Applications in Microwave Processing: Expanding the Scope beyond Cooking, Benefits and Risks provides a comprehensive guide on the principles and recent interest in microwave technology, along with its cross-disciplinary applications. Divided into two sections, the first one discusses the foundation of the principle, emerging applications, and recent interest in microwave technology. The second section explores the cross-discipline applications of microwave technology in different fields, which include bioactive extraction, clinical thermo-therapy, polymer processing, catalytic pyrolysis, thermal sterilization, biopharmaceuticals, wastewater treatment, drying process, mineral processing, and in biological process.
Overall, this title discusses the drawback of microwave assisted technology, scalability concerns and outlook. Edited by a team of experts in the field, this book is a great asset for all researchers, Industrial expert, Biotechnologist and all interested in optimal management and usage of microwaves.
