Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Food processing is a dynamically developing area in fundamental and applied research in academia and industry, and this takes an important place in manufacturing processes. Challenges and drivers stemming from environment protection, competitiveness of the globalized market, and more recently, requests by consumers and society strongly require innovations that break away from the past rather than following simple continuity. Novel food processing and extraction technologies of high-added value compounds from plant materials could be a new concept to meet the challenges for the future of humanity on this strategic 21st century, to protect both the environment and consumers and, in the meantime, enhance competition of industries to be more ecologic, economic, and innovative.
In this Special Issue, we encourage the submission of manuscripts on new food processing and new innovation strategies for the extraction of high-added value compounds from plant materials. Strategies can cover a wide range of innovative solutions in new food processes but also in natural product extraction techniques.
