Submission guidelines
Instructions for Authors
Types of Papers
The Review
The review should be critical and should present the state-of-the-art on the identified topic. The editors of Food Engineering Reviews are expecting manuscripts that are cover the highlights of the selected. You may include your own work when reviewing the literature. It is expected that the manuscript will be a true review and not a research article. The article should be written for people with good knowledge of food engineering but not specialized in the field of the review.

Headings
Please use no more than three levels of displayed headings.

They should not consist solely of a reference citation, and they should never include the bibliographic details of a reference. They should also not contain any figures or tables.
Footnotes to the text are numbered consecutively; those to tables should be indicated by superscript lower-case letters (or asterisks for significance values and other statistical data). Footnotes to the title or the authors of the article are not given reference symbols.

References
Citation
Cite references in the text by name and year in parentheses. Some examples:
Negotiation research spans many disciplines (Thompson 1990).
This result was later contradicted by Becker and Seligman (1996).
This effect has been widely studied (Abbott 1991; Barakat et al. 1995; Kelso and Smith 1998; Medvec et al. 1999).
Reference list
The list of references should only include works that are cited in the text and that have been published or accepted for publication. Personal communications and unpublished works should only be mentioned in the text.
Reference list entries should be alphabetized by the last names of the first author of each work.
If available, please always include DOIs as full DOI links in your reference list (e.g. “https://doi.org/abc”).
