7. HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point)- HACCP means the quality product so
this quality policy make safe product for the consumer. The concept of HACCP is to provide
systematic approach to controlling safety hazards in a food process. Hazard analysis of
specific food from harvest to consumption and identification critical control points and
application the criteria necessary to prevent eliminate of reduce to acceptable levels the
hazards in the entire food production sequence for specific food.
8. GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices)- GMP is a term that is renowned for the control
and management of manufacturing and quality control testing foods and pharmaceutical
products. Since sampling product will statistically only ensure that the samples themselves
are suitable for use and end point testing relies on sampling. GMP takes the holistic approach
of regulating the manufacturing testing environment it self. An extremely important of GMP
is documentation every aspect of the process activities and operations involved with product
manufacture. It the documentation showing how the product was make and tested is not
correct and in order, then the product does not meet the required specification and is
considered adulterated GMP requires that all manufacturing and testing equipment has been
qualified as suitable for use and that all operational methodologies and procedures utilized in
the food manufacturing process have been validated to demonstrate the they perform their
supposed function (s).

PACKAGING
Packaging Materials used in the company
1) Polypropylene
2) Polyester
3) Polystyrene
4) Paper board
5) Glass
6) Tin cans
1) Polypropylene: It is a homogenous, unprinted film of pure polypropylene or a
copolymer of polypropylene and others such as ethylene. The properties include:
a. Low density
b. Low water vapour transpiration rate
c. Good Stiffness
d. Resistance to cracking
e. High tensile strength
f. Heat seal ability
g. Polypropylene may be used for shrink wrapping or heating in bags.
2) Polyester: polyester belongs to the class of condensation polymers which is formed
by eliminating a small molecule usually, water from two different reactants leaving
binding sites which enable two reactants to join together into long chains. The most
important polyester in packaging is polyethylene terphthalate (PET). It is an important
packaging resin primarily because it combines at very high temperature, excellent
mechanical properties with inertness to the film. The oriented films and sheaths are
very clear, have excellent strength and toughness and posses oxygen and carbon
dioxide barrier properties than any of other films

3) Paperboard and fiberboard - Paperboard is thicker, flexible and used for wrap
and bags. Fiberboard is made by combining layers of strong papers and is used for
constructing secondary shipping cartons. The material used to construct shipping
cartons is referred as corrugated paper board because of wavy inner layer of paper
board. Kraft paper is the strongest of the papers and in its unbleached form is
commonly used. Acid treatment of paper pulp modifies the cellulose and gives rise to
water and oil resistant parchments of considerable wet strength. These papers grease
proof or glassine papers and are characterized by long wood pulp fibers which impart
increased physical strength.
4) Polystyrene- Polystyrene is a non flexible polymer film of styrene- acrylonitrile
copolymer is made flexible by biaxial orientation of its molecule. Orientation is
produced by stretching under elevated temperatures. Polystyrene is widely used in
form of disposable cups and plates as well as in films and containers for packaging.
Polystyrene is amorphous, clear hard, brittle, low strength material with a relatively
low melting point and poor impact resistance.
5) Glass- Glass is one of the oldest packaging materials used. Its still very popular
because of its certain advantages:
a) Chemically inert
b) Transparent
c) Offers excellent barrier property
d) Highly impermeable to oxygen to oxygen, moisture, and other gases
e) Low cost
f) Rigidity
But it also certain limitations
a) Bulky
b) Breakage during filling, transportation and storage.
6) Tin cans- Tin plate cans continue to be the major work horse for packaging of
processed foods. They have distinct advantages namely: reliability, safety, pilfer
proofness recyclability, strength to withstand transportation, lower energy
consumption, retortability under high temperature conditions, high speed filling,
closing etc.
Significant advances have taken place in field of organic coatings used in
coatings used for protection for protection and wide choice of resins including epoxy;
acrylic, polyester, vinyl etc. are now available.
Peelable Easy open ends for Metal Cans
Peelable Easy open ends for food cans are rapidly finding their way into
markets all over the world. There are various versions available which enable easy
opening, reducing costs, faster production, and acceptable integrity levels.

outlets. It follows the FIFO (first in first out) method.
QUALITY TESTING
1) TESTING OF MILK
I) Fat test (Gerber Method)
• Take 10 ml H2SO4 in a standard milk butyrometer (0-10%).
• Add 10.75ml of milk; pour it slowly through walls of butyrometer.
• Add 1ml of amyl alcohol.
• Shake it carefully until milk is dissolved.
• Centrifuge butyrometer in centrifuge machine for 1-2 minutes.
• Take out butyrometer and read the scale.
II) Acidity Test
• Take 9 ml of milk in a clean flask.
• Add 3-4 drops of phenolphthalein indicator.
• Titrate it against 0.1 N NaOH.
• Pink colour indicates the end of titration.
Acidity as lactic acid (%) = 9 X V1 X N = V/10
10*0.9
V1-volume of N/9 NaOH
N – Normality of NaOH
III) SNF Content
• Corrected Lactometer Reading(CLR) = Lactometer reading (LR)+ (T-27) x
0.2
• SNF =CLR/4 +0.25x Fat+0.6

IV) Adulteration Test
a) Urea Test
• Take 2 ml of milk in test tube
• Add 2 ml of tetra dimethyl 1 amino benzaldehyde (urea reagent)
• Appearance of yellow colour shows presence of urea.
b) Starch test
• Take 5 ml of milk in a test tube.
• Add few drops of iodine solution
• Appearance of blue- black colour indicates presence of starch.
c) Neutralizer test
• Take 2 ml of milk in a test tube
• Add 2 ml of neutralizer.
• Mix it properly.
Appearance of pink colour indicates presence of neutralizer.
2) TESTING OF KHOA, DHAP AND PANEER
1. Fat Test
Fat percentage in khoya, dhap is an important parameter of testing
quality of Khoya because the final product depend on the quality of Khoya
used.
• Take 10 ml H2SO4 in a standard milk butyrometer (0-40%).
• Add 3g of sample (khoa, dhap or paneer)
• Pour boiled water slowly through walls of butyrometer.
• Add 1ml of amyl alcohol.
• Shake it carefully until sample is dissolved.
• Centrifuge butyrometer in centrifuge machine for 1-2 minutes.
• Take out butyrometer and read the scale.
II) Moisture Content
• Take a moisture dish & put a glass rod in it and weigh.(A)
• Take 3 g khoa or dhap
• Add small amount of distilled water &slurry
• Keep in oven at 120° C for 2 hrs
• Take out and keep in desiccator for cooling
• Weigh(B)
% Moisture = (A-B) x 100/wt. of sample
III) Butyro-refractometer reading
• Take 20 g of khoa or dhap in a beaker.

• Keep beaker in microwave for extraction of fat.
• Maintain the temperature of butryo-refractometer to 40° C using hot water.
• Place 1-2 drops of oil extracted on lower prism of butryo-refractometer
• Note the reading
2) TESTING OF OILS AND FAT
The quality of fresh oil and processed oil depend on some factors like
peroxide value, fresh fatty acid content, iodine value, Moisture Content etc. All tests
are performed in every receiving of fresh oil from supplier. Peroxide value
determination is done in every hour of frying in process.
I) Moisture Content
• Take moisture dish &weigh it
• Weigh around 5 g of sample(A)
• Keep in oven for 120° C for 2 hrs
• Take out sample and let it cool in desiccator
• Weigh again(B)
% Moisture = (A-B) x 100
Wt. of sample
II) Peroxide value
Principle: The degree of oxidation that has taken place in a fat or oil can be
expressed in terms of peroxide value. When the double bonds of unsaturated fats
become oxidized, peroxides are among the oxidation product formed. Under the
acidic conditions these peroxides can liberate iodine from potassium iodine added to
the system. The amount of iodine liberate is then a measure of peroxide content,
which correlates the degree of oxidation already experienced by the fat.
• Weigh 5 g of sample in a clean dry flask.
• Add 30 ml of chloroform & acetic acid mixture (2:3)
• Add 0.5 ml of saturated potassium iodide solution and shake it for 1-2 minutes.
• Add 30 ml of distilled water to it
• Add 4-5 drops of starch indicator
• Titrate it against .01N sodium thiosulphate
• Titrate till blue black colour disappears
• Note titer value.
PV= Titre value x 10
Wt. of sample
Inference :- Oil Sample having PV up to or below 3 is acceptable. Oil which gives PV
beyond 3 is immediately replace with fresh oil.
III) Free Fatty Acid (FFA)

Principle: Fats are degraded by the process of hydrolysis, which in the
presence of moisture splits its triglycerides into their basic components of glycerol
and free fatty acid. This type of deterioration refers to hydrolytic rancidity which is
favored by moisture, high temperature and lipolytic enzymes. Free fatty acid content
is determined on the basis number of milligrams of sodium hydroxide necessary to
neutralize 20g of fat or oil.
• Weigh 20 g of sample
• Add 50 ml of neutralized alcohol
• Then put flask on hot plate for boiling
• After boiling add 3-4 drops of phenolphthalein indicator
• Titrate with 0.1 N NaOH
• Titrate till pink colour appears
• Note titre value
FFA = Titre value x 28.2(oleic acid)
Wt of sample
Procedure for perpetration of neutralized ethanol:
Take required amount of ethanol in a flask and add 5-6 drops of
phenolphthalein indicator. Titrate it against 0.1 N NaOH till light pink color is
obtained and retained.
Inference: for processed oil maximum % FFA content permitted is 1%
For refined oil maximum % FFA content permitted is 0.1%
IV) Butryo-refractometer reading
• Maintain the temperature of butryo-refractometer to 40° C using hot water.
• Place 1-2 drops of oil extracted on lower prism of butryo-refractometer
• Note the reading
V) TBHQ Test
• Take 20 ml of sample
• Add 3.5 ml of dim ethylamine
• Add 10 ml of methanol
• Shake it 2-3 min
• Presence of brick layer indicates presence of antioxidant TBHQ in sample.
VI) Cloud Point
Principle: It is a test which measure the temperature for a melted fat to go to
the crystalline state by observing the point ay which cloudiness of the fat is complete
this test is generally done to determine the effect of storage condition on fats and oils.

• Take 50-60 ml of oil in beaker
• Put in a container containing ice cubes
• Then put a thermometer in a beaker
• Shake it with thermometer
• Note the point where thermometer is not seen from outside.
• Note the temperature
VII) Iodine Value
Principle: the degree of instauration of the fatty acid in fat and oil can be
quantitatively expressed by the iodine value of the fat. Iodine value refers the numbers
of grams of iodine absorbed by 100g of fat. Since the iodine value reacts at the site of
unsaturation, higher the iodine value the greater the degree of instauration in the fat.
Blank Titration
• Take an empty cleaned dried Stoppard flask.
• Add 25 ml of CCl4 and 25 ml of wijs solution
• Keep it in dark for ½ hr
• Then add 15 ml of 10% KI solution and 100 ml of distilled water.
• Titrate it against 0.1 N sodium thiosulphate till colour changes to pale red.
• Add 2-3 drops of starch indicator and titrate till white colour appears
• Note the Titre value.
2) Sample Titration
• Take an empty cleaned dried stoppered flask.
• Weigh 0.3- 0.5 g of sample
• Add 25 ml of CCl4 and 25 ml of wijs solution
• Keep it in dark for ½ hr
• Then add 15 ml of 10% KI solution and 100 ml of distilled water.
• Titrate it against 0.1 N sodium thiosulphate till colour changes to pale red.
• Add 2-3 drops of starch indicator and titrate till white colour appears
• Note the Titre value
Iodine value = Titre value (Blank- sample)x normality x 12.69
Wt of sample
Note: Blank Reading is obtained by above procedure without using oil.
Inference: Higher the IV for a samplem, greateris the unsaturation. Standerd the
value IV for cotton seed oil is the range of 97- 112.
VIII) Anisidine value / Oxidation Value

Principle: Oxidation value gives an idea about oxidation which has
occurred when oil is used at frying temperature. This oxidation value depends on the
absorbance of oil sample. Oxides which are formed during such exposure to oxygen
adversely affects stability of products. Higher the value of OV, more rancid is the oil.
• Weigh 0.2-0.3 g of sample in 25 ml volumetric flask
• Make up volume with petroleum ether
• Take 2 ml of anisidine solution in tubes
• For preparation of blank add 10 ml of petroleum ether.
• For sample take 10 ml of prepared sample
• Keep it for colour to be developed for 10 minutes
• Add petroleum ether in cuvettes and perform auto zero at 350 nm
• Analyze the sample. This would give the reading for Ab.
• After completion of reaction for 10 minutes.
• Put blank solution in both cuvettes and perform auto zero
• Analyze the samples and this would give reading for As.
O.V = {1.2 As- Ab} x 25
Wt of sample
Inference: OV standard for different products are different.
e.g. for bikaneri bhujia max value is 20
for aloo bhujia max value is 45-50
for crunchy munchy max value is 50.

CANNING
1. Introduction. Canning is a method of preservation of food by complete removal of
air. The products canned in this industry includes Rasogulla , Gulab Jamun , Raj bhog ,
Sponge Rasogulla etc. unlike in the canning of frults & vegetables, no step of exhausting is
done as no head space is left in the can. Canning is done by double seamer. Canning of one
can takes 15-20 sec.
After being canned the pressure and leakage in cans are checked. The
cans are dipped in water and one end of the can is attached to a pressure gauge which helps in
measuring the pressure. The water exerts pressure from outside which further aids in the

process of determining the correct pressure of the can. The correct pressure of the can is
15kg/sq.cm, anything more or less than that is not acceptable.

STORAGE
STORAGE
Storage section of the plant is good illuminated and situated at the ground
floor of the plant. Storage section is used to store the following materials.
1. Raw material such as cereals, flour, spices, sugar, salt etc.
2. Packaging material such as pouch laminates etc.
3. Chemicals
4. Stationary etc.
Storage process:- Before storage the materials is first inspected and tested for quality
parameter by the QA department of the plant. If the QA department passes the material it is
received by the store department. All incoming and outgoing records are maintained by the
computer using special software called “Enterprise resource Solution”.
Storage Condition:- Storage condition for all the raw material except dry fruits are
ambient and the dry fruits are stored in the temperature below 20o
C.

Personal hygiene:- Personal hygiene check list of the storage section covers all the
aspects personal hygiene like clothing,cape etc.which is continuously mained by the
department. Rat trap and bail station are continuously checked for rodent entry and there
result is also documented.
Shelf life:- Each stored which has limited shelf life is contentiously inspected and when the
shelf life found expiary the product is immediately transferred from the storage section.
Inventry Management:- Department head of storage always check their storage and
demand of the raw material to maintain the minimum stock of the raw material. According to
the production order it is very necessary to stock the material for at least one month.
G.M.P.(Good Manufacturing practices):- GMP guidelines for the storage like First-
In-First-Out is always performed by the storage section. Tag with product name is hanged at
place where the material is stored,so that there is a minimum chance of cross contamination.
The storage section is also equipped with automatic fire control.
CONCLUSION
The plant is well equipped with all the modern packaging machine, raw material
testing machine and finished goods quality testing. Company in also certified with HACCP,
SQF and ISO 9001-2000 certification. Spite of these things there is a big scope for the
standardization of process variable, cleaning and sanitation practices, insect and rodent
control etc. There are some findings and recommendation for above parameters to produce
the quality food and maintained of HACCP guidelines.
1. There should be well defined CCP (critical control point),there limit and there control
which should shown at that point Ex. wall of the plant.
(i) Metal detector and metal separator.
(ii) Chilling is leaks
(iv) There should the provision for insects control like insects killers in each
section of the plant.

2. Birds are sheltering at the entrance of the plant which is very necessary to control.
3. There is no air carton at the entrance of the plant.
4. There a big hole at the wall of packaging which open to the outside of plant. Hence there is
chance of insect and rodent contamination.
5. All walls of production & packaging section are very dusty which can produce a serious
contamination to the product. So the wall should be cleaned routinely by vacuum cleaner.
6. The insect & rodent controlled operator report that he is not satisfied with the other employ
co-operation to perform his work. Workers disturbed his bait station & trap.
7. The worker should use the florescence light to find the rat entry in the plant.
8. There should be a hand sanitizer at the entrance of the plant. So that any person who enters
to the plant can easily sanitize his or her hand with the chemical.
9. There should be a routinely medical check up of the health of the workers.
10. Before going to the processing extruder raw material should pass to the metallic
separator. So that any metallic contaminates which are going to the extruder barrel can not
damage the screw of extruder.
11. Hand wash/ sensitization including for all equipment & food contact surfaces are not
being done so as to achieve complete disinfection thereby.
CLEANING AND SANITATION
1. General Cleaning: - Effective cleaning and proper sanitation is the key to produce
a safe quality product. According to the nature of the food product manufactured in the plant
cleaning and sanitation practices are good suited and performed. Simultaneous floor cleaning
performed during production run. Cleaning solution normally contains the following
components.
(a) 2 Kg Causis Soda
(b) 3 Kg Acid Slurry
(c) 250 Liter water
When intense cleaning is required pure caustic solutions used.

2. Cleaning of Production Section:- The following steps are done while cleaning the
production section:-
(a) HCL is used for cleaning of toilet.
(b) Occasionally floor rinsing is done by authorized person who seeps the
floor with wiper & water.
(c) Cleaning of machinery is performed after each product changes and it is
done by air pressure and with cloths.
(d) Routinely cleaning of packaging machinery is done in 1 month when the
production gets off. It is done thoroughly by dismantling the machine.
(e) Boiling Kettle and other pans in sweet section are cleaned by hot water.
3. Cleaning Tools These following tools are as:
(a) Wiper
(b) Broom
(c) Clothes
4. Cleaning Material Placement:- All the Material related to cleaning and sanitation
are placed in a separate room behind the plant.
5. Collection and Disposal Garbage:- Garbage are collected in poly ethylene bags and
are disposed to dumping yard of the city. Liquid wastes are first treated in the ETP
(Effluent Treatment Plant) of the company and they sent to sewage line of the city.
