Let's Learn Food Science - Thermal Process Computer Modelling
At the end of this video you will be able to:
-Review D, Z and T reference values
-Use an industry standard tool for estimating log reduction of a thermal process
-Utilize the tool for both R&D and Quality Control type applications in food processing
As stated in the video, using computer modeling for food safety evaluation should be done by trained individuals. People learning and applying this skill for the first time should get guidance from an experienced process validation specialist food scientist to ensure the technique is being applied correctly and not putting product and consumers at risk.
The industry standard tool demonstrated in this video is the NAMIF Process Lethality Spreadsheet available here - https://meatpoultryfoundation.org/con...
