食品科学与技术哲学博士-食品加工废料技术

污染控制以及能源和资源节约的重要性日益提高，这就要求在工业，政府和研究机构中接受过食品加工废物技术培训的人员。该领域研究的主要目标是将食品加工操作的副产品转化为可用材料。例如，已经开发出使用超滤技术的方法以浓缩干酪乳清蛋白以用作食品成分。正在开展实验，以开发将水果和蔬菜加工废料转化为燃料，化学品，生物制品和食品成分的实用方法。生物学，微生物学，化学，食品科学与技术或环境科学的背景为食品加工废物技术的研究生学习提供了良好的基础。学生应构建自己的研究生课程，以扩展其在微生物学，生物化学，分析化学，工程学以及适
The increasing importance of pollution control and energy and resource conservation has created a demand for people trained in food processing waste technology in industry, government, and research institutions. The primary objective of research in this area is to convert byproducts of food processing operations to usable materials. For example, processes using ultrafiltration technology have been developed to concentrate cheese whey proteins for use as food ingredients. Experiments are under way to develop practical methods of converting fruit and vegetable processing wastes into fuels, chemicals, biologicals, and food ingredients. A background in biology, microbiology, chemistry, food science and technology, or environmental science provides a good base for graduate study in food processing waste technology. Students should structure their graduate programs to expand their knowledge in microbiology, biochemistry, analytical chemistry, engineering, and applicable environmental or other sciences.
