1. Mapping the AI Landscape in Food Science and Engineering: A Bibliometric Analysis Enhanced with Interactive Digital Tools and Company Case Studies.
PMID:日期:2025-07-01The proliferation of research on Artificial Intelligence (AI) in food science and engineering has made it increasingly difficult to synthesise relevant insights effectively. Although AI adoption in the food industry has grown, it lags behind sectors like finance and healthcare due to the complexity of food systems, including high process variability, risk aversion towards novel technologies, and constrained investment appetite. Historically, computational techniques and AI-adjacent technologies like expert systems and empirical modelling have supported food research and development for decades. More recently, AI applications have broadened to include process control, food safety, ingredient and product quality, sensory evaluation, traceability, and supply chain management. In response to the rapid increase in AI-related food science publications - particularly since 2019 - this review introduces tools for dynamically synthesising and exploring this evolving knowledge base. We present an interactive dashboard that integrates a curated dataset of food AI review articles with advanced bibliometric analyses, enabling user-driven exploration of research trends and thematic relationships. Additionally, we demonstrate the use of customised large language model (LLM) tools for targeted literature interrogation, enhancing accessibility for researchers and industry stakeholders. Complementing this academic synthesis, we profile selected industry case studies where AI plays a central role in ingredient discovery, product development, intelligent sorting, and sensory analytics. By combining interactive research tools with real-world case studies, this review offers a comprehensive snapshot of Food AI and begins to bridge the gap between academic research and industry implementation, providing a valuable resource for those seeking both domain-specific knowledge and actionable insights.

2. Advancement and Innovations in Drying of Biopharmaceuticals, Nutraceuticals, and Functional Foods.
PMID:日期:2024-08-07Drying is a crucial unit operation within the functional foods and biopharmaceutical industries, acting as a fundamental preservation technique and a mechanism to maintain these products' bioactive components and nutritional values. The heat-sensitive bioactive components, which carry critical quality attributes, necessitate a meticulous selection of drying methods and conditions backed by robust research. In this review, we investigate challenges associated with drying these heat-sensitive materials and examine the impact of various drying methods. Our thorough research extensively covers ten notable drying methods: heat pump drying, freeze-drying, spray drying, vacuum drying, fluidized bed drying, superheated steam drying, infrared drying, microwave drying, osmotic drying, vacuum drying, and supercritical fluid drying. Each method is tailored to address the requirements of specific functional foods and biopharmaceuticals and provides a comprehensive account of each technique's inherent advantages and potential limitations. Further, the review ventures into the exploration of combined hybrid drying techniques and smart drying technologies with industry 4.0 tools such as automation, AI, machine learning, IoT, and cyber-physical systems. These innovative methods are designed to enhance product performance and elevate the quality of the final product in the drying of functional foods and biopharmaceuticals. Through a thorough survey of the drying landscape, this review illuminates the intricacies of these operations and underscores their pivotal role in functional foods and biopharmaceutical production.

3. Recent Developments of Membrane Technology in the Clarification and Concentration of Fruit Juices.
PMID:日期:2023-06-10Fruit juices are traditionally processed thermally to avoid microorganisms' growth and increase their shelf-life. The concentration of juices by thermal evaporation is carried out to reduce their volume and consequently the storage and transportation costs. However, many studies revealed that the high-temperature operation destroys many valuable nutrients and the aroma of the juice. Currently, membrane technology has emerged as an alternative to conventional processes to clarify and concentrate fruit juices due to its ability to improve juices' safety, quality, and nutritional values. Low-cost, low-energy requirement, and minimal footprint make membrane technology an attractive choice for industrial adoption. The low-temperature operation that preserves the nutritional and sensorial quality of the juice can fulfill the market demand for healthy juice products. In this review, the pressure-driven membrane processes, including microfiltration, ultrafiltration, and reverse osmosis; osmotic distillation; membrane distillation; and forward osmosis that have been widely investigated in recent years, are discussed.

4. Processing Technologies for the Extraction of Value-Added Bioactive Compounds from Tea.
PMID:日期:2023-02-25Tea ( is the most widely consumed beverage in the world, with an excellent source of bioactive compounds such as catechins, caffeine, and epigallocatechin. There is an increasing trend to extract these bioactive compounds to deliver them as value-added products. Generally, the extraction of polyphenols and other functional compounds from different parts of tea is carried out using different solvents (e.g., water, water-ethanol, ethanol, methanol, acetone, ethyl acetate, and acetonitrile). The extraction efficiency of functional compounds from tea depends on the type and polarity of the solvent as well as the applied process. Several conventional techniques, such as boiling, heating, Soxhlet, and cold extraction, are used to extract bioactive ingredients. However, these procedures are unsuitable for achieving high yields and biological activities due to the long extraction times of cold brewing and the high temperatures in other heating methods. Many efforts have been carried out in food and pharmaceutical industries to replace conventional extraction techniques with innovative technologies (e.g., microwave (MAE), ultrasonic (UAE), pressurized liquid (PLE), pulsed electric field (PEF), and supercritical fluid (SFE)), which are fast, safe, energy-saving, and can present eco-friendly characteristics. These innovative extraction techniques have proven to improve the recovery rate of phenolic-based antioxidant compounds from tea and increase their extraction efficiency. In this review, the application of novel processing technologies for the extraction of value-added compounds from tea leaves is reviewed. The advantages and drawbacks of using these technologies are also highlighted.

5. Performance Assessment and Modeling Techniques for Domestic Solar Dryers.
5. 家用太阳能干燥器的性能评估与建模技术PMID:日期:2023-01-31Solar dryers have always been criticized for their lower performances. There are numerous ways to define the performance of a solar drying system such as thermal performance, drying kinetics, environmental aspects, economic evaluations, and quality of the dried product. Different modeling techniques have also been developed to design and analyze solar dryers and drying processes. This article presents a systematic, comprehensive, and state-of-the-art overview of various performance indicators and modeling techniques used for the evaluation and analysis of solar dryers, especially domestic and low cost solar dryers. Environmental analysis has severe global implications, and product quality is one of the biggest concerns of consumers. But the environmental impact and product quality assessments for domestic solar dryers are observed to be rarely reported in the literature. The use of modeling techniques in solar drying has changed the way of analyzing any thermal system. Here, an attempt is made to establish an overall assessment criterion for domestic solar dryers and to give a one-stop solution for researchers and users around the world.

6. The Application of Cold Plasma Technology in Low-Moisture Foods.
PMID:日期:2023-01-03Low-moisture foods such as spices, grains, and seeds constitute an important part of the human diet. Increased consumer concern for food safety and food quality has focused on the decontamination technologies required for low-moisture foods. Cold plasma treatment has been a promising novel technology in the food processing industry due to its advantages in safety, efficiency, versatility, and environmentally friendly nature. It has shown various capabilities on safety and quality control in low-moisture foods. This paper comprehensively reviewed the application of cold plasma in low-moisture foods, including inactivation of microorganisms, degradation of mycotoxins, influences on the quality of low-moisture foods, and promotion of seed germination. Cold plasma can inactivate the pathogenic microorganisms on the surface of low-moisture foods, by generating active species, ultraviolet radiation, and electric fields, which helps to extend the shelf life of foods while having minimal impact on food quality. Cold plasma technology is also an effective approach to detoxify mycotoxin-contaminated low-moisture foods by degrading various mycotoxins. With the manipulation of parameters for cold plasma generation, target functional properties of food products may be obtained. In addition, the application of cold plasma in seed germination is promising and could be of great significance to the global food crisis. This review also suggests that more systematic studies are needed to employ cold plasma in the low-moisture foods industry for selected applications.

8. A Cold Plasma Technology for Ensuring the Microbiological Safety and Quality of Foods.
8. 一种确保食品微生物安全与质量的冷等离子体技术PMID:日期:2022-06-24Changing consumers' taste for chemical and thermally processed food and preference for perceived healthier minimally processed alternatives is a challenge to food industry. At present, several technologies have found usefulness as choice methods for ensuring that processed food remains unaltered while guaranteeing maximum safety and protection of consumers. However, the effectiveness of most green technology is limited due to the formation of resistant spores by certain foodborne microorganisms and the production of toxins. Cold plasma, a recent technology, has shown commendable superiority at both spore inactivation and enzymes and toxin deactivation. However, the exact mechanism behind the efficiency of cold plasma has remained unclear. In order to further optimize and apply cold plasma treatment in food processing, it is crucial to understand these mechanisms and possible factors that might limit or enhance their effectiveness and outcomes. As a novel non-thermal technology, cold plasma has emerged as a means to ensure the microbiological safety of food. Furthermore, this review presents the different design configurations for cold plasma applications, analysis the mechanisms of microbial spore and biofilm inactivation, and examines the impact of cold plasma on food compositional, organoleptic, and nutritional quality.

10. Teaching Engineering and Food: From Traditional Approaches to a Flipped Course on Gastronomic Engineering.
10. 工程与食品教学:从传统方法到美食工程翻转课堂PMID:日期:2021-03-11Understanding concepts of food engineering (FE) is fundamental for professionals in the discipline, necessary for food scientists, appealing to non-food science students, and valuable for curious cooks. The challenge of teaching FE is delivering meaningful learning outcomes to the different backgrounds, motivations, and interests of the audiences. This article delves into the origins of FE in academia and the influence on teaching of an expanding food processing industry. Current trends demand a FE education with a wider scope, focused on consumer needs and wants that convey elements of food product design, sustainability, innovation, and culinary applications, among others. Although the core concepts of FE have remained practically the same, new teaching methodologies call for expanded computational abilities, ample access to online contents, and active learning, student-centered approaches. As a case study, we describe the implementation of an elective flipped classroom course on engineering, science, and gastronomy for undergraduate students that include in-class demonstrations by chefs.
