Description of modul contents
 
Module Sustainable techniques for processing of food and agro-food by-products, describes and presents the source of current information on the application of new, sustainable (advanced) processing techniques through which students will learn:

a) advanced thermal and nonthermal processing techniques in biosciences. These techniques include: electrotechnologies (cold plasma, high voltage electrical discharges, pulsed electric fields, lasers etc.), mechanical techniques (acoustic, hydrodynamic etc: high power ultrasound, low power ultrasound), cold pressure technology, advanced oxidation techniques, advanced thermal techniques, processing of subcritical and supercritical fluids, 3D printing, e-beam etc.; microwave processing, UV-C light, pulse light, pulse and oscillating magnetic fields  -  (facts about the mechanism underlying advanced thermal and nonthermal processing and features of mentioned technique, physical characteristics and mechanism of action, design and equipment of processing plants, results of new researches, implementation of laboratory research results in industrial practice in the world, application in different technological processes, and advantages and disadvantages of using of these techniques)

b) use of sustainable technologies as a processing tool for waste products (waste) from the agro-food industry (wastewater, biomass, algae, etc.), with the aim of enabling as far as possible the utilization of raw materials and the less environmental pollution and the degradation of the biostability.

c) the implementation of these techniques in industry and research - these techniques can be applied as "green technologies" for the purpose of conservation of the energy and ecological aspect (zero waste). Sustainable technologies  offer low energy consumption, low-cost production, shorter processing time and are considered to be "green technologies". Declaration - clean label, UN sustainable goals Agenda 2030

d) Food safety and quality of acquired products by consumers, and application of software in the analysis of "life cycle assessment" (quality function deployment, total quality index).

e) Direct contact with scientists from the world (using industry techniques) through e-learning and webinars

Lectures

Prof. Dr. Farid Chemat, University of Avignon, France
Prof. Giovanna Ferrari, University of Salerno, Italy

Lecture will be also supported by invited professors and scientists from the country and abroad who are related to the subject area will also participate in the course.
