In 1922, the first canned wet pet food made of horse meat hit the US market. Due to the product’s popularity, farmers started breeding horses to supply the demand for wet pet food.
Nowadays, wet pet food is no longer made of horse meat, but of chicken, fish, beef and pork and also vegetables, grains and added vitamins and minerals. Wet pet food processing involves different steps such as weighing, grinding, mixing, packaging, and sterilization.

Wet pet food

Ready-to-eat meals were once considered a convenience purchase, but new specialty options satisfy the appetite for functional foods and alternative diets. Ready meals combine different processed foods in single portions, so packaging is a critical part of the offering. Aside from shelf visibility, containers must maintain food quality while ensuring responsible disposal. Ready meal preparation today provides more than a quick bite. The foods and packaging are meant to nourish people and planet.

Industrial autoclaves are hermetic containers that kill microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, and spores by using steam under high pressure. The steam is pumped at a higher pressure than normal atmospheric pressure to reach a temperature of 121–140 °C. As steam is pumped into the main chamber of the autoclave, it replaces air and creates a vacuum seal. The pressure vessel kills pathogens and microbes, but industrial autoclaves may also be used to reinforce composite materials, and laminate surfaces. Sensitive products such as foods and pharmaceuticals typically use wet steam autoclaves to sterilize containers and instruments because moisture can penetrate tight areas. But other applications, such as wood treatment or rubber vulcanizing, may also be subjected to dry steam techniques.

Food

Industrial sterilization processes are employed in different industries to completely eliminate all living microorganisms from the final product. For instance, in food processing, sterilization equipment is used to produce a stable product with a long shelf-life by eradicating harmful bio-contaminants. Instead, in the medical field, sterilization technologies aim to prevent the transmission of microbes to patients by sterilizing all the tools and medical devices that come in contact with the patient. Most sterilization equipment, such as autoclaves, employs high-temperature pressurized steam to destroy bacteria and disinfect surfaces from spores. Other methods include radiation sterilization or using chemicals such as hydrogen peroxide for disinfection.

Sterilization

Our food chain starts in the soil, growing crops and livestock. But between the fields and the stores, there is a line of industrial food processing equipment. Processes may be as minimalistic as cleaning fruit and as complex as homogenizing milk alternatives made from pressed legumes. In each case, processing technology is an important link in the food production chain.
