Scientific and Practical Centre for Foodstuffs offers beverage manufacturers the ethyl alcohol production technology with differentiated separation of grain biopolymers under a commercial agreement with technical assistance, and is looking for partners to conclude a research cooperation agreement.

The technology is based on optimizing the processes of mechanical and enzymatic processing, yeast generation and fermentation; removal of a part of non-starchy polysaccharides (ballast substances) in the form of contaminated and seeded shells of grain raw materials; allows: to improve the rheological properties and increase the concentration of processed technological media by 2-4%; increase the accumulation of alcohol in a mature mash 9.0–10.0 to 10.7–11.5%, ensuring an increase in the productivity of the enterprise by 7–15%; expand the range of products for differentiated processing of grain by obtaining fodder meal used in agriculture as a feed material.

Allows to reduce the consumption of diluting enzymes by 10–15%.

In 2020, 4 agreements on scientific and technical cooperation were concluded, including 2 international agreements with a scientific organization of the People's Republic of China, 1 with a research institute of the Russian Federation. In total, there are 70 international agreements on scientific and technical cooperation with scientific organizations and universities in Kazakhstan, Russia, Ukraine, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Poland, Armenia, Sweden, Bulgaria, China. Representatives of foreign organizations take part in seminars and conferences organized by Scientific and Practical Centre for Foodstuffs. In 2020, the organization was visited by over 78 representatives of foreign organizations.

Scientific and Practical Centre for Foodstuffs occupies a leading position in the food industry due to the concentration of scientific research aimed at solving urgent problems in the development of new technologies and equipment, creating a series of new competitive food products for various population groups.

Main tasks in the field of quality:
- formation of fundamentally new methodological foundations for conducting fundamental and applied research aimed at implementing state development programs of the Republic of Belarus in the food industry;
- creation and implementation of new science-intensive and energy-saving technologies (biotechnologies) for deep processing of raw materials of plant and animal origin;
- development of a wide range of food products for functional, preventive and special purposes (including for children) that meet international standards of quality, safety and competitiveness.

The main activities of Scientific and Practical Centre for Foodstuffs:
- scientific support of technological and technical problems of improvement and reconstruction of enterprises of fruit and vegetable, starch, wine-making, alcohol, alcoholic beverages, beer and non-alcoholic, oil and fat, confectionery, sugar and other food industries in order to increase the competitiveness and quality of food products;
- creation and implementation of new technologies for deep processing of raw materials of animal and vegetable origin for the production of a wide range of food and feed;
- development of technical regulatory legal acts (STB, technical specifications, GOST, Codes of established practice, technical regulations of the Customs Union and amendments to them), technological documents (technological instructions, recipes) of food products, incl. products for functional, preventive, health-improving and special purposes (including for children) that meet international standards of quality, safety and competitiveness;
- development of technical documentation and passports for equipment, manufacturing of experimental and serial technological equipment for the food industry, machines and general-purpose equipment;
- development of technologies for storage and preparation for processing of raw materials of plant and animal origin;
development of new and revision of existing norms for the consumption of raw materials and auxiliary materials for food industry enterprises;
- carrying out certification of food and perfumery-cosmetic products, containers and packaging; assessment of production laboratories for technical competence, metrological support for the production of food industry enterprises;
- development of methods, testing to determine the quality and safety indicators of raw materials and food products, issuance of test reports.
