General Processing Lab

This flexible space is designed to facilitate small-scale processing of a broad range of food products, and is equipped with nine mobile, stainless steel tables/workspaces (6' x 2.5'), which may also be removed to accommodate setup of a small processing line as needed. There is a utility adapter station (equipped with natural gas hook-ups and variable electric power options) that allows for specialized processing equipment to be moved in and out of the space based on project needs, as well as an adjacent storage room for equipment stowage. 

The facility is wash-down in nature, and is equipped with spray hoses (hot water, foam, sanitizer) for cleaning and sanitation. The space is utilized for instructional purposes (Food Processing, Food Engineering, Food Product Development courses), accommodating up to 20 students at a time.
