摘要:
A method and device are described that reduce the amount of pathogens in a liquid and/or to mitigate the growth of pathogens. Utilizing the method or device, liquid product is subjected to an 8 Bar or greater pressure drop. The liquid product is then heated to increase its temperature by at least 10° C. while it is in the droplet phase and/or after being collected into a liquid volume.

A receptacle for storing, pressurizing, and dispensing packaged beverages. The receptacle includes an airtight chamber with a removable lid, wherein the joint between the lid and the chamber is also airtight. A gas valve allows for the inflow and outflow of gas, and a tap port and tap stem allow the beverage to be dispensed without breaking the seal of the chamber. A pressure relief valve allows for more rapid depressurization. The chamber can be used at high and low pressures, such as a partial vacuum, to prevent oxidation of a number of open beverages, such as beers, wines, and sodas. A pressure gauge port coupled with an optional pressure gauge allows a user to verify the appropriate pressure for the type of beverage being preserved. The gas valve may be disposed on a base of the receptacle, as may the pressure relief and/or the pressure gauge port.

A disposable container for commercializing individual frozen food portions is described. It is made of a plastic material and has a plurality of individual pockets defining each a volume configured for containing a portion of frozen food. Each pocket has a bottom wall and a lateral wall extending from the bottom wall and a top opening, the bottom wall having a thickness inferior to the thickness of the lateral wall. The portion of frozen food is extracted from its respective individual pocket by pushing in on the bottom wall of the pocket. A method for packaging, commercializing and using individual frozen food portions is also disclosed. The container and method are particularly useful for preparing a smoothie from frozen puree of vegetables and fruits. The container is particularly adapted for being shipped directly to the consumer. An insert and method for transforming a jar into a shaker are also disclosed.

The method of the invention is characterized in that in the first phase the device installation is filled with processed liquid product, yielding a low pressure zone and then the processed liquid product is introduced under high pressure into the cavitation process, where moving at a rate of not less than 3 m/s and under pressure of not less than 20 bar is introduced to the cavitation and rotation location of the separated streams of the processed liquid product, which rotating in the further part, in the longitudinal axis of the cavitator, move in the opposite directions, resulting in differential pressure leading to cavitation process with effects characteristic for sterilization and homogenization with heterogeneous parameters, wherein in the next phase a separation takes place into a liquid product, which has a particle size larger than 600 nm and a liquid product which has a particle size smaller than 600 nm, wherein the liquid product of larger particle size is directed to cooling and complementary cavitation reprocessing, and the liquid product of smaller particle size is subjected to particle size analysis control, by which the liquid product, which meets the preset parameters, is directed to the finished product acceptance, and the liquid product which does not meet the acceptance criteria is sent to the next reprocessing.
摘要:
A closure (40) includes a body (42) with a threaded portion (44) for engaging the closure with a container. Inwards of portion (44) is a liner (46) comprising a hydrogen generating device, wherein the liner includes one layer (48) which incorporates a hydride dispersed in a polymeric matrix and, on opposite sides of layer (48) are arranged PET layers (50, 52). Layer (50) acts as a control layer to control the rate of passage of water vapour from the beverage in the container to the hydride containing layer (48) and thereby control generation of hydrogen by the hydrogen generating device. In use, water vapour passes through layer (50) and contacts the hydride associated with layer (48) which results in production of molecular hydrogen which combines with oxygen. Thereafter, a reaction between the hydrogen and oxygen takes place, catalysed by a catalyst associated with the container thereby to scavenge the oxygen.

摘要:
A method for producing a beverage product from maple sap. The sugar content of the maple sap is modified to a predetermined level and the resulting beverage is subjected to high pressure in order to sanitize the beverage without fouling the taste. Frozen storage techniques are applied in order to allow the beverage to be sold year-round.
