Food & Biproducts Processing

Braddock (food and agriculture science, U. of Florida-Lake Alfred) describes various traditional and innovative processing technologies as they apply to juice and by-products. For industrial and academic scientists and engineers, he provides a basic knowledge of the chemical aspects of juice products and their manufacture, and details the technological and chemical characteristics of the by-products themselves. He also presents an overview of the citrus industry and a review of the history of processing in it. He does not consider marketing. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
