Download or read book Emerging Dairy Processing Technologies written by Nivedita Datta and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-06-22 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fluid milk processing is energy intensive, with high financial and energy costs found all along the production line and supply chain. Worldwide, the dairy industry has set a goal of reducing GHG emissions and other environmental impacts associated with milk processing. Although the major GHG emissions associated with milk production occur on the farm, most energy usage associated with milk processing occurs at the milk processing plant and afterwards, during refrigerated storage (a key requirement for the transportation, retail and consumption of most milk products). Sustainable alternatives and designs for the dairy processing plants of the future are now being actively sought by the global dairy industry, as it seeks to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and comply with its corporate social responsibilities. Emerging Dairy Processing Technologies: Opportunities for the Dairy Industry presents the state of the art research and technologies that have been proposed as sustainable replacements for high temperature-short time (HTST) and ultra-high temperature (UHT) pasteurization, with potentially lower energy usage and greenhouse gas emissions. These technologies include pulsed electric fields, high hydrostatic pressure, high pressure homogenization, ohmic and microwave heating, microfiltration, pulsed light, UV light processing, and carbon dioxide processing. The use of bacteriocins, which have the potential to improve the efficiency of the processing technologies, is discussed, and information on organic and pasture milk, which consumers perceive as sustainable alternatives to conventional milk, is also provided. This book brings together all the available information on alternative milk processing techniques and their impact on the physical and functional properties of milk, written by researchers who have developed a body of work in each of the technologies. This book is aimed at dairy scientists and technologists who may be working in dairy companies or academia. It will also be highly relevant to food processing experts working with dairy ingredients, as well as university departments, research centres and graduate students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dairy products have always constituted an essential component in the Mediterranean diet. In addition to their nutritional values, they represent also a part of the cultural heritage of the people. Prospects for a sustainable dairy sector in the Mediterranean, preconditions for its development and the future consumers' demand were some of the issues covered by the papers presented at the EAAP - CIHEAM - FAO Mediterranean symposium. It was organised by the Tunisian Office for Livestock and Pastures and the National Agronomic Research Institute and sustained by the Government of Tunisia, FAO, ICAR and CIRVAL. Over 280 participants from 25 countries participated. The symposium identified a variety of technically viable and scientifically sound policy options and defined the main fields requiring further scientific research and the development of new sustainable technologies. The available technologies to address intensive, semi intensive and extensive production systems and the existing institutional framework (research, education, extension systems, organisation of the sector), although requiring continuous adjustments and improvements, have proved to be in a position to meet a variety of demands and challenges. In this respect, the Symposium called for an increase in research for the semi-intensive farming systems in the South and emerging issues resulting from changes in agricultural policies in the North. It emphasised the importance of producers1 associations as representatives of the interests of the sector and partners in the overall dialogue on policy matters and in the identification of research needs. The Symposium confirmed the wish and capacity of the dairy sector in the Region to contribute to the sustainable rural development, to the creation of new employment opportunities and to the reasonable and harmonious management of the natural resources.

Book excerpt: Milk has long been celebrated as a staple of human nutrition, providing essential nutrients that sustain and nurture populations across the globe. As the world's largest producer of milk, India has a deep-rooted cultural and economic connection to dairy farming. The success of the original White Revolution in the 1970s, driven by Operation Flood, transformed India from a milk-deficient nation into the largest milk producer in the world, ensuring food security and enhancing rural livelihoods. However, as we navigate the complexities of the 21st century, the dairy industry faces a new set of challenges that require innovative solutions. Population growth, urbanization, changing dietary preferences, climate change, and the increasing demand for quality and safe dairy products are pressing issues that demand a fresh wave of transformation-a Second White Revolution. This book, Improvement of Milk Production with Latest Technology Leading Towards White Revolution II, delves into the critical role that modern technology plays in revolutionizing dairy farming. From precision feeding systems and advanced milking technologies to genomic breeding and IoT-enabled health monitoring, the integration of cutting-edge tools and practices is paving the way for a new era of dairy production. These advancements not only promise to boost milk yield and quality but also enhance the sustainability and profitability of dairy farming, ensuring that it remains a viable livelihood for millions of farmers. Throughout this book, we explore how the latest technological innovations can address the challenges facing traditional dairy farming and unlock new opportunities for growth and development. By examining global trends, regional variations, and the economic impact of the dairy sector, we provide a comprehensive overview of the industry's current state and its future potential. We also highlight success stories from around the world, showcasing how technology-driven solutions have transformed dairy farms of all sizes, leading to increased productivity and improved animal welfare. These case studies serve as a testament to the power of innovation in driving the Second White Revolution. As you journey through the chapters of this book, you will gain insights into the practical applications of advanced technologies in dairy farming, from genetic selection and reproductive efficiency to sustainable practices and blockchain-based traceability. Our aim is to equip dairy farmers, industry stakeholders, policymakers, and researchers with the knowledge and tools they need to embrace this technological revolution and contribute to the next wave of dairy industry growth. The Second White Revolution is not just about increasing milk production-it's about creating a more resilient, efficient, and sustainable dairy sector that can meet the needs of a growing population while safeguarding the environment. By harnessing the potential of modern technology, we can build on the legacy of the first White Revolution and continue to make strides towards a future where milk production is not only abundant but also synonymous with quality, safety, and sustainability. Welcome to a new chapter in the story of dairy farming-a chapter where innovation leads the way towards a brighter, more prosperous future for all.

Download or read book Milk Production Processing and Marketing written by Khalid Javed and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2019-07-17 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Milk is considered as a complete diet for an infant and contains essential nutrients for the development of young mammals. The substances in milk provide energy and antibodies that help protect against infection. Most farmers are paid for the quality and composition of their milk. Whole milk, once approved for use, is pumped into storage silos where it undergoes pasteurization, homogenization, separation, and further processing. Milk is a highly perishable commodity because it is an excellent medium for the growth of microorganisms - particularly bacterial pathogens - that can cause spoilage as well as diseases in consumers. Milk processing allows the preservation of milk for days, weeks, or months and helps to reduce food-borne illness.
Download or read book Sustainable Food Processing written by Brijesh K. Tiwari and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-12-31 with total page 621 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sustainable Food Processing Food processors face numerous challenges from ever-changing economic, social and environmental conditions. With global inequalities increasing, ingredient costs climbing, and global climate change becoming a major political issue, food producers must now address environmental concerns, social responsibility and economic viability when shaping their food processing techniques for the future. Food production, preservation and distribution contribute to greenhouse gas emissions from the agri-food sector, therefore food producers require detailed, industrially relevant information that addresses these challenges. The food industry, as one of the world’s largest users of energy, must embrace new ways of meeting the needs of the present without compromising future viability. It is important that the industry does not merely focus on simple indicators of sustainability that are relatively easy to calculate and hold appeal for governments and the public, but which do not properly address the many dimensions of sustainability. This book provides a comprehensive overview of both economic sustainability and the environmental concerns that relate to food processing. It is divided into four sections. Part one deals with principles and assessment of sustainability in the context of food processing; Part two summarises sustainability in various food processing applications within the food industry; Part three considers sustainability in food manufacturing operations that are vital in food production systems; and Part four addresses sustainable food distribution and consumption. As the most comprehensive reference book for industry to date, this book will provide engineers, educators, researchers, policy makers and scientists working in the food industry with a valuable resource for their work.
