Learning objectives
1.Bio-treatment of wastes and agro-food waste: The module "Management of waste and wastewater from the food industry" (4 CFU) provide basic notions related to the production, treatment, management, disposal and/or sustainable valorisation of waste and wastewater produced from the food industry. The module will address: the Italian framework of legislation; type, characteristics and production of waste and wastewater from food industries; chemical/physical and biological processes for the treatment of solid waste and wastewater; methods for the valorisation of waste and wastewater according with the most recent documents in the field of bio- economy and circular economy.
The module 'Microbiology for Bio-treatment of wastewater and agro-food wastes aims to provide basic notions about microbial processes useful for the bio-treatment of wastewaters as well as the basis of the microbial anaerobic digestion and composting. The exploitation of microbial metabolism for the valorisation of agro-food wastes will also be taken into consideration.
Examination methods: To pass the exam the students must show that they know:
- the basis of the legislation in this sector, definitions and nomenclature in the field of waste and wastewaters,
- the interpretation of biological and chemical-physical data,
- the main process parameters for the treatment of waste and wastewaters and the microbial mechanisms responsible for the bio-treatment of wastewaters and waste transformation.
2. Bio-treatment of waste and agro-food waste Laboratory: The laboratory activities will provide the chemical/physical and respirometric methods for the characterization of wastewater, solid waste and sewage sludge. Students will apply the notions of the theoretical course by the operation of bioreactors dedicated for the treatment of wastewater or for the production of biogas. At the same time, students will learn how to manage and monitoring the operational parameters of the bioreactor and to define mass and energy balances of the biological processes.
From the microbiological point of view, the experiences in laboratory will give the
students the opportunity to know the main methodologies for the analysis of microorganisms in active sludge and wastewaters and the main techniques for their identification in order to get a proper monitoring of the bio-treatment process, also taking into account sustainability issues.
Examination methods: The student should be able to write and manage a monitoring plain for the operational parameters of a bioreactor as well as extrapolate data necessary for driving the process. Moreover, the student should be able to manipulate microbial cells, and to apply the main techniques to quantify and identify them in a bioreactor.

Tirocinio
Il tirocinio professionalizzante è collocato al terzo anno di studio, occupandolo quasi interamente, ed è uno degli elementi caratterizzanti il corso di laurea.
Nello specifico, durante il tirocinio le studentesse e gli studenti potranno affiancare una o più figure professionali, dal Responsabile della Qualità al Responsabile della Produzione, dal Responsabile del Marketing al Responsabile degli acquisti, etc., per acquisire conoscenze e competenze utili per il successivo inserimento nel mondo del lavoro.
Il tirocinio consentirà, quindi, di applicare in un ambito produttivo reale quanto acquisito durante la formazione in aula e in laboratorio, confrontandosi con i diversi ruoli aziendali che potranno poi essere ricoperti durante la carriera lavorativa.
Le ditte che hanno espresso interesse ad ospitare i tirocinanti sono un esempio dell’ampio panorama del settore alimentare, abbracciando molteplici settori, da quello lattiero-caseario a quello dolciario, da quello dei prodotti da forno a quello dell’industria delle carni, dal settore delle bevande a quello della Grande Distribuzione Organizzata (GDO).
Per orientare la scelta di studenti e studentesse verso la realtà aziendale e la figura professionale più vicina alle specifiche preferenze e attitudini, verrà organizzato uno specifico workshop di incontro, durante il quale le aziende disponibili avranno modo di presentarsi e di conoscere i futuri tirocinanti, permettendo alle parti interessate (studente/ssa e impresa) di confrontarsi e trovare l’abbinamento migliore per soddisfare le esigenze e le aspettative di entrambi.
Di seguito si riporta l’elenco alfabetico delle aziende che, alla data odierna, hanno dato la loro disponibilità ad ospitare tirocinanti del corso di laurea ad orientamento professionale “Innovazione e sostenibilità nella produzione industriale di alimenti” (LP02).
