Sessions cover topics such as electronic record-keeping\, workforce training\, chemical safety\, food adulteration prevention\, seafood pathogen detection\, audit readiness\, product development\, environmental air quality\, and alternative protein innovations. The series is designed for food producers\, processors\, seafood businesses\, entrepreneurs\, quality assurance staff\, extension educators\, students\, faculty\, regulatory professionals\, and technical specialists\, with particular relevance for those working with food safety training\, compliance systems\, seafood hazards\, product development\, and emerging technologies in food processing. \nFood businesses and professionals face increasing regulatory expectations\, evolving hazards\, and rapid technological change. By addressing real-world topics such as digital compliance systems\, chemical handling\, adulteration prevention\, seafood pathogen detection\, and audit preparation\, the series helps participants stay current and make informed\, practical decisions. Participants will gain practical tools\, real-world case studies\, and actionable strategies related to training programs\, compliance documentation\, safe chemical use\, adulteration prevention\, seafood safety\, product innovation\, and environmental controls—knowledge they can immediately apply in their operations\, classrooms\, or regulatory work. \nEnvironmental Air Treatment\nThis webinar will address the importance of air quality control in food processing\, manufacturing\, and storage environments. Attendees will learn about common airborne contaminants such as pathogens\, dust\, allergens\, and volatile organic compounds\, and how they can compromise product safety and shelf life. The session will cover key engineering and operational controls\, including HVAC system design\, filtration technologies (e.g.\, HEPA\, carbon filters)\, and air flow management. We will also discuss regulatory expectations\, monitoring methods\, and how to implement an effective environmental air program to meet standards such as those required for GMP\, FSMA\, and certification audits. \nTo Register and Receive Webinar Zoom Link URL:/calendar/event/food-safety-webinar-series-environmental-air-treatment/ CATEGORIES:Conferences & Workshops,Online Events ORGANIZER;CN="91±¬ÁÏ Cooperative Extension":MAILTO:extension@maine.edu LOCATION:/calendar/event/food-safety-webinar-series-environmental-air-treatment/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
