Preservation of Foods with Pulsed Electric Fields discusses the basics of high
voltage PEF as a low temperature food processing method, and the application of
this technology in food preservation. This technology is attracting a great deal
of interest around the world because it is more cost effective than conventional
systems due to the conservative nature of PEF. This book thoroughly covers the
electrical and food engineering aspects, as well as the food science components
(i.e. food microbiology, enzyme inactivation kinetics, and sensory evaluation).
Key Features
* Fundamentals of high intensity pulsed electric fields
* Design of PEF processing equipment
* Biological principles for microbial inactivation in electric
