Head of group: PhD. Nguyen Ngoc Hoang

 
The specialized group of Process and Equipment for Biotechnology & Food Technology, formerly known as the Department of Food Machinery and Equipment, was established in 1966, under the Faculty of Food Engineering, Hanoi University of Science and Technology. Through 60 years of striving and growing up, the Department has trained many generations of mature majors and currently hold important responsibilities in the national economy.
Currently, students in this major are not only equipped with in-depth knowledge of calculations and design of hydro-mechanical processes and equipment, heat transfer, mass transfer, and refrigeration systems but are also equipped with Knowledge is essential to be able to integrate modern programmable automatic control (PLC) systems and computerized SCADA data processing monitoring control systems. When graduating, young engineers can easily find jobs with attractive income.
In addition to teaching and training, the professional group also participates in scientific research and technology transfer to production facilities in the fields of food processing, biology, pharmaceutical and chemical industries. , designs and manufactures a variety of machines and equipment, from simple and effective machines for rural areas to machines and equipment for industrial-scale lines.
The name of the professional group has changed many times as follows:
Department of Food Machinery (before 2004)
Department of Machinery and Automation of Biotechnology and Food Technology (2004 – 2010)
Department of Biotechnology Equipment Process - Food Technology (2011 - 2023)
