Overview of Products, Technologies, and Services
Fujiwara Techno-Art's Sonic Stera has put into practical use the sterilization principle of combining "pressurized steam" and "instantaneous depressurization," and has made it possible to sterilize even heat-resistant spore bacteria in an extremely short time of 0.2 seconds, with minimal change in the physical properties of raw materials.
Efficient sterilization conditions can be set for various powder materials, such as grain powders and spices, based on our test results, and a wide range of powders can be sterilized efficiently.
Product Features
| Feature 1 | 【Innovative sterilization principle】 Since bacteria adhere only to the surface of the powder, pressurized steam heats only the surface of the powder and the bacteria adhering to the surface of the powder for an extremely short time of 0.2 seconds. The pressurized and heated bacteria and powder are then instantly released under atmospheric pressure. At this time, the moisture content of the bacteria is higher than 100°C, and the instantaneous decompression causes instantaneous vaporization and expansion, which destroys the bacterial tissue and kills the bacteria. |
|---|---|
| Feature 2 | 【Sterilization by Sonic Stera (Patented)】 Sonic Stera sterilizes heat-resistant spore bacteria. Compared to conventional heat sterilization, there is little change in the physical properties of the powder, and the change in moisture content is very small. The powder's texture, water solubility, and flavor can be improved by adjusting the pressure conditions depending on the powder. |
| Feature 3 | 【High degree of perfection to improve productivity】 Continuous operation is possible due to special treatment that prevents materials from adhering to the inside of the equipment. Automatic cleaning system by CIP cleaning is standard equipment. Easy operation with touch panel operation |
| Feature 4 | 【The Future Possibilities of Food】 In order to effectively sterilize the raw materials with minimal change, it is most effective to determine the characteristics and resistance of each type of bacteria and treat the powder at a sterilization strength (steam pressure) appropriate for the powder. Sonic Stera will expand the possibilities of food for the future by proposing new products never seen before, contributing to the development of new food products, and reducing food loss by extending the expiration date. |
