Viral-grade food packaging sterilization device comes out

A device that can completely kill bacteria and viruses in milk or liquid beverages after being sterilized was successfully developed in Hebei Shichuang Food Machinery Technology Co., Ltd. recently. This device has been used in the company's sterile milk production line and aseptic packaging machine. The use of this technology to produce soft packaging of sterile milk can ensure that all bacteria and viruses in milk are killed. Recently, the Department of Hygiene and Epidemic Prevention conducted tests on sterile packaged soft packaging of aseptic milk products. The results showed that the number of bacteria and viruses in sterile milk was zero.

Experts pointed out that the sterilization method developed by Hebei Shichuang Food Machinery Technology Co., Ltd., which does not use high-temperature heating, is a world-class advanced technology. It is the first time in our country's sterile milk production line and aseptic packaging machine, which is a major breakthrough in the field of sterile food production technology in China. This achievement has filled a gap in China's aseptic packaging technology and has now applied for national patents.

The application of virus-level sterilization technology to aseptic milk production and aseptic packaging machines not only kills all bacteria in milk, but also benefits human health. It also greatly improves the quality of aseptic milk products and extends the length of sterile milk. Shelf life. Consumers reflected that the taste of new products was better and more pure.

It is understood that the current domestic production of sterile milk in the domestic market, the process is mostly followed by the instant high temperature sterilization - aseptic maintenance - aseptic packaging such a process. However, the aseptic milk produced can only meet the commercial-sterile standard, in which the virus in milk is not completely removed. Shichuang’s technicians discovered at a pharmaceutical packaging exhibition in the United States that the US pharmaceutical industry uses advanced technologies to enable the production and packaging of drugs to meet virus-level standards.

The analysis of the technicians of Hebei Shichuang Food Machinery Technology Co., Ltd. believes that developed countries such as the United States do not adopt traditional methods relying on high-temperature sterilization, but rather a more advanced sterilization technology. At the same time, Shichuang learned that the EU's newly formulated regulations for sterile foods require that sterile foods must meet virus-level standards. For this reason, Hebei Shichuang Food Machinery Technology Co., Ltd. felt that the introduction of virus-grade sterilization methods into the production of aseptic foods was not only due to the need for food safety, health and hygiene, but also competition and development in domestic and foreign markets. The general trend.

Since the beginning of 2005, engineers and technicians of Hebei Shichuang Food Machinery Technology Co., Ltd. have been through more than a year of research, and virus-level sterilization technology and devices have finally been successfully developed. The virus-level sterilizer they developed was successfully applied to aseptic milk production lines and new-generation aseptic packaging machines and received very good results. According to the product test report provided by the Health and Epidemic Prevention Station of Tangshan City, the number of bacteria and viruses in the sterile milk is zero. The application of the new sterilizing device has improved the quality of the aseptic milk and reached the standards of North America and the European Union. It has laid the foundation for improving the equipment technology level of the domestically-produced aseptic milk production enterprise and integrating it with the international market. (Chiu Jing)
