| book description |

Climate change, resource depletion, food insecurity, and increasing environmental concerns have accelerated the need for resilient and sustainable food systems. This book presents an interdisciplinary perspective on emerging technologies, innovative processing methods, and policy frameworks that support the transition toward circular and climate-resilient food systems. The book explores recent advances in agro-food waste valorization, green extraction technologies, microbial bioprocessing, renewable bioenergy, intelligent food packaging, nanotechnology, AI-enabled food safety, blockchain-based traceability, sustainable supply chains, and water- and energy-efficient food processing. Dedicated chapters discuss bioactive compound recovery, prebiotics from food waste, engineered nanomaterials for food safety, eco-friendly packaging, bio-based materials, fermentation technologies, and circular bioeconomy strategies. International case studies, startup innovations, industrial practices, and sustainability policies bridge scientific research with commercial implementation. Unlike conventional food sustainability books, this volume integrates scientific innovation, industrial translation, policy perspectives, and digital technologies within a single reference. Contributions from internationally recognized researchers provide readers with practical knowledge applicable to academia, research institutions, industry, and government organizations. The book supports Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by promoting low-carbon technologies, resource-efficient processing, and zero-waste food systems. It serves as a comprehensive reference for researchers, postgraduate students, professionals, entrepreneurs, and policymakers working to develop sustainable, resilient, and circular food systems for future generations.
