Sinopsis

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.áIt 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 them: single- and twin-screw extruders, and specialised snack food machines.áIt considers how the equipment and processes operate, and how the process conditions interact with the ingredients used. Understanding the theory behind the process - and how it applies in practice - means that formulations and processes can be designed to be more robust, appropriate equipment can be selected for the required duty, and effective operating procedures and guidelines can be developed - leading to reliable processes and consistent product. The authors bring decades of industry and research experience to this book.áThis Second Edition includes a new chapter on the development of optimal screw profiles, as well as other additional material and updates to the text and format.
