Drying is amongst the most commonly utilised operations in food and feed processing, as well as in other process industries. It is also one of the most energy-intensive, therefore making it a significant operation with respect to both processing cost and carbon footprint. In many instances, if the dryer is producing suitable product, it tends to be ignored. Typically, many industrial drying processes are performing, but not well. These defic...

Scaling an extrusion process (e.g., from pilot scale to production scale) or transferring a process from one type of extruder to another (of the same or different makes/models), involves an understanding of many process variables. This book takes a complex task, commonly approached largely on an empirical (or "trial and error") basis and shows how scientific and engineering principles can be assembled to design the required outcome - that is, ...

Este libro se desarrolló durante un período de más de veinte años, durante los cuales los autores llevaron a cabo cursos cortos sobre tecnología de extrusión en la industria, primero en Australia y luego a nivel internacional. La nueva segunda edición contiene un capítulo adicional sobre "Desarrollo óptimo de los perfiles de tornillo", así como otras adiciones y mejoras.Al igual que los cursos, este libro tiene como objetivo presentar la teorí...

This book presents the theory behind extrusion technology, as used for food and feed products, in a way which can be readily applied in practice. It provides good fundamental understanding, but presented in the context of practical application, so that readers can understand how it applies in a real manufacturing situation. This book is relevant to all types of extruded human foods and animal feeds, and all types of equipment used to produce t...

This book presents the theory and methodology used in the design of dies for extruded food and feed products. It is relevant to all types of extruded human foods and animal feeds. In addition to presenting the theory and principles underpinning die design, it uses worked examples to demonstrate the die design process. The author brings decades of industry experience to this book. Dennis Forte is a chemical engineer by training, who has spent h...
