The food industry is regulated by a series of laws and standards that guarantee the quality and safety of food. One of the fundamental principles of food safety is the control of microbial contamination.
The objective of the Microbial Pollution Control is to minimize the risk of diseases and food toxoinfections through the maintenance of good hygiene practices and the use of effective hygiene techniques.
One of the most used hygiene techniques in the food industry is the autoclave and Kalstein as manufacturers has it, is a pressure chamber that is used to sterilize equipment and materials by heating the air inside the autoclave chamber at a temperature between 121°C and 134°C that penetrates the pores of equipment and materials, destroys all bacteria and microorganisms present.
Importance of Use
The autoclave is a very effective hygienic technique that is used worldwide to sterilize equipment and materials in the food sector. The equipment is a variant of the traditional autoclave that uses gas instead of air to generate the steam needed for sterilization. Its importance lies in the efficiency of this innovative tool in the disinfection of equipment and materials, because gas is hotter than air and therefore generates steam at a higher temperature.
Also, the higher temperature generates denser and more active vapor that is able to penetrate the pores of equipment and materials more forcefully and destroy all bacteria and microorganisms present. It also has the advantage that it is fast where processes usually take between 15 and 30 minutes, while in a traditional autoclave it can take up to 2 hours.
Advantages of the Autoclave for the Food Sector
The gas autoclave is a highly efficient sanitizing technique that offers a number of advantages over traditional equipment. Its use in the food sector is very important and offers the following advantages:
- Guarantees the quality of food: Gas autoclave is a very effective hygienic technique that eliminates all bacteria and microorganisms present in equipment and materials.
