1. Dynamically predicted shelf-life service : Exploring and evaluating a potential sustainable food supply chain innovation
Sammanfattning : Roughly one third of all the food produced worldwide goes to waste. The global goals for sustainable development set by the United Nations in 2015 call for a 50% reduction of food waste per capita by 2030. We thus face several major food waste challenges that need academic and practical attention. LÄS MER
2. Food traceability in regulated fresh food supply chains with an emphasis on the Swedish fishing industry
Sammanfattning : Food traceability is gaining increased attention in food companies and governmental authorities. This is because of the increase in legal and consumer requirements on ensuring food safety, quality and preservation of living resources. These requirements especially apply to the management of food traceability in regulated fresh food supply chains. LÄS MER
3. Reducing the environmental impact of food products logistics systems
Sammanfattning : This thesis addresses how to reduce two types of environmental impact generated in logistics systems: transport’s impact on climate and food waste. In mitigating both these types of environmental impact, actors in food supply chains (FSC)—producers, wholesalers, and retailers—play important roles, for both causes of environmental impacts and improvement actions to moderate them emerge within their logistics systems.

4. Traceability in food supply chains - Beyond food safety
Sammanfattning : The former close relation between producer and consumer has gradually disappeared in the industrialisation and globalisation of the food industry. As a result a need for traceability has emerged. LÄS MER
5. Faba bean foods: Structure and texture : Evaluation of faba bean component behaviours in different product matrices
Sammanfattning : Faba bean (Vicia faba minor) is a cool-climate crop that could serve as a locally sourced sustainable ingredient in transition towards a more plant-based diet in temperate regions. Poor texture is one of the main aversion factors of plant-based foods, so this thesis characterised the functionality of faba bean components and their effect on structure and texture in different food matrices.
