Pressure-driven membrane processes for food protein, 22 – 23 March 2022
Welcome to this both practical and theoretical course at the pilot plant at LTH Food Technology
The course will introduce you to the fundamentals of the membrane technology, its applications and best practices. It will provide the participants hand-on experience during lab and pilot scale experiments. There is no need to have a background within Food Science in order to attend as the level will be tailored to the people attending.
This will be a unique chance to learn more about membrane technology and to ask all the questions you might have to our experts. In addition, you will have the opportunity to meet other companies, academics, and students interested in this field.
The course is free of charge for however it will render a de minimis value. For detailed schedule, se below
To sign up, please use the following link – Sign up
A common dinner will be arranged for all participants of the course
Please note: Accommodation has to be arranged by the participants themselves.
The 2-days course will be provided in a co-operation of the Department of Food Technology, Engineering and Nutrition together with the Membrane Group at Lund University.
