We study bioreactors with free and immobilized enzymes by using both experimental and modeling approaches. Our interest is in wine treatment, production of sugars and hydrolysis of proteins.
We are interested in electrodialysis with monopolar membranes applied to the recovery of fermentation products, food desalting, fruit juice deacidification and peptide separation.
We develop empirical, semi-empirical and deterministic models for the description of unit operations and processes of food and biotechnology interest.
We investigate the production of medical foods with customized nutritional and sensory properties by using cold extrusion 3D printing.
We are interested in the application of dynamic and optical tensiometers in food and beverages.
