Thawing systems using superheated steam and low-temperature air.
[In Japanese. / En japonais.]

Type of article: Article
Summary
The thawing of frozen raw material is performed using air with a relative humidity of 100% at low temperature (5 to 10 °C). This humid air is generated with superheated steam. This thawing method gives satisfactory results. For instance, the drip flow rate of chicken weight (2 kg packing) decreases to under 1% (infinitessimal) and renders the temperature uniform.
