Abstract
- The kinetics of sucrose (pH 2.5), Blue#2 (pH 11.3) and Blue#2 (pH 9.5) were determined for high food processing temperatures. A traditional batch kinetic data generation and a novel continuous flow method were examined. The novel method consisted of a tubular flow reactor designed to establish the time-temperature equivalent points for any process. Activation energy values determined for the continuous method were 46.0, 27.2 and 52.3 kJ/mol for sucrose, Blue#2 (pH 11.3) and Blue#2(pH 9.5), respectively. Values utilizing the traditional batch (capillary tube) generation method yielded 94.6, 58.2 and 74.5 kJ/mol, respectively. Based on these results, a new thermal evaluation technique is proposed for describing difficult to define continuous flow systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
