It traces the evolution of technological innovations leading to today’s continuous production lines and provides detailed descriptions and the characteristics and operation of industrial equipment used in dry pasta manufacturing. The book also introduces mathematical models that relate processing conditions, particularly during drying, to product performance. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eScience and Technology of Dry Pasta Production\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e examines the quality attributes of both dry and cooked pasta, with particular attention to the physicochemical mechanisms that occur during dough formation, drying and cooking\u003cspan style=\"color: #0e2841; mso-themecolor: text2;\"\u003e. A central focus is on the effect of raw materials and processing conditions on product quality and cooking behavior, including a quantitative evaluation of drying conditions for both short and long pasta produced under low and high temperature regimes. In this context, the book combines clear and accessible explanations with the introduction of mathematical models for drying kinetics and dryer performance, providing valuable analytical tools that support process design, optimization, and industrial decision-making. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; color: #0e2841; mso-themecolor: text2; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eThree appendices complement the main text by introducing basic and essential concepts in food chemistry, psychrometry, drying, and rheology, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eoffering readers useful foundations to fully engage with the material.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eThe content is presented with clarity and accessibility in mind, making the book a valuable resource for a wide audience, from students in food science or food engineering to professionals involved in the operation, innovation and management of dry pasta production.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlfredo Calvelo is a Member at Academia Nacional de Ciencias Exactas, Físicas y Naturales in Buenos Aires, Argentina and Osvaldo H.
