The use of technology or engineering is experienced in the food industry in several ways. It entails methods that are directed towards enhancing the product, safety and eventually the consumption of food in all aspects. Here are the main objectives of food science technology.

1. Food Preservation:

What is food waste technology? For instance, it is the application of canning, freezing and other means apart from drying to enhance the safe shelf extensions of perishables. Apart from the utmost importance in preventing food spoilage, and increasing the vol and taste of the food.

Reducing Infestation/ Microbiology of Food: This aspect of food technology prevents any biological, chemical or physical hazards to the final food product by promoting a clean environment and use of modern techniques like sterilization and pastuerization.

3. Food Processing:
Food processing techniques enable the food products to be of impressive quality: Food processing methods like milling, grinding and mixing improve the quality, flavor and appearance of the food products.

Value Addition: Raw materials are converted into processed goods of varying shapes such as processed meat, tin vegetables, baked…

Food technology advancement: New Technology in Food Products: New Food Products such as functional food, vegetarian food, and non-dairy meat are being created by Food Technologists.

Product Improvement: Improvements in all elements of existing food products as improvements over older versions due to constant research and development are made.

5. Sustainable Food Ageing:

Reducing Waste: With time as food engineering is improving thanks packaging, storage and distribution it will develop more food that will not be wasted.
Environmentally Friendly Farming: In as much as food technology has aided the quest for better farming practices it has also helped create more innovative non harmful methods of farming.

Food technology, therefore, provides a solution to and fulfills the modern world’s demand for safe, healthy, and enough food supply to its population.’
