Food Engineering and Technology: A Practice Book deals with objective type questions and answers. The book is aimed to provide number of questions related to almost all the main aspects of the Food Technology. Efforts have been made to cover wide range of topics in accordance to the syllabus of various competitive examinations like JRF, SRF, ARS, GATE, etc. It is expected that the book will be much sought by the students of Food Science/Technology/Engineering and related disciplines who can prepare themselves for both written as well as oral examinations. At the same time, this can be used as a readily available handbook for quick reference by practicing researchers/technologists and engineers. Besides faculty members involved in teaching Food Technology will find the book useful as a good question bank.
