Entropy has always been taught as a measure of the disorder in a system containing energy or information. In this definition the less ordered any system is, the greater is its entropy or disorganization. Of course this concept has always been useful in science, communications and other fields of study, but it can and should also be applied in business applications, including the areas of quality and food safety.
When we apply the general concept of entropy to almost any natural process, the tendency of these natural processes is to increase entropy, that is, to move to a state of greater disorder. This tendency, according to the experts, occurs because there are many more random arrangements possible than ordered arrangements for all of the various parts of any system.
