    Aims and Objectives: 

    Objectives: The specific objectives of the course are:

    Student will earn knowledge on storage ventilation, temperature control, product arrangement, procurement schedule, LIPO –FIFO Methods, delivery and distribution, product chart, Indent issue, Quality pass system, Material specification reservation and record documentation as per FSMS, BSTI.

    Course Outcome: 

    • Student will able to know overall knowledge on food storage
    • Student will able to know overall ventilation system in a food storage
    • Student will able to know overall temperature control system in a food storage
    • Student will able to know overall Quality pass system in a food storage
    • Student will able to know overall air management system in a food storage


  • Food storage allows food to be eaten for some time after harvest rather than solely immediately. It is both a traditional domestic skill and, in the form of food logistics, an important industrial and commercial activity

    4. Air Properties or Phychrometry 






  • Psychrometricspsychrometry, and hygrometry are names for the field of engineering concerned with the physical and thermodynamic properties of gas-vapor mixtures. The term comes from the Greek psuchron (ψυχρόν) meaning "cold" and metron (μέτρον) meaning "means of measurement".

  • Modified atmosphere is the practice of modifying the composition of the internal atmosphere of a package (commonly food packages, drugs, etc.) in order to improve the shelf life.[1][2] The need for this technology for food arises from the short shelf life of food products such as meat, fish, poultry, and dairy in the presence of oxygen. In food, oxygen is readily available for lipid oxidation reactions. Oxygen also helps maintain high respiration rates of fresh produce, which contribute to shortened shelf life

  • Heat transfer is a discipline of thermal engineering that concerns the generation, use, conversion, and exchange of thermal energy between physical systems. Heat transfer is classified into various mechanisms, such as thermal conduction, thermal convection, thermal radiation, and transfer of energy by phase changes.

    • eat is transferred to and from objects -- such as you and your home -- via three processes: conduction, radiation, and convection.

      Conduction is heat traveling through a solid material. On hot days, heat is conducted into your home through the roof, walls, and windows. Heat-reflecting roofs, insulation, and energy efficient windows will help to reduce that heat conduction.

  • Ventilation is the process by which 'clean' air (normally outdoor air) is intentionally provided to a space and stale air is removed. This is the uncontrolled flow of air into a space through adventitious or unintentional gaps and cracks in the building envelope.
