Pulsed electric field treatment for roots, tubers, and fruits

Processes and Softens High-Volume Food Products Efficiently

The Elea PEF Advantage Belt System series, manufactured in Germany by Elea Technology, is a high-capacity solution tailored for efficient processing of various food and beverage products. It employs pulsed electric fields to soften and prepare vegetables, roots, and fruits, optimizing them for cutting and subsequent processing stages. With models like the B 10, B 100, and the new B 1000-850, the system is designed to handle up to 100 tons per hour, making it ideal for high-volume operations in industries such as potato processing, vegetable preparation, and juice production.

This energy-efficient system reduces energy and oil consumption by up to 90%, replacing traditional blanching methods with low-temperature processing that enhances product quality and texture. The continuous treatment belt ensures uniform treatment across all product types, whether solid, liquid, or slurry, resulting in smooth cuts, reduced breakage, and improved drying processes.

Elea’s PEF Advantage Belt systems are fully automated with 24/7 operation capability and integrate seamlessly into existing production lines. They feature PLC control with options for remote monitoring, thus offering ease of operation and maintenance. Constructed from high-quality stainless steel, these systems are designed for durability and easy sanitation, meeting CE and FDA standards. Customization is available to meet specific production needs, supported by Elea’s expert engineering team, ensuring that each system is tailored to deliver optimal performance.
