Career

Following 25 years of work in the flour milling industry, Posner joined the academia to initiate research of wheat processing at Kansas State University.

1986-1991: Served as a tenure associate professor in the Department of Grain Science at Kansas State University.

Posner has published numerous scientific papers and books. He has also performing research on wheat flour milling and contributed to various encyclopedias and books on in the topic of food and grain processing In January 2002, Posner worked as a member of a delegation that facilitated the first U.S. Wheat shipment to Cuba in 40 years.[1] In addition, Posner and USW regional vice president Mitch Skalicky met with leaders of the Cuban milling sector and provided technical assistance.

In 2004, he co-authored a book called Wheat Flour Milling which discussed new ideas and approaches to wheat flour milling including raw material, storage, blending, cleaning, milling, conditioning, grinding, sieving, purification, mill design, process control and maintenance as well as food safety, hygiene and mill management.[2]

Posner holds patents for a method of separating Wheat germ from whole wheat, and a process for dry milling of wheat to obtain gluten and starch.

Posner is active as a consultant to the Grain processing and wheat flour milling to national, public and private organizations in North and South America, and Far and Middle East. Since 1992 to present consulting activities include upgrading milling systems, new construction, and conducting in-plant milling short courses to upgrade staff knowledge. Posner was involved in setting up of flour milling schools in Venezuela, Egypt, and Morocco. During 2019 - Conducted a four month short course to Israeli millers, sponsored by the Israeli Industrial Association.
