Benefits of OptiCepts technology in juice production

Global distribution often means challenges when it comes to shelf life. Extending shelf-life often means pasteurization – giving the juice a longer life span, but also destroying much of its rich content. The antioxidants and vitamins are degraded during processing and pasteurization.

 

Treating juice with the OPTICEPT®  PEF system for juice shows outstanding results

 

CEPT® (Closed Environment Pulsed Electric Field Treatment) is a patented technology developed by OptiCept Technologies based on PEF. It is a method developed to process biomass such as juices, olive oil, potatoes, dried fruits and vegetablesE other products.

 

CEPT® is a sustainable and eco-friendly method since it reduces organic waste, extends shelf-life, and enhances and preserves the quality of the product in question. The technology has proven very effective for the treatment of juices.

 

Il OPTICEPT® system deploys a technology for juice production that improves the yield and the quality of an extracted juice from fruits, berries, and vegetables.

 

The method has shown great results in various fruit and vegetable juices, like More, passion fruitE pineapple.

The treatment is continuous and easy to retrofit into existing juice’ extraction lines.
