foods by mechanical approaches, such as extrusion and pressing;
- Modify structural, rheological, functional, or sensory aspects to increase the acceptability and commercial applications.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Foods is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
