Learning outcomes of the learning unit
After completing the course the student is expected to be able to assess the most important unit operations and process involved in the biological products transformation.
Laboratories will bring students to develop their initiative through practical works conducted on pilot material.
After completing the course the student is expected to be able to assess the unit operations involved in the biological products transformation and to quantify their different characteristics.
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
Physics and mathematical course of bachelor level, in engineering sciences (bioengineering)
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
Lectures
Exercises
practical works :
Experiments are conducted in the pilot hall of Foodislife
Students are divided into groups, and 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 several equipments used in food technology, for example :
an evaporator, a cake filtration unit, an UHT sterilizer, a screw centrifuge...
