Intern Process Technology – Oil Injection

La mission

The objective of this assignment is to gain a deeper understanding of the oil injection process and identify opportunities for process improvement. The products manufactured at Danone Haps consist of both a water phase and an oil phase. These phases are combined in one of the Feed Lines to create an emulsion, which is subsequently processed in the spray dryer to produce powder. During production, only one Feed Line is in operation at a time. For longer production campaigns, the process must be transferred from one Feed Line to the other. During these feed line changeovers, variations in fat content may occur. In some cases, this can result in powder that does not meet the required fat-content specification, leading to out-of-specification (OOS) product and associated production losses. We are looking for a motivated and passionate student who wants to work on a production supply point in a great team. The student will be able to work both independently and in a team. The student is studying Food Technology (or similar), is a team player and can communicate fluently in Dutch and English.
