Thermal and Nonthermal Encapsulation Methods

Prof. Magdalini K. Krokida is Associate Professor at the School of Chemical Engineering of NTUA. She has been a member of the Laboratory of Process Analysis and Design since 2002. Her field of expertise covers design and optimization of physical processes, design and development of new products (especially foods), determination of the thermophysical properties of materials, as well as evaluation of the economic and environmental impact of several products and processes. Prof. Krokida has a considerable publishing activity, including 2 books, 7 chapters in international publications and more than 100 articles in international peer-reviewed journals, with more than 3000 citations. She has participated in numerous research projects, both as a scientific advisor and as a researcher. She is a reviewer of 10 international journals and has participated as a member of the organizing committee in several scientific congresses. Since 2010, she has been a representative of Greece at the International Scientific Committee of Drying (EFCF Working Party on Drying) and is an ambassador of Global Harmonization Initiative (GHI) in Greece.
