Upcoming Short Courses
This 3-day course covers the principles of extrusion, the design of extrusion processes for human food products, as well as how the formulation interacts with the extrusion process. Principles learned will be demonstrated using a streamed video. The course is relevant to all types of extruded foods - breakfast cereals, snacks, texturised proteins, pasta etc.
Drying is one of the most common operations in food and feed production. Yet it is often poorly understood and inefficient. This short course in Drying Technology combines the practical perspective of experienced industry professionals with the in-depth technical knowledge of drying processes.
This 3-day course covers the principles of extrusion and the design of extrusion processes for aquatic feeds, as well as how the formulation interacts with the extrusion process. Principles learned will be demonstrated using the extruder in the Laboratorio de Nutrición y Fisiología de Peces pilot plant.
Los 3 días de curso cubrirán los principios de extrusión y el diseño de los procesos de extrusión para alimentación acuícola. Además de, cómo la formulación interactúa con el proceso de extrusión. Todos los principios aprendidos se verán demostrados utilizando el extrusor del Departamento de Ciencias Agropecuarias y Acuícolas.
This course in Extrusion Scale-Up and Process Transfer builds on information presented in our 3 day extrusion courses. It covers techniques to scale-up an extrusion process - eg from pilot scale to production scale - or to transfer a process from one type of extruder to another. The extruders may be either the same or different makes of extruder.
Este curso sobre escalamiento y transferencia de procesos de extrusión se basa en los contenidos impartidos en nuestros programas intensivos de tres días sobre extrusión. Está diseñado para enseñar técnicas específicas que permiten escalar un proceso de extrusión (por ejemplo, de una escala piloto a una escala de producción) o transferirlo entre distintos tipos de extrusoras, ya sean de la misma marca o de fabricantes diferentes.
