Abstract
An ecological and standardized process was developed for the production of garlic powder in the agricultural sector of the Arequipa region to obtain a final product with optimal organoleptic characteristics in color, smell and flavor; compared to traditional and manual processing as is normally done. This process is divided into four units: raw material preparation, raw material processing, obtaining garlic powder and obtaining compost from the solid residues of the process. It is proposed to obtain an eco-friendly process with unified procedures through the use of its solid waste, the use of solar energy and the use of measurement instruments that will facilitate the monitoring of optimal production values identified in each unit operation through the installation of points of control. The results ensure the obtaining of garlic powder that preserves its properties and benefits by continuously taking advantage of its residues.
