Scope
Sustainable Food Processing, a specialty section of Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, publishes original, peer reviewed research on the technological development of the food industry.
Only by addressing innovation will it be possible for the food industry to answer to the higher expectations and demand from consumers. To do so, the food industry must evolve technologies that provide improved food products for human health and well-being, including minimizing degradation of nutrients and incorporating new valuable materials into processed foods. Moreover, these objectives must be fulfilled by complying with another key issue in food (and industrial) processing – sustainability – such that the circular economy becomes a reality in the food industry. Achieving sustainability in this sector requires more efficient and environmentally-friendly food processing technologies together with waste minimization and recovery and incorporation of food by-products in the food processing chain.
Processing must also comply with extremely rigorous food safety challenges, making the development of rapid and high throughput safety evaluation techniques of the highest relevance for the evaluation of risk management in the food industry.
The Sustainable Food Processing section welcomes high quality and original contributions on novel technologies for food processing and preservation, functional foods, active and functional packaging, process integration in food processing, novel technologies for food waste and by-product processing, food waste and by-products for the production of bioactives, food processing for increased food safety, and risk management in food processing.

Sustainable Food Processing welcomes submissions of the following article types: Editorial, General Commentary, Hypothesis and Theory, Methods, Mini Review, Opinion, Original Research, Perspective, Policy and Practice Reviews, Policy Brief, Review, Specialty Grand Challenge, Systematic Review and Technology Report.
All manuscripts must be submitted directly to the section Sustainable Food Processing, where they are peer-reviewed by the Associate and Review Editors of the specialty section.
Articles published in the section Sustainable Food Processing will benefit from the Frontiers impact and tiering system after online publication. Authors of published original research with the highest impact, as judged democratically by the readers, will be invited by the Chief Editor to write a Frontiers Focused Review - a tier-climbing article. This is referred to as "democratic tiering". The author selection is based on article impact analytics of original research published in all Frontiers specialty journals and sections. Focused Reviews are centered on the original discovery, place it into a broader context, and aim to address the wider community across all of Sustainable Food Systems.
