Based on the mode of action, the major food preservation techniques can be categorized as: (1) slowing down or inhibiting chemical deterioration and microbial growth, (2) directly inactivating bacteria, yeasts, molds, or enzymes, and (3) avoiding recontamination before and after processing.
Food processing waste is derived from the processing of biological materials and is, in the main, biodegradable. Biowaste is defined in the landfill directive as 'waste capable of undergoing anaerobic or aerobic decomposition such as food and garden waste, and paper and cardboard
Water has a wide variety of uses in food production, for cleaning, sanitation, and manufacturing purposes. In addition to being an ingredient in many foods, it may be used for various other operations, such as for growing, unloading, fluming, washing, brining, ice manufacture, and in sanitation and in hygiene programs.
The environmental damage of food production from conventional agriculture is not limited to deforestation and pollutants associated with crop growth. Harvesting the crop represents a significant amount of nutrients, water, and energy being taken from the land.
The basis for sanitation is the removal of soils from the manufacturing environment. There are many benefits to this process. From a food safety standpoint, there is the removal of pathogenic organisms, prevention of the formation of biofilms and removal of potentially harmful chemicals from food contact surfaces.
Food packaging is defined as enclosing food to protect it from tampering or contamination from physical, chemical, and biological sources, with active packaging being the most common packaging system used for preserving food products.
Sugar, salt, nitrites, butylated hydroxy anisol (BHA), butylated hydroxyl toluene (BHT), tert-butylhydroquinone (TBHQ), vinegar, citric acid, and calcium propionate are all chemicals that preserve foods. Salt, sodium nitrite, spices, vinegar, and alcohol have been used to preserve foods for centuries.
Sugaring is a food preservation method similar to pickling. Sugaring is the process of desiccating a food by first dehydrating it, then packing it with pure sugar. This sugar can be crystalline in the form of table or raw sugar, or it can be a high sugar density liquid such as honey, syrup or molasses.
Removing the moisture from food helps prevent bacterial and fungal growth which would ruin stored foods. Smoking is a method of drying that also imparts flavor to the food (usually meat items), and smoke helps keep bacteria-carrying-insects away during the drying process.
Microwave penetrates inside the food materials resulting in entire internal cooking of whole volume of food rapidly and uniformly reducing the processing time and energy. This fast heat transfer in turn results in preservation of nutrients, vitamins contents, flavor, sensory characteristics, and color of food
Food irradiation is the process of exposing food and food packaging to ionizing radiation, such as from gamma rays, x-rays, or electron beams. Wikipedia
Low dose (up to 1 kGy): Inhibit sprouting (potatoes, onions, yams, garlic)
Lowering the temperature of food so that microbes and enzymes are inactivated.
Moisture is changed to ice and microbes become inactive without water.
Packaging food maintains the colour, flavour and texture.
Fast freezing (-25ºC) helps maintain nutritive value and texture of food.
Chilling is an important activity in food processing. Foods are chilled to extend shelf life by reducing biochemical reactions and microbial activity. Temperature control is essential in order to prevent spoilage and food safety concerns during storage.1
Drying is a mass transfer process consisting of the removal of water or another solvent by evaporation from a solid, semi-solid or liquid. This process is often used as a final production step before selling or packaging products.
Food drying is a method of food preservation in which food is dried (dehydrated or desiccated). Drying inhibits the growth of bacteria, yeasts, and mold through the removal of water.
Dehydration has been used widely for this purpose since ancient times; the earliest known practice is 12,000 B.C. by inhabitants of the modern Middle East and Asia regions. Drying is a simple method for preserving food.
Dried foods make great healthy and tasty snacks. They are good for lunches, travel, backpacking, hiking, and camping plus many other activities. Most types of foods can be dried. Drying is an ancient method of food preservation.
Most foods will not support the growth of bacteria if their water activity is less than 0.85, because at this water activity there is not enough water available for the bacteria to grow.
However, yeasts can grow at water activities as low as 0.70, while some molds will grow even at water activities as low as 0.60!
Foods with water activities in this range usually have preservatives added to prevent the growth of yeasts and molds.
Acidic foods with a pH less than 4.6, such as tomato sauce, retard the growth of microorganisms. Thus an acidic food with a water activity less than 0.85 is relatively shelf stable, especially if it is stored in the refrigerator.
In this case, low pH, water activity and temperature combine to provide good insurance against the growth of harmful pathogens.
Sorption is a physical and chemical process by which one substance becomes attached to another.
Sorption includes both adsorption & absorption
e.g., liquids being absorbed by a solid or gases being absorbed by a liquid, cotton dipped in ink.
Sorption the process in which one substance takes up or holds another; adsorption or absorption
Sorption is a process in which a solute moves from a fluid to a particulate solid.
The food sorption isotherm describes the thermodynamic relationship between water activity and the equilibrium of the moisture content of a food product at constant temperature and pressure. ...
The typical shape of an isotherm reflects the way in which the water binds the system.
Water plays many very important roles in food. It affects texture (dry and brittle versus moist and soft), enables the activity of enzymes and chemical reactions to occur (acts as a solvent), supports the growth of microorganisms, makes it possible for large molecules like polysaccharides and proteins to move about and interact, and conducts heat within food.
Many foods such as meat, poultry, seafood, fruits and vegetables are composed of 75% and more water, so water is the most abundant component in many fresh foods. Other foods such as dairy products, and fresh baked goods also contain high levels of water (about 35% or more). Foods that are high in moisture are at
risk of contamination from the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria, yeast and mold, while dry foods like pasta generally have long shelf lives.
Dry heat acts by protein denaturation, oxidative damage and toxic effects of elevated levels of electrolytes. The moist heat acts by coagulation and denaturation of proteins.
Moist heat is superior to dry heat in action.
Temperature required to kill microbe by dry heat is more than the moist heat.
Thermal death time is the minimum time required to kill a suspension of organisms at a predetermined temperature in a specified environment
