BIAA0003-3  Food and agro-food engineering, 3rd part

Duration :  2h Th, 22h Pr
Number of credits :  
Master in Forests and natural Areas Engineering, Professional Focus, 1st yearSecond semester2
Required preliminary complements to register in the Advanced Master in Food Science and technologySecond semester2
Lecturer :  François Bera
Language(s) of instruction :  
French language
Course contents :  
Students are divided into groups of 3. Taking into account the imposed objectives, they have to : - study the operation - identify the critical parameters - develop the measurement methods - measure the operation parameters of an evaporator, a cake filtration unit, a gravity thickener, an UHT sterilizer, a disk-bowl centrifuge, a screw centrifuge.
Learning outcomes of the course :  
Strengthening through practical works, of the theoretical knouwledge of the BIAA0003-2 (https://my.ulg.ac.be/MyULg/CE/index.do?as_action=Fiche&as_id=123263&tkRfhId=1313760874530UuyEo) course, bringing students to develop their initiative. After completing the course the student is expected to be able to assess the most important unit operations involved in the biological products transformation and to quantify their different characteristics from data obtained through measurements or an experimentation designed and realised by himself.
Prerequisites and co-requisites/ Recommended optional programme components :  
Physics and mathematical course of bachelor level, in engineering sciences (first cycle) BIAA0003-2 (https://my.ulg.ac.be/MyULg/CE/index.do?as_action=Fiche&as_id=123263&tkRfhId=1313760874530UuyEo) - Agro-food engineering (part 2)
