About the Book

This book covers the fundamental science and engineering principles governing radio-frequency (RF) applications and provides a solid understanding of industrial RF unit design options, challenges, and opportunities for development. It explains the similarities, differences, advantages, and limitations of RF and microwave heating; discusses dielectric and thermo-physical properties; provides practical perspectives on industrial RF units used in manufacturing food products; examines RF-heating effects on microorganisms, enzymes, and food quality attributes; and explores RF-heating applications beyond food processing, such as waste treatment and counterfeit prevention.

Table of Contents:
Principles of Radio-Frequency and Microwave Heating. Radio-Frequency and Microwave Applications: Similarities, Advantages, and Limitations. Temperature Measurement in Radio-Frequency Applications. Dielectric Properties of Agricultural Products: Fundamental Principles, Influencing Factors, and Measurement Techniques.

About the Author :
George B. Awuah is currently the thermal process manager and process authority for Mars Petcare US, Franklin, Tennessee. He holds a B.Sc (Hon) from the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Ghana, and a Ph.D from McGill University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. He previously taught at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology; was a scientist and senior scientist at the Grocery Manufacturers Association, Washington, District of Columbia, USA; served as a research associate at McGill University; and collaborated with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Guelph, Ontario. Widely published, Dr. Awuah is a member of the Institute for Thermal Processing Specialists and Institute of Food Technologists. Hosahalli S. Ramaswamy holds a BS from Bangalore University, India; an MS from the Central Food Technological Research Institute, Mysore, India; and an MS and Ph.D from the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada. He is professor of food processing at McGill University, Ste-Anne-de-Bellevue, Quebec, Canada. During his 25 years at McGill, he has established several research programs in postharvest technology and food processing. Widely published and highly decorated, Dr. Ramaswamy is a popular keynote speaker, the editor of the Journal of Food Engineering, and a member of numerous boards and professional societies and a recipient of several awards, the recent ones being the Marvin Tung Award (IFTPS), fellow of CIFST, and fellow IUFoST. Recently, he led the Canadian team to win the bid to bring the 2015 International Congress of Food Engineering to Canada. Juming Tang is Regents professor and distinguished chair of food engineering at Washington State University, Pullman, USA. He has more than 20 years of research experience in areas of thermal processing using microwave and radio-frequency energy for food safety and pest control applications, in close collaboration with equipment
