Project engineering and management.Food manufacturing has evolved over the centuries from kitchen industries to modern, sophisticated production operations. A typical food factory includes the food processing and packaging lines, the buildings and exterior landscaping, and the utility-supply and waste-treatment facilities. As a single individual is unlikely to possess all the necessary skills required to facilitate the design, the task will undoubtedly be undertaken by an interdisciplinary team employing a holistic approach based on a knowledge of the natural and biological sciences, most engineering disciplines, and relevant legislation. In addition, every successful project requires a competent project manager to ensure that all tasks are completed on time and within budget. This Handbook attempts to compress comprehensive, up-to-date coverage of these areas into a single volume. The multi-disciplinary nature of the subject matter should facilitate more informed communication between individual specialists on the team. It should also provide useful background information on food factory design for a wider range of professionals with a more peripheral interest in the subject: for example, process plant suppliers, contractors, HSE specialists, retailers, consultants, and financial institutions. Finally, it is hoped that it will also prove to be a valuable reference for students and instructors in the areas of food technology, chemical engineering, and mechanical engineering, in particular. Christopher G. J. Baker is a Chartered Chemical Engineer whose interests range from food process design to industrial drying. He worked in the UK food industry for several years before moving to the Middle East, where he was Professor of Chemical Engineering at Kuwait University. He recently returned to the UK and is currently involved in a number of consultancy assignments. .FactoriesDesigns and plansFood industry and tradeFactory managementIndustrial organizationFactoriesFood industry and trade.Factory management.Industrial organization.664.00284Baker C(Christopher)176100MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910437818403321Handbook of food factory design4197423UNINA03753nam 22006615 450 991048337050332120251230061721.03-030-61075-610.1007/978-3-030-61075-3(CKB)4100000011558547(DE-He213)978-3-030-61075-3(MiAaPQ)EBC6384543(PPN)252504461(EXLCZ)99410000001155854720201103d2021 u| 0engurnn#008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAdvances in Mobility-as-a-Service Systems Proceedings of 5th Conference on Sustainable Urban Mobility, Virtual CSUM2020, June 17-19, 2020, Greece /edited by Eftihia G.

It is especially intended to provide academicians, researchers, practitioners and decision makers with effective strategies and techniques that can support urban mobility in a sustainable way. The chapters, which report on contributions presented at the 5th Conference on Sustainable Urban Mobility, held virtually on June 17-19, 2020, from Greece, cover the thematic areas of: social networks and traveler behavior; applications of technologies in transportation and big data analytics; transport infrastructure and traffic management; and transportation modeling and impact assessment. Special attention is given to public transport and demand responsive systems, electromobility, micromobility and automated vehicles. The book addresses the challenges of the near future, highlighting the importance of knowledge transfer, and it is intended to foster communicationamong universities, industries and public administration.Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing,2194-5365 ;1278Transportation engineeringTraffic engineeringUrban economicsRenewable energy sourcesArchitectureTransportation Technology and Traffic EngineeringUrban EconomicsRenewable EnergyCities, Countries, RegionsTransportation engineering.Traffic engineering.Urban economics.Renewable energy sources.Architecture.Transportation Technology and Traffic Engineering.Urban Economics.Renewable Energy.Cities, Countries, Regions.330.91732Nathanail Eftihia G.Adamos GiannisKarakikes IoannisMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910483370503321Advances in Mobility-as-a-Service Systems2835150UNINA
