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

 |
| Duration : | 2h Th, 22h Pr |
 |
| Number of credits : |
|
 |
| Lecturer : | François Bera |
 |
Language(s) of instruction :
 |
| French language |
 |
Organisation and examination :
 |
| Teaching in the second semester |
 |
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 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 :
