Food sterilization equipment (sterilization equipment) is an important link in ensuring food safety. It can be divided into many types according to different sterilization principles and technologies.
First of all, high-temperature thermal sterilization equipment is the most common type (i.e. sterilization kettle). It kills bacteria in food through high temperature and makes the food sterile. This type of equipment includes steam sterilization equipment, water immersion sterilization equipment, spray sterilization equipment, fan sterilization equipment, rotary sterilization equipment, etc., and is suitable for sterilizing products with different packaging forms and contents.
In the food and beverage processing industry, pasteurization equipment is an important and widely used equipment, also known as pasteurizer. Pasteurization is a heat treatment method that heats food to a specific temperature for a short period of time and then cools it rapidly to kill pathogenic microorganisms in the food while maintaining the nutritional content and taste of the food. This method is widely used in the processing of various foods, such as milk, juice, canned food, etc.
Microwave sterilization equipment uses the thermal effect and biological effect of microwaves to inactivate the bacteria and viruses inside the food to achieve the purpose of sterilization. Microwave sterilization equipment has the advantages of fast sterilization speed, good effect, and simple operation, and is suitable for processing various foods.
In addition, radiation sterilization equipment is also an important food sterilization equipment. It uses a radiation source to emit rays to irradiate food and kill bacteria by destroying their DNA structure. Radiation sterilization equipment has the advantages of good sterilization effect and no residue, but it requires the use of professional equipment and technology and is suitable for some special food processing.
In addition to the above common food sterilization equipment, there are also some new food sterilization equipment, such as ultraviolet sterilization equipment, ozone sterilization equipment, etc. These equipment adopt different sterilization principles and technologies, have their own advantages and scope of application, and can be selected and used according to different food processing needs.
Food sterilization equipment is an important tool to ensure food safety. Different types of food sterilization equipment have different characteristics and scope of application. When selecting and using food sterilization equipment, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the specific conditions and needs of food processing and select the most suitable equipment and technology to ensure food safety and hygiene.
