Study Programmes 2015-2016

BIAA0003-3

Industrial alimentary engineering and agribusiness engineering, 3e partie

Duration :

2h Th, 22h Pr

Number of credits :

Master in bioengineering : chemistry and bio-industries (120 ECTS)		2

Lecturer :

François Bera

Language(s) of instruction :

French language

Organisation and examination :

Teaching in the first semester, review in January

Units courses prerequisite and corequisite :

Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program

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.

Prerequisite knowledge and skills :

Physics and mathematical course of bachelor level, in engineering sciences (first cycle) BIAA0003-2 - Agro-food engineering (part 2)

Planned learning activities and teaching methods :

Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning) :

Lectures : 4h Practical Works : 20h
