HPP (High Pressure Processing)
HPP High Pressure Processing
(High-Pressure Processing, HPP)01.
HPP Technology Principle
- A non-thermal pasteurization technology that applies high pressure to control microorganisms while preserving the freshness of food.
High-Pressure Generation and Retention
Packaged food is placed in a high-pressure vessel, filled with water, and pressurized to 400–600 MPa.
Uniform Pressure Transmission / Microbial Inactivation
Uniform pressure inactivates microorganisms by disrupting their cell membranes and structures.
Preservation of Food Quality
HPP controls microorganisms and enzymes while preserving taste, aroma, color, and nutritional value.
