Although chemical engineering and food technology are subject areas closely related to food processing systems and food plant design, coverage of the design of food plants is often sporadic and inadequately addressed in food technology and engineering books. Some books have attempted to treat food engineering from this dual point of view but, most

Sweetened Concentrated Milk Products: Science, Technology, and Engineering provides the most updated and comprehensive knowledge on different SCM products, delving into the production processes for each. Written by international experts, this book discusses existing information on concentrated milk and its more commercial forms, including evaporated and condensed milks. Other products detailed in this text include dulce de leches, such as sweetened caramelized goat's milk, panelitas de leche (milk panels), and various milk-based delicacies. The book presents the definition, main characteristics, common defects, and elaboration process for each commercial form. In addition, the book includes lifetime calculation data and results of the addition of whey into milk candies. Lastly, it provides information on the quality parameters which all SCMs must meet, including experimental design and application examples in SCM research and development. This is a vital resource for researchers and practitioners in dairy science with interests and work in SCM product formulation, technology, and seeking solutions for their defects. - Offers the most current data and information on sweetened, concentrated milk products - Discusses formulations, technology, product defects and solutions for each SCM product - Includes examples of experimental design and applications of innovative processes for those working in SCM research and development

This book highlights recent advances in the design of hybrid intelligent systems based on nature-inspired optimization and their application in areas such as intelligent control and robotics, pattern recognition, time series prediction, and optimization of complex problems. The book is divided into seven main parts, the first of which addresses theoretical aspects of and new concepts and algorithms based on type-2 and intuitionistic fuzzy logic systems. The second part focuses on neural network theory, and explores the applications of neural networks in diverse areas, such as time series prediction and pattern recognition. The book’s third part presents enhancements to meta-heuristics based on fuzzy logic techniques and describes new nature-inspired optimization algorithms that employ fuzzy dynamic adaptation of parameters, while the fourth part presents diverse applications of nature-inspired optimization algorithms. In turn, the fifth part investigates applications of fuzzy logic in diverse areas, such as time series prediction and pattern recognition. The sixth part examines new optimization algorithms and their applications. Lastly, the seventh part is dedicated to the design and application of different hybrid intelligent systems.
