    摘要: The disclosure relates to methods for operating a pasteurizing device for pasteurizing foods filled into sealed containers. The foods are treated in treatment zones by applying a tempered, aqueous treatment liquid to an exterior of the containers. The treatment liquid is re-supplied to at least one treatment zone for reuse via circulation circuit pipes of a circulation circuit. A partial flow of the treatment liquid is continuously removed from the circulation circuit and filtered by means of a membrane filtration means. Furthermore, a biocide is apportioned to the treatment liquid as process chemical, such that a concentration of the biocide does not exceed 0.4 mmol/L. In addition, a pH-regulating agent comprising at least one inorganic or organic acid is apportioned to the treatment liquid as process chemical, such that a pH value of the treatment liquid is set to a range from 3.5 to 7.0.

    摘要: Apparatus and method for pasteurizing food products and ready meals in hermetically sealed packages (22) by means of microwaves, comprising a microwave chamber (14); a lower conveyor belt (20) for the packages (22); an upper conveyor belt (18), extending substantially horizontally and vertically movable, and a microwave source (16) located below the lower conveyor belt (20), the microwave chamber (14) being under atmospheric ambient pressure. The apparatus comprises a cooling plate (10) in close contact with the upper conveyor belt (18) so that during microwave heating the top of the package (22) is cooled to below the condensation point of water vapor and overpressure in the package is avoided.

    摘要: A high temperature food heating device includes a high temperature heating tank composed of three tanks, which are a main tank, a front reserve tank and a reserve tank, each of the front and rear reserve tanks has a first storage part having an opening at the upper part and a second storage part communicating with the first storage part at the lower part of the first storage part and having an opening at the upper part. In the high temperature food heating device, a communication chamber for communicating between a water surface of each of the second storage parts of the front reserve tank and the rear reserve tank and a water surface of the main tank and storing a liquid or a gas inside is provided, and a high pressure gas or a pressurized liquid is supplied from a high pressure fluid supply section into the communication chamber.

    摘要: An improved transport carrier for use in a fluid filled microwave sterilization or pasteurization system includes patterned electrically conductive layers or carriers which extend over or under items to be sterilized or pasteurized and occlude 1 to 30% of the area in the direct path of microwave emissions to the items. When the patterned electrically conductive layers or cages are present, heating of the items to be sterilized or pasteurized is substantially more uniform compared to when there is nothing occluding or otherwise interrupting the direct pathway from the microwave emitters to the items. Enhanced automation is achieved for sterilization or pasteurization systems by configuring the preheating and cooling sections as loading and unloading sections. Furthermore, superior fluid temperature control between the loading, heating, and unloading sections is achieved using double gates or dividers between sections.

    摘要: The invention relates to a continuous sterilizing system comprising a sterilizing body into which a thermal fluid is introduced for sterilizing products, the products to be sterilized being arranged in containers that circulate inside the sterilizing body, said sterilizing body being divided into different sterilization zones by means of dividing walls, and each of said dividing walls having a through-opening that is substantially the same shape as a container, such that the containers close the through-openings of the dividing walls, rendering the sterilization zones thermally isolated from one another.

    摘要: A tunnel pasteurizer having a tunnel, through which the material to be pasteurized is conducted and sprayed or sprinkled with water, and with a trap region for the draining water arranged on the bottom of the tunnel, pasteurizer and a plurality of temperature zones arranged in the transport direction, and the trap region is divided into separate trap zones which correspond to the temperature zones, from which the water is re-supplied to the respective tunnel zones, and comprising a control means for controlling the water temperature in the temperature zones. To improve control of the temperature in the individual temperature zones, the control and the tubing of the trap zones is adapted such that water can selectively be taken from the individual trap zones for temperature control and can selectively be returned to other temperature zones, wherein water is buffered in the individual temperature zones separate from other temperature zones in a respective zone buffer.
