RU2342056C1 - Method for sterilisation of peach compote with kernels - Google Patents

Abstract

FIELD: foods.

SUBSTANCE: method comprises sterilisation of compote in hot water with preliminary heating by hot water spraying followed by cooling of air flow, thereafter, cooling is repeated by alternate covering of jar with water film of 65-70°C. Note that jar is rotated from bottom to lid within the process.

EFFECT: saving of heating energy and water, time decrease of process.

Description

The proposed method for the invention relates to the canning industry, and in particular to methods for sterilizing peach compote in cans SKO 1-82-500.

Sources, which were searched by this method, showed that the prototype of the proposed method is a method of sterilizing canned food "Compote of peaches" in an autoclave [1] according to the mode

,

,

where 20 is the duration of heating the water in the autoclave to 100 ° C, min; 20-25 duration of own sterilization of canned food at a temperature of 100 ° C, min; 20 - the duration of the process of cooling water in an autoclave to 40 ° C, min.

The disadvantages of this method are:

- long duration of the process;

- uneven heat treatment of the product;

- high consumption of thermal energy and water;

- the frequency of the technological cycle.

The aim of the proposed method is to save thermal energy, water, reducing the duration of the process, ensuring the continuity of the process of thermal sterilization and improving the quality of products.

This goal is achieved due to the fact that the cans after seaming are installed in a special carrier that provides mechanical tightness of the cans and are pre-heated by hot showering with a temperature of 60-65 ° C for 3 min, sterilization in hot water with a temperature of 75 ° C for 7 min repeated showering with hot water at a temperature of 85-90 ° C for 5 min followed by sterilization in hot water at a temperature of 100 ° C for 10 min and cooling in a stream of atmospheric air at a speed of 6-7 m / s for 5 minutes and further cooling in the stream of atmospheric air with alternately applying a water film with a temperature of 65-70 ° C for 8 minutes on the surface of the can, while the can is rotated from the bottom to the lid with a frequency of 0.133 s ^-1 during the heat treatment.

An example implementation of the method.

Cans with compote after sealing are installed in a carrier that provides mechanical tightness (preventing caps from breaking off during heat treatment) and subjected to hot-water showering with a temperature of 65-70 ° C for 3 minutes, then placed in a hot water bath with a temperature of 75 ° C for 5 min Since glass containers can withstand a temperature difference of 27 ± 2 ° C [2], this will not cause thermal battle of containers when placed in a bath with hot water, given that the initial temperature of the jar with compote is 50 ÷ 55 ° C, and when stewing hot Bank water is heated to 60-65 ° C. After 5 minutes, the carrier with the jars is removed from this bath and, to prevent cooling of the cans with compote when transferred from one bath to another, they are subjected to repeated showering with hot water at a temperature of 85-90 ° C for 5 min and placed in the next bath with water at a temperature of 100 ° C for 10 minutes After this time, the banks are cooled in the stream of atmospheric air at its speed of 6-7 m / s for 5 minutes, followed by continued cooling in the stream of atmospheric air with alternately applying a water film at a temperature of 65-70 ° C on the surface for 8 minutes. In this case, in the process of heat treatment, the banks rotate from the bottom to the lid with a frequency of 0.133 s ^-1 .

Significant distinguishing features of the proposed method are: pre-heating cans with the product by swirling with combustible water at a temperature of 60-65 ° C for 3 min before sterilization in the first bath at a temperature of 75 ° C for 5 min and re-warming with hot water at a temperature of 85-90 ° C for 5 minutes before sterilization in a second bath at a temperature of 100 ° C for 10 minutes, followed by cooling in a stream of atmospheric air at a speed of 6-7 m / s for 5 minutes with continued cooling in a stream of atmospheric air with variable applying a water film banks surface temperature 65-70 ° C for 8 minutes and wherein the bank is rotated with the bottom cover at a frequency of 0.133 s ^-1.

The total duration of the sterilization process according to the proposed method is 38 minutes, which is 22 ÷ 27 minutes less than in the prototype.

This mode provides industrial sterility of canned food, as evidenced by the magnitude of the sterilizing effect, which corresponds to a standard value of 150-200 conv. min [3].

In addition, this mode in comparison with the prototype provides savings in thermal energy, water, the ability to ensure the continuity of the technological cycle and improving the quality of the finished product.
