Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Wine fermentations are unique in the value of initial grapes, the seasonal nature of the harvesting and primary fermentations that are characterized by the natural variation in the composition, pH and the redox potential of the grape juice. Traditionally, the modeling of these fermentations has been more challenging than for other ethanol fermentations, and several alternative mathematical descriptions have been presented. The control of wine fermentations has typically been for constant temperature and, more recently, the redox potential, and intervention as well as alternative control strategies have emerged to optimize wine quality, energy, and other resources. This volume aims to provide a collection and review of the range of models, control strategies, and optimization approaches that are currently available and being developed for commercial wine fermentations.
As a highly regarded researcher in the field, we would like to invite you to consider submitting one paper to this Special Issue.
