Food packaging plays a vital role in providing protection to food at every stage of production while maintaining its nutritive value. While conventional plastic packaging technology effectively protects food quality, the massive accumulation of plastic waste drastically contributes to environmental pollution, causing death of marine as well as terrestrial life forms.

The use of biodegradable plastic or edible packaging has transformed the food packaging industry with increased hope for a better green tomorrow. This volume, Advances in Sustainable Food Packaging Technology, investigates the recent innovations in active, intelligent, and smart packaging systems that embrace packaging potential to not only provide protection to food but can also improve nutritive value, reduce contamination by releasing antimicrobials, and provide real-time status of food quality. This volume discusses the leading features of food storage, management, and food packaging. The sections of the book address emerging and advanced approaches in packaging of foods, which discusses novel food packaging and related innovations and trends; nanotechnology-based improvements in food packaging, which illustrates the novel nanotechnology-based application to extemporize food packaging techniques; and biodegradation and bio-based approaches for management of plastic waste, which deals with management, disposal, and degradation of food waste and its packaging.
