This thoroughly revised Second Edition begins with a brief introduction to citrus processing followed by a review of corporate and business fundamentals applied specifically to the citrus processing industry. Other items covered include the integration of computer communications, descriptions of equipment and engineering needed to put a plant together, quality control, and procedures and ramifications of juice characteristics. Includes color plates.
Consultant Kimball has substantially revised the first edition, for which he does not note a date. He expands beyond the quality control theme and uses a more holistic approach. While the first edition targeted the industrial technologist, here he addresses readers learning about citrus processing from scratch, in university classrooms, industrial laboratories, company boardrooms, or managerial offices. Among the areas he discusses are equipment, procedures, engineering, planning a facility, management principles, and innovations. He includes 16 color plates, most from manufacturers of equipment.
