more than 32,000 employees serving customers in more than 160 countries. In Canada, the company has a total_x000D_
of 42 facilities located in Alberta, Manitoba, Québec and Ontario; employing over 1000 people. The company_x000D_
has a global value chain that includes 428 crop procurement locations, 250 ingredient manufacturing facilities,_x000D_
38 innovation centers and the world's premier crop transportation network. ADM is making products for food,_x000D_

ADM has a wheat flour wet mill facility located in Candiac, Québec. This plant is processing Canadian wheat_x000D_
flour. To render the plant more competitive, the processing conditions will be optimized to allow the mill to_x000D_
process wheat flours having different compositions, and maybe extend the range of Canadian feedstock which_x000D_
could be processed in Candiac. In order to optimize the plant, a laboratory scale model of the plant will be_x000D_
reproduced. The flours which will have successfully passed through the laboratory model will be characterized_x000D_
and compared to the flours which will have not successfully completed the run. This will allow engineers at_x000D_
McGill to modify the operations conditions in function of the flours being processed._x000D_
By optimizing the plant conditions, less expensive Canadian wheat flour may be used at the Candiac plant,_x000D_
which would also help the plant to be more competitive and purchase more Canadian wheat., program purpose french : Archer Daniels Midland is one of the world's largest agricultural processors and food ingredient providers, with_x000D_
