OptiCept offers PEF applications for the food industry to enhance the processing of various foodstuffs. You’ll get an in-depth overview of PEF technology.
PEF technology offers multiple benefits that align well with current industry trends and consumer demands. Its ability to enhance food safety, preserve nutritional and sensory quality, improve process efficiency, and support sustainability makes it a compelling choice for the food industry. Hence, implementing PEF can lead to significant advancements in product quality, operational cost savings, and environmental impact reduction, ultimately driving the industry forward.
Food products, such as oil emulsions, aceite de oliva, juices, potatoes, dairy products, and more – can transfer electricity because of the presence of ions, giving the product in question a certain degree of electrical conductivity. Therefore, when an electrical field is applied, electrical current flows into the commodity and is transferred to each point in the liquid because of the charged molecules present.
When applied to foods or beverages, the electric pulses create temporary pores or holes in the cell membranes of microorganisms, such as bacteria and yeasts, present in the substance.
Consequently, this disruption of the cell membranes can lead to the inactivation or destruction of the microorganisms, thereby extending the shelf life of the product and reducing the need for traditional thermal processing methods like pasteurization.
1. Electroporation:
One of the primary effects of PEF is electroporation. Electroporation refers to the temporary formation of pores or channels in the cell membranes of biological cells within the substrate. These pores allow for the passage of ions, molecules, and particles that would not normally cross the cell membrane. Electroporation occurs due to the high electric field strength applied during PEF.
2. Permeabilization:
Electroporation and permeabilization are often (or can be) used interchangeably. The electroporation of cell membranes leads to increased permeability, allowing substances present in the surrounding environment (e.g., solutes, ions, compounds) to enter the cells more easily. This enhanced permeabilization can have various applications, such as facilitating the extraction of intracellular compounds or aiding in the uptake of desired molecules.
3. Microbial Inactivation:
PEF can cause damage to microorganisms present in the substrate. The high-intensity electric field disrupts the cell membranes of bacteria, yeasts, molds, and other microorganisms. This damage can lead to cell death or inactivation, rendering the microorganisms unable to grow, reproduce, or cause spoilage.
4. Enzyme Activation or Inactivation:
PEF can affect enzymatic activity within the substrate. Depending on the specific enzymes and their sensitivity to the electric field, PEF can either activate or inactivate certain enzymes. Therefore the effect can be advantageous in food processing, as it can help preserve the quality, flavor, and nutritional value of the treated product.
5. Structural Changes:
PEF can induce structural changes in the substrate, primarily due to the effects on cellular components. For example, the disruption of cell membranes can lead to changes in the texture, viscosity, or stability of the substrate. These changes can impact the overall quality and properties of the treated material.
The discovery and development of Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) technology can be attributed to key observations and advancements in electrical engineering and biology. Combining principles from these fields, alongside biological studies and practical experimentation, led to the emergence of PEF technology as a method for preserving food and achieving other beneficial effects.
In the late 18th and early 19th centuries, scientists like Luigi Galvani y Alessandro Volta conducted experiments on the effects of electricity on biological tissues. These studies laid the foundation for understanding the interaction between electricity and living organisms.
The first scientist to suggest that PEF could disrupt cell membranes was Hodgkin in 1951. In the 1970s, another scientist, Zimmerman, developed a theoretical model explaining how electrical pulses permeabilized cells.
The initial efforts in food processing using PEF were made by a self-taught engineer, Doevenspeck, in 1960. He patented and built full-scale PEF machines for various food applications, despite lacking a complete understanding of how PEF worked. He collaborated with the giant corporation Krupp into the 1980s, although these efforts did not achieve real commercial success.

A prominent figure in the field of food engineering, Dr. Barbosa-Cánovas from Washington State University has significantly contributed to the research on non-thermal food processing technologies, including PEF. His work encompasses various aspects of food engineering and processing, providing a comprehensive understanding of PEF applications.
It’s essential to understand how PEF compares to other prevalent technologies in food processing, Here is a detailed comparison highlighting key aspects:
PEF technology stands out as a versatile and innovative alternative to conventional methods, particularly for its non-thermal, energy-efficient, and quality-preserving characteristics. It provides a promising solution across various applications, balancing efficacy, safety, and consumer preferences. However, the choice between PEF and other technologies ultimately depends on specific application requirements, product characteristics, and economic considerations.
PEF technology operates on a set of scientific principles that leverage electrical energy to achieve desired outcomes, particularly in enhancing mass transfer, inactivation of microorganisms, and preservation of food quality. Here, we delve into the core aspects that define how PEF technology works:
PEF technology involves the application of short (Micro to milliseconds) bursts of high voltage to a product placed between two electrodes.
The electric field is generated when a high-voltage pulse is applied across the electrodes, creating a potential difference in the food matrix.
Power Supply: Converts electrical energy from a standard source into high-voltage pulses.
Pulse Generator: Controls the timing, duration, and intensity of the pulses.
Treatment Chamber: Contains the electrodes and the product, ensuring the proper delivery of the electric field.
The generated electric field disrupts the cell membranes in the food matrices.
The strength of the electric field (measured in kV/cm) is critical, with typical values ranging from 1 to 40 kV/cm, depending on the application.
Unipolar Pulses: Consists of single-direction pulses, simpler to generate but can cause more significant electrical stress on the product.
Bipolar Pulses: Alternating positive and negative pulses, which can reduce electrochemical reactions and improve treatment uniformity.
Pulse Duration: The length of each pulse, typically in the range of microseconds to milliseconds. Shorter pulses are often more effective at preserving the quality of the treated product.
Pulse Frequency: The number of pulses per second, measured in Hertz (Hz). Higher frequencies can enhance microbial inactivation but may require more sophisticated equipment.
Pulse Shape: This can be square, exponential decay, or oscillatory, with each shape influencing the efficiency of the process.
La eficacia del tratamiento PEF está determinada por la combinación de parámetros del pulso, incluida la intensidad del campo eléctrico, la duración del pulso y la frecuencia.
Optimizing these parameters ensures maximum microbial inactivation while maintaining the quality of the treated product.
The primary mechanism of PEF involves electroporation, where the cell membranes of microorganisms become permeabilized due to the applied electric field.
This permeabilization occurs because the electric field induces a potential difference across the cell membrane, causing pore formation.
When PEF is applied to biological cells it causes pore formation allowing for the content to be released without adding any heat.
The created pores lead to a loss of cellular integrity and eventually cell death, effectively inactivating microorganisms.
This process is highly efficient and occurs rapidly, within microseconds to milliseconds of exposure.
PEF technology minimizes thermal damage, preserving the sensory and nutritional qualities of food products.
The non-thermal nature ensures that vitamins, flavors, and textures are largely retained, unlike traditional thermal processing methods.
PEF can selectively target microbial cells while leaving the surrounding material, such as food matrices, largely unaffected.
This selective action is beneficial in applications where maintaining the original characteristics of the product is essential.
Microbial cells (yeast, mold, and bacteria) have specific structural and functional properties that make them susceptible to the electric field.
Nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, and bioactive compounds do not have cell membranes like microorganisms do. PEF targets and disrupts cell membranes specifically, leaving non-membranous structures and compounds largely unaffected.
The operation of PEF technology is grounded in the precise control of electric field generation and pulse characteristics, which together disrupt the membranes of biological cells.
This mechanism ensures enhanced mass/material transfer as in enhanced extraction of juices from respective pulps, and effective microbial inactivation while preserving the quality of the treated product. Therefore, PEF is a versatile and efficient technology for various applications.
The effectiveness and efficiency of PEF technology heavily rely on the specialized equipment and components used in the process. Here, we explore the critical elements that make up a PEF system.

Pulse Duration: Refers to the length of time each electric pulse is applied, typically measured in microseconds to milliseconds. Shorter pulses are often preferred as they can minimize heat generation and preserve product quality.
Pulse Frequency: The number of pulses delivered per second, measured in Hertz (Hz). Higher frequencies can increase the rate of microbial inactivation but may also raise the energy demand and equipment complexity.
Definition: The intensity of the electric field applied to the product, measured in kilovolts per centimeter (kV/cm). Typical electric field strengths for PEF range from 1 to 40 kV/cm, depending on the application and product.
Impact: Higher electric field strengths can more effectively permeabilize cell membranes and inactivate microorganisms. This must be optimized to balance effectiveness with potential impacts on product quality and energy consumption.
Importance: Although PEF is primarily a non-thermal technology, temperature control is crucial to prevent undesirable heating effects.
Cooling Mechanisms: Integrated cooling systems in treatment chambers help dissipate heat generated during the pulsing process. Ensures that the temperature remains within safe limits to preserve product quality.
Process Integration: PEF can be combined with mild thermal treatments to enhance microbial inactivation while still maintaining the benefits of non-thermal preservation.
PEF technology relies on precise control over specialized equipment and critical process parameters to ensure effective and efficient treatment. Generators, treatment chambers, and electrodes work together to deliver high-voltage pulses, while parameters like pulse duration, frequency, electric field strength, and temperature must be carefully managed to optimize results and maintain product quality.
