This document discusses High Intensity Pulsed Electric Field (HIPEF), a novel non-thermal food preservation technique. HIPEF uses high-intensity pulsed electric fields of 10-80kv/cm for short pulse times to inactivate microbes through electroporation without significantly increasing food temperature. It has advantages over thermal processing as it better preserves food quality attributes. HIPEF is best suited for liquid foods and has been used commercially to pasteurize juices. However, it also has limitations including only being applicable to low conductivity foods and requiring specialized equipment. Overall, HIPEF is a promising non-thermal food preservation method that is still being researched further.
