Scientific training center of fermentation products production
A successful example of effective interaction between the university and industrial enterprises of Kazakhstan is "Scientific training center of fermentation products production" created on the basis of technopark of "ATU" JSC with the sponsorship of "Efes Kazakhstan" JSC IE.
"Efes Kazakhstan" supported both the renovation of the premises and the purchase of a unique experimental Micro-brewery type MB75 (Czech Republic) for beer preparation (mini-brewery) and auxiliary equipment.
Micro-brewery Micro-brewery type MB75
The brewing process of automatic laboratory microbrewery is mounted in a single frame. The productivity of the brewer is 8 hl of wort per cooking.
The monoblock of the cooking order includes:
- mash-mash vat;
- filter tank/wirpool;
- steam generator;
- wort cooler;
The next node, without which brewing is impossible, is the fermentation tanks.
Fermentation tanks are also mounted on a single frame and include:
- 4 CCT (cylindrical-conical tanks) with a capacity of 8 hl each, insulated, cooled, equipped with a temperature control system;
- glycol plant.
Thus, students have the opportunity to consolidate their knowledge by applying the latest brewing technologies: to prepare both ordinary beer and develop special varieties. This approach to training will allow graduates to approach their professional activities as ready-made specialists.
The main task of educational and scientific center is to involve students in practical experience, to arouse young people's interest in new scientific knowledge that goes beyond the basic educational programs.
Professional technologies of the highest category of leading enterprises of Kazakhstan and foreign countries will conduct training workshops and seminars on the production of soft drinks for students.
The microbrewery is a key factor in driving innovation in Kazakhstan's brewing industry. The practical work of students on this equipment will allow you to track all the processes of brewing production from the crushing of malt to the output of the final product.
Laboratory classes for students of the specialty 5B072800 – "Technology of processing industries" of the educational trajectory "Technology of fermentation production and winemaking" studying the disciplines "Technology of malting", "Technology of brewing production", "Techno-chemical control of fermentation production and winemaking" are held in the workshop, as the conditions of technopark are as close as possible to the production conditions. Since the opening of the workshop, more than 60 students have acquired practical skills in the production of foam drinks.
On the basis of this equipment, young scientists of University conducted a number of significant scientific and experimental works:
- candidate of biological sciences, associate professor Baigaziyeva G.I., PhD Bayazitova M.M., master's student Madet G. "Research of malting properties of triticale grain and development of technology for a new beer";
- PhD Kekibayeva A.K., master Rasulova M., master's student Abdushukurov Zh. "Development of special purpose beer technology with low gluten content" and etc.
Scientific and research work of students, master's students and doctoral students
