      Marine Chemical Resource Development

    •  Marine product is an important food resource, accounting for 16% of the world's animal protein supply (JFTC Monthly Report Online, March 2020).

       However, marine products have characteristics such as being caught in large quantities at one time, losing freshness quickly, and having components that fluctuate depending on the season and species of fish, requiring ingenuity in their preservation and processing.

       The goal of this class is to deepen students' understanding of manufacturing and processing methods used in the utilization of marine products as food and industrial raw materials, as well as separation and purification methods of useful components.
