Why High Pressure Processing (HPP) Considered a Better Alternative to Thermal Processing?

High Pressure Processing and its Application in Cheese Manufacturing: A Review

Nowadays, high standard level of living has led to an increase in demand for foods which are minimally processed via high sensory and nutritional quality and also an extended shelf life. High pressure processing (HPP) is one of the techniques that was considered for food preservation at the first application in food industry. Pressures in the range of 300 to 650MPa have been found to affect the...

Supply chain design considering cellular structure and alternative processing routings

Nowadays, in highly competitive global markets and constant pressure to reduce total costs, enterprises consider group technology and Supply Chain Management (SCM) accordingly and usually separately as the key elements for intra and inter facilities improvement. Simultaneous consideration of the elements of these two disciplines in an integrated design can result in higher efficiency and ...

Thermal versus high pressure processing of carrots: A comparative pilot-scale study on equivalent basis

Novel Applications of High Pressure Processing

Fish Protein Gels HPP can be used to produce new surimi products. In surimi processing, the sarcoplasmic proteins are removed by thorough washing since they do not form gels when heated. However, if sarcoplasmic proteins are pressurized at over 300 MPa, they will coagulate and can be incorporated into surimi and related products. Pressure-induced gels have been reported to have a springy textur...

High pressure processing for food safety.

Food preservation using high pressure is a promising technique in food industry as it offers numerous opportunities for developing new foods with extended shelf-life, high nutritional value and excellent organoleptic characteristics. High pressure is an alternative to thermal processing. The resistance of microorganisms to pressure varies considerably depending on the pressure range applied, te...
