KARAKTERISTIK PEMANASAN GEL MIKRO • Memanaskan daerah yang mengandung air• Pemanasan berlangsung cepat• Tidak menyebabkan “gosong”pada permukaan• Mudah/Praktis
APLIKASI SPESIFIK PEMANASAN GEL. MIKRO :
• Cocok untuk mengeringkan bahan setengah keringContoh :
Pasta- waktu pengeringan turun dari 8 jam menjadi 90 menit- jumlah bakteri 15 kali lebih kecil- tidak mengalami case hardening- tidak mengalami case hardeningBiji-bijian : terutama untuk Benih
- meningkatkan laju germinasi
Mengeringkan bagian dalam (tanpa overcooked dipermukaan)
APLIKASI PEMANASAN GEL. MIKRO (UMUM):
•Rumah tangga : microwave oven
•Komersial4Pemanasan tanpa merubah sifat-sifat dasar produk :
th i & d f i (t i )thawing & defrosing (tempering)
4Pemanasan dengan merubah sifat-sifat dasar produk :Pengembangan adonan & pemangganganPemblansiran buah/sayuran : inativasi enzimPemasakan (cooking)Roasting (untuk kacang-kacangan)
4Pengeringan : Dehidrasi pada tekanan normal4Pengeringan : Dehidrasi pada tekanan normalDehidrasi pada tekanan vakum
4Inaktivasi Mikroba :Sterilisasi & Pasteurisasi (kurang sukses ! :

APLIKASI PEMANASAN GEL. MIKRO PADA PROSES PEMANGGANGAN
Utama : ~ membantu proses pengeringan lanjut
Proses pemanggangan dimulai dengan oven tradisional (mengg. udara panas) :
Efektif untuk produk dengan kadar air tinggi
Dengan semakin menurunnya kadar air :efektifitas oven menuruncase hardening?!case hardening?!
Pengeringan/pemanggangan selanjutnya : oven gel. Mikromengeringkan bag dalam (tanpa “overcooked” di permukaan)
APLIKASI PEMANASAN GEL. MIKRO PADA PROSES THAWING :
☺ Konduktivitas panas air < konduktivitas panas esProses pencairan : menurunkan proses pindah panas
☺ Loss factor air > loss factor es
Proses pencairan : menaikan kadar air dan loss factor>>mempercepat proses pemanasanp p p p
☺ Problem : Pada bahan baku yang ukuran besar- proses pencairan tidak seragam- mengakibatkan overcooked pada bagian ttt

Purwiyatno Hariyadi/Alternative Food Processing Technologies – 2010-2011 10
APLIKASI PEMANASAN GEL. MIKRO PADA PROSES DEFROSTING :
Menaikan suhu produk beku: -20oC menjadi -3oC
Untuk daging dan mentega mempermudah penanganan (slicing)
Minimum overcooked
Cepat : ....................> daging dapat didefrost selama 10 menit (tradisional: beberapa hari pada cold room)
Minimum perubahan phase Minimum drip loss (kehilangan karena penetesan)
Mutu meningkat: lebih higienik, lebih cepat, dapat dilakukan di dalam box (pengemas)
Ruang yang diperlukan sedikit
Ekonomis
APLIKASI PEMANASAN GEL. MIKRO PADA PROSES DEHIDRASI :
VS. PEMANASAN TRADISIONAL/UDARA PANAS :
Pindah panas turun : thermal conductivity turun pada bahan pangan kering
Semakin lama waktu pengeringan mutu sensori dan mutu gizi turunOksidasi tinggi : mengakibatkan warna dan vitamin menurun. Untuk produk dengan kadar pufa tinggi, terjadi ketengikanCase hardening : perubahan karakteristik permukaan
>> keras, susah ditembus oleh panas/uap air (kualitas produk menurun)

APLIKASI PEMANASAN GEL. MIKRO PADA PROSES DEHIDRASI :
VS. PEMANASAN GELOMBANG MIKRO :
Memanaskan bahan dari dalam :Tidak ada masalah ttg konduktivitas panasTidak memanaskan udara : mrengurangi ksidasi rendahTidak terjadi case hardening
(pindah massa/uap air .........> lancar)
Umumnya dipakai untuk mengeringkan semi/partly dried foodsUmumnya dipakai untuk mengeringkan semi/partly dried foods, dimana gel. Mikro akan tetap memanaskan daerah yang masih basah, tanpa mempengaruhi daerah/bagian yang sudah kering.

APLIKASI PEMANASAN GEL. MIKRO : LAIN-LAIN

Historical Timeline1895 H. Royer uses high pressure to kill bacteria.1899 Bert H. Hite at the West Virginia Agricultural
Experimental Station examined pressure effects on milk, t f it d t blmeat, fruits and vegetables.
1914 P. W. Bridgman coagulated egg albumen under high pressure.
1990 First commercial products like fruit juices, jams, fruit toppings and tenderized meats introduced in Japan.
1995 Orange juice commercialized in France.1997 Market introduction of guacamole in the US and sliced
cooked ham in Spain.1999 Oysters introduced in the US.2000 Range of salsas launched in the US market.
High hydrostatic pressure
• Foods "pasteurized" by HHP undergo pressures ofFoods pasteurized by HHP undergo pressures of up to 80,000 psi at or near ambient temperatures (under 45°C).
• Under these conditions, HHP is effective in inactivating most vegetative pathogens commonly found in the foods.
• Commercially available HHP-processed products in E d A i i l d j i j j lli tEurope and Asia include juices, jams, jellies, meat and yogurts.
• Consumers in this country can buy HPP-processed guacamole and oysters.

High hydrostatic pressure
• There is significant commercial interest in development of other products.
• Food processed by HHP reportedly has better retention of flavor, texture, color, and nutrients.
• The processing cost is slightly higher (two to three cents per pound) than for conventional processescents per pound) than for conventional processes.
How High ??
Two elephants balanced on a piston with a cross section of a dime will create a pressure of 400 Mega Pascal (Mpa). This is approximately 60,000 pounds per square inch.

HHP processing
• High Pressure can kill microorganisms byHigh Pressure can kill microorganisms by interrupting with their cellular function without the use of heat that can damage the taste, texture, and nutritional value of the food.
HHP processing
• The "mechanism" of high-pressure based bacteria kill is low d d t t th f ti f h i lenergy and does not promote the formation of new chemical
compounds, "radiolytic" by-products, or free-radicals. • Vitamins, texture and flavor are basically unchanged. • For example, enzymes can remain active in high pressure
produced orange juice.

Two things must be done.
Thermally-assisted high-pressure lifts quality of shelf-stable foods
What's needed to commercialize UHP for sterilizing shelf-stable products?
First, develop the kinetic information necessary to file a petition with the FDA and USDA. To do that, we have to select the most heat and pressure-resistant strain of Clostridium botulinum. That work is underway with the Dual Use Science & Technology (DUST) Program 2000 headed by Dr. Patrick Dunne at the U. S. Army Natick Soldier Center in Natick, Mass. Dual use refers to developing the technology for both military and industrial applications.
Second, we need commercial-size, inexpensive high-pressure vessels. Flow International Corp. (Kent, Wash.) is nearest to delivering that right now. They have a 215-liter vessel which is very close to all the critical parameters for delivering a sterile product. They're leading with the technology, and just need to build a vessel to order.
