The value of ultra-short impulses used in the food industry for electrical destruction of bacteria in liquid foods.

Intérêt potentiel des impulsions ultra courtes pour la débactérisation électrique des liquides agro-alimentaires.

Author(s) : MICHERON F., ROCHE M., PAPILLON J.

Type of article: Article

Summary

The authors use a review of the literature to describe electrical destruction of bacteria in liquids in the food industry and discuss the potential value of using ultra-short impulses in order to limit energy consumption (that raises the temperature) while maintaining the same high level of destruction. Prototype ultra-short-impulse generators are being developed and meet a wide range of current industrial needs.
