Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program
Learning unit contents
This course aims to develop, through succinct presentations of industrial systems, laboratory experiments and group projets, complementary knowledges on processes applied for biological materials conservation using cooling and drying operations (*).
In the classroom
Brief presentation of drying and cooling processes applied at industrial scale
In the laboratory (mandatory participation)
Study of the components and the operation of a heat pump
Study of the components and operation of a freeze dryer
Study of the components and operation of a spray dryer
Study of the dehydration kinetics of solid materials on a fluidized bed drer
Working group (Project thematic imposed)
Five themes to be developped in small groups of students as project aiming to design a systems using cooling or drying for biological materials preseravtion.
(*) this section could be changed
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
At the end of this course the student must :
1) Know the main components of conservation processes of biological materials by cooling and drying
2) Be able to quantify parameters related to the design or operation of conservation processes that use cooling or drying
3) be able to collect data related to cooling and drying systems operation through the bibliographic research, the development of theoretical models or the experimentation carried out by himself
5) be abble to write the terms of references for a specification for the disign of cooling or drying systems

Adaptation of teaching commitments following the COVID-19 pandemic for the Aug-Sept 2020 session
Assessment subjects
The exam will include theoretical questions and problem-solving exercises.
The exercises will be based on concepts presented during the theoretical course, the pactical laboratory work and the presentation of group projects.
During the exam presentation, students could use their own form including formula: a double-sided sheet.
Assessment methods
Due to the current health situation, the written exam will use a virtual way with the Collaborate tool of the e-Campus platform and will count for 100% of the final score.
At the end of the exam, students will be asked to post the file(s) presenting their resolutions on the e-Campus platform and send an electronic copy of them by e-mail to the two co-teacher of the course.
