Aim: To give the students an understanding of the interplay between raw materials, process technology, storage technology and distribution technology that is a key factor in food production of desirable quality. Through this understanding, the students are qualified to apply chemical and engineering science to problems arising from production and quality assessment of food products.
Contents: Main components of foods (carbohydrates, proteins, lipids).Raw materials and their quality (cereals, fruits and vegetables, meat, milk, egg, fish and shellfish). Food sensory quality (physical, physico-chemical, chemical and physiological aspects). Nutritional value and hygienic quality of foods.
