-
The students obtain an insight in special topics concerning the processing of plant raw materials based on the knowledge of basic unit operations in food processing.
The students know properties and requirements related to the plant raw material and have knowledge about the possibilities for the recovery, modification and application of plant based ingredients.
The students know the interactions between material properties and the particularities of the technological processes.
Based on the content of this lecture, the students are able to follow master courses on specific aspects of plant raw material processing (e.g. brewing technology, cereal technology).
