The course will focus on calculations and modeling of relationships and parameters used in food technologies.
Unit operations involved in food production will be discussed in detail. Special variables will be addressed and their interrelationships, which are used and required in practice, will be proposed. The course will also cover the principles of process control and the use of control systems in food production.
