Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily measure moisture content at the time of a manufacturing process by measuring a value of impedance being the function of salt concn. and measuring temp. or a value of the real number part thereof and calculating the salt concn. from said value. CONSTITUTION:As factors making the measured value of impedance (real number part) irregular, there are a function (a) of the temp. possessed by the physical properties of ground fish meat, a function (b) of the salt concn. (salt/ contained water) of ground fish meat and a function (c) composed of the salt/ protein wt. ratio related to the carrier movement in ground fish meat. Since protein in (c) can be present only in raw material ground fish meat, the wt. of protein present in processed ground fish meat can be specified from the ratio of protein in the raw material ground fish meat and a salt/protein wt. ratio can be handled as a constant by knowing the wt. of added salt. Therefore, the impedance (real number part) can be handled as the function of (b) and (a). Then, moisture content is calculated on-line and can be fed back to a process by knowing a relative value.
