Abstract

An HPP system uses large polymer based bags () to increase the amount of food product or other flowable product that can fit into a HPP carrier (). Each baghas a filling fitment (), to which a flow valve () can be attached. The bag () is inserted into the carrier () and then the fitment () is manually or automatically connected to a flow valve (). Next, the product is pumped into the bag () through a hose or pipe () which is attached to the flow valve. Thereafter, the flow valve () is removed and the fitment closed, and then carrier () together with the bag is inserted into the HPP press for high pressure processing of the product. After the HPP process, the flow valve is used to un-fill the treated product from the bag ().
