The required functionalities can be conveniently achieved by physical methods that are less expensive and more environmentally friendly. In the second edition, chapters are updated according to the recent research progress. Three new chapters are added including pulsed electric fields, dry heating and physical treatments that produce chemical changes. Chapter one is rewrote into three individual chapters including Molecular Structure of Starch, Granular Structure of Starch and Physicochemical Properties of Starch, aiming to help the readers better understand the structure of starch.
