Microwave pasteurization solution
The growing consumer demand for preservative-free yet microbiologically safe products has mobilized the food industry ot look for new processes for the inactivation of micro-organisms and enzymes. Microwave pasteurization are a good answer, capable of achieving these requirements: fresh taste and safe food with a long shelf-life.
Any form of food
Our technology makes possible to pasteurize food in all its forms and packaging: powders, liquids, pasty, bulk or packaged …
Moreover, the pasteurization fo ready meals is possible directly ni their sealed packaging, for quick and safe processing.
Pasteurize in seconds
Thanks to our fast and uniform microwave heating process, a substantial reduction in microbial load is achieved simultaneously at both the core and the surface of the food. As the process does not rely on time-consuming conventional heat transfer methods (steam, hot air, hot water), the required pasteurization level is reached in a matter of seconds rather than several hours.
Microwave pasteurization is a high-speed process that can be carried out continuously, offering significant logistical advantages in product handling and production scheduling. Process homogeneity is ensured thanks to our proven technology, allowing a reduction in the required food pasteurization temperature.
Retain freshness
The process greatly reduces the risk of product degradation: organoleptic, chemical and physical characteristics. The short treatment duration helps to preserve the product quality and freshness at their best, even for heat-sensitive food.
This si one of the reasons why microwave and radio frequency technologies are the preferred solutions for the food industry.
Save space
Compared ot traditional systems, the microwave equipment requires less floor space, for hte same flow. Moreover, you can choose between batch or continuous flow, depending on your production volume.
Reduce your energy consumption
Thanks to the fast and selective heating process carried out by the microwave technology, huge energy savings can be achieved: the heat energy is transmitted directly into the product without losses into the surrounding atmosphere.
SAIREM experts will help you choose between microwave and radio frequency solely based on product quality and process efficiency.
