Resumen
The ThinkTech! educational program will enable participants to develop skills related to novel food processing technologies focusing on technical aspects, as well as the related soft skills. Thus, participants’ critical thinking on the development of sustainable food technology solutions will be enhanced, so that they are able to appraise unintended consequences like product performance or sustainability implications.
As alternative proteins are still a growing market segment by consumer demand, food technologists are facing the challenge to adopt novel food technologies. In the online course “Alternative Proteins”, theoretical as well as practical inputs will be given in the pilot plants of DIL e.V. and Fraunhofer IGB and Fraunhofer IVV. University of Helsinki will give insights into LCA and sustainability of usage of alternative proteins. We will deal with the implementation of new technologies in companies of the food industry focusing on extrusion technologies, fermentation and fractionation processes.
The course offers two types of participation: on-site (either Quakenbrück or Stuttgart) OR fully on-line. Participants on-site can choose if they want to attend the group in Stuttgart or Quakenbrück. All presentations and demonstrations are given at one location and will be transmitted to the other location and all on-line participants.
