The urgent need for sustainability within the food producing industries has turned the interest of research to investigate new non-thermal technologies, nanotechnologies and other practices in postharvest treatment of crops and fruits. Food Losses, Sustainable Postharvest and Food Technology explores modern non-thermal technologies, focusing on postharvest losses and quality of fresh-cut products, while exploring the potentiality and sustainability of already commercialized processes and products. Aimed at professionals working in the food industry and agriculture, it could also be utilized as a handbook for anyone dealing with sustainability issues of food production in spite of postharvest treatment.
