History department of milk technology, oil and fat products and the beauty industry begins with 1954 year, when the Department of Drying was organized at the Odessa Technological Institute of Food and Refrigeration Industry, which to 1967 year was headed by Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Georgy Kuzmych Filonenko.

Filonenko G.K. was born in 1892. U 1922 graduated from the mechanical faculty of the Moscow Higher Technical School and received the title of engineer. WITH 1927 p. started working at the Ivanovo Energy Institute.
U 1939 p. defended the thesis and was approved for the scientific degree of Doctor of Technical Sciences, and y 1940 year in the rank of professor.

He was the initiator of the organization of the energy department at the institute.

WITH 1930 by 1951 headed the Department of Industrial Heat Engineering for years, a h 1951 headed the department of gas furnace heat engineering.

G.K. Filonenko is the author of a number of scientific and technical articles for magazines and capital works in various fields of technology. U 1952 year G.K. Filonenko together with Doctor of Technical Sciences. P.D. Lebedev wrote the book "Drying plants".

Took an active part in public life: was a deputy of the district and city Council of Workers' Deputies, a member of the regional committee for the protection of peace, member of the Board of the All-Union Society for the Dissemination of Political and Scientific Knowledge.

In the 1960s, a research group was created under his leadership, which started scientific research on the theoretical foundations of the process of drying food products, search for new intensive drying methods, design of drying plants.

Under the guidance of Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Filonenko G.K. was protected 10 candidate theses.

He had government awards: Order of the Red Banner of Labor, Medal "For Valiant Labor in the Great Patriotic War" 1941 – 45 ".

The department of milk technology and drying of food products was created in 1975 p. by merging the department of drying technology and part of the department of technology of meat and dairy products.

Prior to unification, the Department of Meat and Dairy Technology was headed by Associate Professor B.O. Tadulev., and the department of drying technology - Ph.D., prof. Grishin M.O.

Composition of the department 1975 year

Candidate of Technical Sciences, Associate Professor B.A. Tadulev

Associate Professor Tadulev B.O. had extensive experience of practical work in the dairy industry of Ukraine. After graduating from the Leningrad Institute of Technology, he was mobilized into the ranks of the Soviet Army. He participated in the Great Patriotic War, was the defender of. Leningrad, and after the war he was awarded the title of Honorary Citizen of this city. Boris Oleksandrovych, seriously wounded in battle, was demobilized due to disability, therefore, even during the war in the territory liberated from the enemy, he participated in the restoration of destroyed enterprises of the dairy industry. In peacetime Tadulev B.O. held managerial positions - chief engineer of Dnipropetrovsk and Odesa city dairy plants, Odesa Regional Association of the Dairy Industry. It was during his leadership of the department that the laboratory of milk technology was equipped with pilot plants for the production of solids, processed and sour milk cheeses, condensed milk and butter. This equipment is used until now when studying the disciplines of the department for modeling technological processes of production of almost all types of dairy products in laboratory conditions, as well as in the scientific work of teachers, graduate students, masters, specialists.

Associate Professor Tadulev B.O. made a significant contribution to the development of the educational process, including course and diploma design, having behind him extensive practical work in industry. The teachers of the department are grateful to him for teaching.

Mykhailo Oleksandrovych Grishin was drafted into the ranks of the Soviet Army from the first days of the Great Patriotic War immediately after graduating from high school, went through the whole war and only in 1947 year was demobilized. U 1952 graduated with honors from the Odessa Technological Institute of the Food and Refrigeration Industry. He worked as the chief engineer of Kozmodemyanskyi, and then Oboyansky vegetable drying plants (Russia). Grishin M.O. carried out extensive work on the reconstruction and mechanization of production processes at enterprises. But the love of science won. U 1964 p. Mykhailo Oleksandrovych defended his PhD thesis under the guidance of a well-known thermophysicist, of a domestic classic in the field of drying, Ph.D., Professor G.K. Filonenko. From that time, the main direction of Grishin's scientific work was M.O. becomes a study of the theoretical foundations of heat and mass transfer, hydrodynamics of the suspended layer and improvement of methods of engineering calculations of the kinetics of the processes of the given drying rate. Mykhailo Oleksandrovych is the founder of the scientific school on the development of processes for drying food plant materials in a suspended layer. In the Soviet Union, the department, which was managed by prof. Grishin M.O., was a mainstay in the field of drying technology. U 1974 p. M.O. Grishin successfully defended his doctoral thesis, and y 1975 p. he was awarded the academic title of professor. Under the leadership of prof. Grishina M.O. a complete modernization of the drying laboratory was carried out, it was equipped with modern experimental dryers, which are equipped with automatic devices for controlling and adjusting the parameters of the drying agent. And at this time, the laboratory of the department has all types of dryers for the production of dry products, on which teachers conduct research, graduate students and masters not only of the department, and the entire academy. WITH 1961 p. M.O. Grishin participates in the training of specialists in the specialty “Technology of milk and dairy products”. Therefore, his election to the position of head of the department of milk technology and drying of food products was logical and natural. IN 1976 p. prof. Grishina M.O. appointed vice-rector for scientific work. In this responsible position during 10 Mykhailo Oleksandrovych organizes the scientific research work of the academy, combining it with the head of the department. These were years of fruitful activity, which brought a significant economic effect to the national economy. Many studies have been performed at the level of world achievements, awarded with medals and certificates at international exhibitions.
