Course description
In order to understand and control processing operations in food manufacture, phenomena occurred in food manufacturing equipment such as flux of food, balance and transfer for both mass and heat should be comprehended in a quantitative way. This class will learn balance of mass and heat, basic theory of transfer phenomena ( ex. flow, heat transfer, diffusion), kinetics of chemical reaction and sterilization in foods, and fundamental of food refrigeration. In addition, the quantitative risk assessment, which is a typical method for quantitative estimation of food safety, will be also referred. The first half of the lecture will be an overview of the faculty members, and the second half will be a case study in which issues will be set and the solutions will be addressed.
Expected Learning
The goal is to comprehensively learn from the basics to applications related to food manufacturing.
The following individual goals are set.
1) Acquire the idea of improving efficiency in the food manufacturing process.
2) Understand management related to safety, security and food hygiene.
3) Understand the kinetics of sterilization and be able to perform simple sterilization calculations.
5) Explain the principle of food freezing operation.
6) Understand the principle of food risk assessment and be able to calculate simple risks.

Message from instructor(s)
It is also an important lecture content as a basis in the manufacturing of food, chemical products, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and biotechnology. In order to deepen the understanding, we plan to incorporate exercises as much as possible into the lessons. Case studies will be conducted face-to-face. I think that it will help you to understand the contents if you thoroughly review using the assignments.
