3D Printing
Precise deposition of the materials layer-by-layer with fixed parameters to create the predefined structures. Personalization, meal composition adapted to individual diet, ease and simplicity of preparation of meals, both aesthetic […]
Biometric sensory technologies including eye-tracking glasses, facial expression analysis, a Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) unit and an Electroencephalography (EEG) headset. Compusense® software.
Sensory science can be applied across the product development process to understand how the key sensory properties of food drive consumer acceptability. Gain a deeper understanding of consumer sensory perceptions […]
Bioprocessing bioreactors (Fermentation): Biolector XT (screening scale); Applicon reactors; pilot scale bioreactor
Allows optimal growth of cells and microbial organisms. Optimise microbial species and enzyme selection for fermentaiton processes; generate high-value bio-based products from waste streams; production of cell-based proteins as food […]
Cavitation
Rapid increase of linear velocity while passing through a constriction (such as venturi tube or orifice) causing decrease of static pressure. Cavitation bubbles are formed, followed by their implosion with […]
Cold plasma
Cold plasma is a non-thermal technology that uses a gas that has been ionized (ionised gas) and is characterized by active elements, such as atoms, reactive oxigen, free radicals, ions, […]
Continuous UVC (UVGI – Ultraviolet germincidal irradiation at 254 nm)
Food conveyor solutions already existing for solid food and the decontamination of food packaging. Treatment of liquid commonly found in water treatment and some beverage. Interesting photo-catalytic reaction known to […]
Controlled atmospheres conservation
Extends the shelf life of food preserving the nutritional quality and taste
Convective dehydration
Make changes to the nutritional value and flavours of food while significantly reducing its weight, making it ideal for long-term storage and transport
Dehydration – Air Drying Chamber System AIRGENEX® food dryer
Removal of moisture by evaporation using heat and air-flow to reduce water activity, improve shelf-life, lower weight and bulk of the product. Closed system – no interchange with ambient air. […]
Dehydration – Enwave® microwave-vacuum dryer
Addition of vacuum to microwaves offers all advantages of dielectric heating but at a reduced processing temperature being the function of operating pressure. Low-temperature drying technique results in better organoleptic […]
