PEF – Pulsed Electric Field
PEF – revolutionizing the food industry.
High performance pulse generators and turnkey solutions for ELECTROPORATION and PEF (Pulsed Electric Field) in food processing.
PEF – Pulsed Electric Field
Our proven technology makes it possible, where other technologies have not yet succeeded.
ScandiNova offers modern, reliable and energy efficient pulse generators for Electroporation and Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) processing of food. We provide pulse generators, compact standard PEF chambers for research/testing purpose and complete PEF systems together with our partner Heat&Control.
Our unique solid-state technology that have had great success in particle physics, cancer therapy and selected industrial applications is the basis of our offer also for electroporation. Our solutions are already successfully installed in several PEF systems for research and production of potato chips.
PEF – Pulsed Electric Field
Reliable and Compact With High Efficiency
ScandiNova offers pulse generators for electroporation of a variety of foods, such as potatoes, juice and olive oil. We offer both standard pulse generators and customized solutions that handle a wide range of needs all the way up to 100kW.
With ScandiNova proven PulsTechnology inside, we garantee leading up time and minimized consumables. The unique solid-state technology also means compact devices easily integrated with high flexibility. All our generators within the PG-SERIES are equipped with ScandiNova’s modern and user friendly control system – ScandiCAT™. The products also have a very resistant casing to withstand demanding industrial applications which make them a perfect choice for food processing.
Turn key solutions together with Heat and Control
Heat and Control, a world leading manufacturer and supplier of food processing and packaging systems and ScandiNova together deliver next generation Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) and Electroporation systems. The partnership combines Heat and Control’s market leading expertise in food production equipment system and automation with ScandiNova’s break-through technology and industry leading PEF solution.
Heat and Control’s E-FLO™ electroporation system that features ScandiNova PEF solution, will bring a new approach to product quality, line efficiency and energy savings. Initially, targeting the potato product sector (snack food, french fries and other potato products).
PEF Chambers for research & testing
ScandiNova offers dedicated solutions for research & testing of the PEF technology. Our solutions, including a pulse generator and a PEF chamber prototype, can easily be adopted to your specific needs regarding type of food, size and pulse specifications.
Electroporation of food offers many benefits compared to traditional thermal heating including energy savings, increased product quality and reduction of acrylamide. However, since the technology is recently introduced to the food processing industry, both research institutes and food processing manufacturers are performing intensive research to refine and optimise the technology for different types of foods. ScandiNova’s research solutions are already installed at several institutes, thus contributing to new insights.
What is PEF?
Solutions for all kinds of food
In principle, ScandiNova’s PEF technology can be applied to all types of food. Initially our focus will be on the consumer potato products sector, chips, french fries and other potato products.
ScandiNova’s cutting edge technology enables PEF
The Pulse Modulators from ScandiNova support the establishment of the PEF method within the food industry. Our unique Solid-state technology offers compact and durable products and the perfect pulse also leads to high energy efficiency. This makes PEF possible where old techniques have not yet succeeded. In addition to increased food quality, PEF also leads to energy and environmental savings, which are strong driving forces for our product development.
