Title:
Future proofing processing of foods

Research area and project description:
Current markets require novel food ingredients from sustainable food sources. We can no longer process the way we are used to. We need to use less energy, less water, and produce less waste. It is critical to understand the principles underpinning the changes of food components during processing, to create optimal structures with soft materials, with low environmental footprint and as nutritious as possible. In other words, design structures for optimal nutrition performance. This project will focus on the use of up scalable processing technologies such as filtration, extrusion, steam injection and their use with plant-based material, to understand how we can future proof food processing.
