METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING OF FOOD PRODUCT WITH THE USE OF REFLECTED KNOCK WAVES

摘要

FIELD: food-processing industry, in particular, processing of meat product with knock waves. SUBSTANCE: method involves placing product into holding vessel filled with liquid. Holding vessel has acoustic impedance close to that of liquid. Knock wave generator (chemical blast type or capacitor discharge electrodes) creates knock wave, which passes through holding vessel without substantial reflection owing to the fact that impedance of holding vessel is close to that of liquid. EFFECT: increased efficiency by providing softened and sterilized product. 11 cl, 12 dwg
