Future Foods

Aims & Scope

Future Foods is a dedicated Journal to address the challenges of climate change and sustainability in food production.

A transformation of the way food is currently manufactured and consumed is necessary to feed an ever-growing population whilst limiting its environmental impact.

Future Foods publishes re-search that embodies the objective of developing new technologies and food sources for more sustainable food systems.

This Journal will seek contributions including, but not limited to the areas: • Clean food processing: Eco-friendly food processing technologies that require utilisation of less re-sources (raw materials, water and energy). • New food ingredients: Examples include the use of new ingredients with reduced environmental im-pact and carbon footprint such as plant- based ingredients and alternative pro-teins sources (algae, insects...), in-vitro "meat", etc. • Food sidestreams minimization and utilisation: Technologies and processes for 'whole of product' utilisation to minimise losses during food production, and utilisation of food processing by-products into new products for added value. • Innovative technologies: New technologies such as 3D printing, AI, etc. as long as it affects the envi-ronmental impact. • Sustainable packaging: Sustainable and innovative packaging solutions for the foods that can include: - Eco-design of packaging - Sustainable packaging, edible packaging - Active and intelligent packaging, nanotechnology in smart packaging - Micro and nanomaterials in sustainable food packaging - Recycling of food packaging materials. • Consumers studies: Acceptance studies and sensory analysis related to the above topics
