Next-Generation Food Enzymes

Next-Generation Food Enzymes explores advanced enzyme technologies driven by Artificial Intelligence to enhance food processing efficiency, promote sustainability, and support a circular bioeconomy through eco-friendly biocatalytic innovations. It promotes sustainable innovation by reducing resource dependency and greenhouse gas emissions associated with traditional food manufacturing. The book integrates three cutting-edge domains: artificial intelligence in enzyme design, circular bioeconomy principles, and sustainable food innovation. It systematically covers fundamental enzymology (Chapters 1- 2), technological methodologies (Chapters 3-5), practical applications in waste valorization and product development (Chapters 6-11), and forward-looking considerations including personalized nutrition and regulatory frameworks (Chapters 12-15). This comprehensive structure successfully bridges theoretical foundations with industrial implementation.Key Features:Presents cutting-edge insights into AI-driven enzyme design and its transformative role in sustainable food processingExplains how enzyme technologies contribute to the circular bioeconomy by converting food and agricultural waste into valuable productsCovers real-world case studies and practical applications of enzymes in foods such as dairy, bakery, and beveragesAnalyses the environmental and economic benefits of replacing chemical catalysts with bio-based enzyme systems
