Bookkeeping of a Process

Not only numerical numbers but also units are essential for quantitative expression of physical quantities. We first give a general account of the internationally standardized system of units called the International System of Units (SI). Food processing

Preface

Food science refers to an integrated science, encompassing comprehensive aspects of the processing of all sorts of bioresources including agricultural, livestock, and marine products into food or food ingredients. Also included are the methods of preparation as well as the effects on the human body resulting from the ingestion of the prepared food products, and in this way food science contributes to the betterment of health and the enrichment of life for mankind. In order to achieve these ultimate goals, food-manufacturing knowledge for processing bioresources into food and food ingredients is therefore indispensable. The discipline of food manufacturing includes both food processing or food technology, which refers to the study of the objectives and principles of the respective unit processes along the production flow of a food or food ingredient; and also food engineering, which covers the study of a long list of principles common for operations in food-manufacturing processes such as heating and agitation. The former study conforms to actual food-manufacturing flows and thus is re
