What is Non-thermal Processing of Food: An Alternative for Traditional Food Processing about?

Heating and frying are the conventional thermal processing procedures used in the food business to inactivate harmful and spoilage bacteria. The shelf life of food is extended as a result, and food safety is maintained. However, the high temperature used has an adverse effect on critical food characteristics such as colour, flavour, taste, appearance, and nutrient content. Such impacts reduce consumer approval of thermally processed meals, which has a detrimental impact on food product sales and future industry revenue. As a result, non-thermal food processing/ preservative methods have arisen as viable alternatives to the thermal and chemical unit operations in food processing. Non-thermal processing preserves food without diminishing its quality, and it appears to be more cost-effective because these processes take less time and energy. Non-thermal technologies produce goods that are safe, affordable, and consumer-friendly, making them a preferable option for preservation. Ultrasound, ultra-high pressure, pulsed X-ray, ionising radiation, pulsed electric fields, pulsed light, high voltage arc discharge, hurdle technologies and magnetic fields are examples of these processes.
