Pasteurizer is a type of equipment that uses the pasteurization method to thermally treat liquid foods such as milk, beer, and fruit juice. Its core objective is to eliminate harmful pathogens while preserving the nutritional content and original flavor of the food to the greatest extent possible.
The principle of pasteurization is based on the fact that most pathogens are heat-sensitive. The equipment precisely controls the heating temperature and duration to kill bacteria, followed by immediate rapid cooling to prevent any remaining heat-resistant bacteria from multiplying, thereby extending the food’s shelf life.
Flash Pasteurizer and Tunnel Pasteurizer are two core types of pasteurization equipment.
