- the liquid food in order to obtain a sufficient bactericidal and enzyme inactivating effect, the liquid food must be retained for a predetermined time in a state in which a sufficient amount of carbon dioxide has been dissolved. Needs to be determined.

To form microbubbles, and the remaining carbon dioxide is extracted and removed into the microbubbles of the inert gas.
- the method for agitating and circulating the liquid food is not particularly limited. It is preferable to use the processing apparatus A or the liquid food processing apparatus B including a baffle plate fixed to the inner wall of the processing tank, a turbine-type stirring blade rotating in the processing tank, and a propeller-type stirring blade.
- the pressurized carbon dioxide in the present invention may be in a liquid, gas or supercritical state, and is preferably carbon dioxide in a state near the evaporation line in the phase diagram. Specifically, carbon dioxide having a temperature of 10 to 60 ° C, preferably 10 to 30 ° C, and a pressure of 20 to 300 atm, preferably 40 to 100 atm It is. Pressurized carbon dioxide must have a density lower than that of liquid food, but if the conditions above are appropriately selected, the density of pressurized carbon dioxide can easily be made smaller than the density of liquid food. Can be.
- the pressurized carbon dioxide in the present invention is supplied from a storage tank filled with liquefied carbon dioxide gas as a supply source, but may be supplied under pressure by a pump if necessary. Alternatively, the pressure can be increased to a predetermined pressure and stored in a storage tank, and this can be used as a direct supply source.
- the temperature of the liquid food can be monitored by a temperature sensor, and the pressure in the processing tank can be monitored by a pressure sensor.
- the pressure in the processing tank is adjusted by controlling the pressure pump based on the output of the pressure sensor attached to the processing tank.
- the treatment tank does not require a pressure control valve.
- a liquid food processing apparatus A having a built-in hollow shaft provided with a gas dispersing apparatus having a gas suction port and a plurality of small holes and a stirring blade, which is suitable for performing the liquid food processing method of the present invention, is used. Then, the method for treating liquid food of the present invention will be described in more detail.
- a gas dispersing unit having a gas suction port and By rotating the hollow shaft provided with the stirring blades in the liquid food, a decompression portion was created at the tip of the gas dispersion device (gas generation unit), and as a result, it was protruded from the end of the hollow shaft. Pressurized carbon dioxide is sucked through the inside of the hollow shaft from the suction port, and the carbon dioxide can be made into microbubbles by the shearing force of the gas dispersing device to be dispersed in the radial direction of the treatment tank.
- the radial dispersion of pressurized carbon dioxide generated in this way is spread in the vertical direction in the radial direction by the stirring blades arranged on the hollow shaft, and the liquid food is circulated in the processing tank in the vertical direction.
- the bias of the concentration distribution of the dissolved carbon dioxide in the treatment tank can be eliminated, and the concentration distribution of the dissolved carbon dioxide can be made uniform in the treatment tank.
- the pressurized carbon dioxide can be efficiently dissolved in the liquid food without losing the aroma of the liquid food.
- the concentration of dissolved carbon dioxide cannot be sufficiently increased in the processing tank of the Dead-end method.
- the scent of liquid food is extracted by pressurized carbon dioxide and discharged from the treatment tank together with pressurized carbon dioxide, so that the fragrance of the liquid food is weakened.
- pressurized carbon dioxide and an inert gas must be supplied into the liquid food, but in this case, the treatment of the liquid food that has entered the inside of the concave portion of the supply port is improper. It is feared that it will be sufficient. This is the same in a treatment tank system in which pressurized carbon dioxide is circulated externally.
- the amount (volume) of pressurized carbon dioxide that comes into contact with the liquid food is determined by the carbon dioxide suction power generated by rotating the hollow shaft and rotating the carbon dioxide gas generator.
- the carbon dioxide suction capacity is preferably 4 to 2 Om 3 h as the volume of pressurized carbon dioxide per lm 3 of the processing tank.
- the suction capacity is less than 4 m 3 Zh, dissolution rate of carbon dioxide into the liquid food is reduced, the time required for dissolving carbon dioxide process tended to be longer, larger than 2 0 m 3 Zh Introducing pressurized carbon dioxide to increase the hold-up volume of liquid food in the treatment tank It becomes necessary to increase the space above the processing tank.
- the number of revolutions when rotating the gas generating section or the stirring blade around the hollow shaft depends on the diameter of the gas generating section and the type of liquid food to be processed. For example, in the case of orange juice, 100 to 60 0 rpm is preferred.
- the rotation speed is less than 100 rpm, the amount of pressurized carbon dioxide or microbubbles of inert gas in the liquid food becomes insufficient, and the dissolution of carbon dioxide in the first step is prolonged. Not only does it take time, but the efficiency of removing the remaining carbon dioxide in the third step is reduced.
- the vertical circulation of the liquid food by the stirring blade is reduced, it tends to be difficult to suppress the concentration polarization of volatile components such as aroma components.
- the liquid food is stirred by stirring the liquid food with stirring blades.
- the product can be circulated in the vertical direction, and the concentration of dissolved carbon dioxide in the liquid food can be made uniform at all places in the treatment tank.
- the rotation speed of these stirring blades is 60 r ⁇ ⁇ ! ⁇ 600 rpm is preferred.
- the stirring speed becomes lower than 60 rpm, there is a tendency that the diffusion of dissolved carbon dioxide near the wall of the treatment tank decreases, and the disinfection effect tends to decrease.
- the rotation speed exceeds 600 rpm, the power consumption increases and the deterioration of the sealing means of the hollow shaft tends to accelerate.
- the carbon dioxide discharged from the treatment tank is further pressurized, and the carbon dioxide liquefied and cooled and stored in the storage tank can be reused as necessary. At this time, it is also possible to separate and remove unnecessary volatile components.
- the gas, liquid, or supercritical state can be directly reused without special pressure adjustment, heating, or cooling.
- pressurized carbon dioxide In order to reuse pressurized carbon dioxide, it is possible to directly reuse pressurized carbon dioxide by arranging a plurality of processing tanks and providing a time lag between the processing steps performed in each processing tank. In other words, it is possible to move directly from the preceding treatment tank, which has completed the step of holding the dissolved carbon dioxide under pressure, to the upper space of the next treatment tank filled with a certain amount of liquid food via the pressurized carbon dioxide outlet. it can. This operation recycles about 50% of the carbon dioxide. In order to further increase the recycling rate, it is necessary to transfer carbon dioxide via a pressurized pump. The logarithm of the rate of liquid food sterilization and enzyme deactivation increases linearly with the liquid food processing temperature and dissolved carbon dioxide (dissolved carbon dioxide) concentration. Therefore, after dissolving the pressurized carbon dioxide, the temperature of the liquid food is raised to a predetermined level and maintained for a predetermined time, whereby the microorganisms in the liquid food can be surely killed.
- the inside of the treatment tank ( Pressurized carbon dioxide) can be raised from 30 to 80 &1; 111 to 50 to 300 & tm, and it is preferable to keep the pressure as it is for 3 to 60 minutes.
- these conditions are appropriately changed depending on the type of liquid food.
- the pressure of pressurized carbon dioxide becomes higher than 300 atm, it tends to require a lot of cost to increase the pressure resistance of the treatment tank, and as the pressure becomes lower than 50 atm, sterilization becomes more likely. The effect tends to be smaller.
- the quality of the liquid food tends to decrease as the temperature of the heated liquid food rises above 65 ° C, and the sterilizing effect tends to become insufficient as the temperature falls below 30 ° C. Is seen.
- the number of surviving bacteria tends to increase as the holding time is shorter than 3 minutes, and the treatment efficiency tends to decrease as the holding time is longer than 60 minutes.
- the pressure after the pressure reduction is not particularly limited, it is 1 atm (atmospheric pressure) to 20 atm, preferably 5 to 10 atm.
- the pressure after the pressure reduction is higher than 10 atm, the amount (mass) of the inert gas used to remove the dissolved carbon dioxide tends to increase. Can be seen.
- inert gas used in the present invention other than nitrogen, argon, helium and the like can be used as long as they are safe without toxicity and are inert to liquid foods.
- Means for generating the inert gas include, but are not limited to, compression tanks (high-pressure storage tanks), liquefaction tanks, and those obtained by separating nitrogen in the atmosphere at the site.
- a PSA method Pressure swing adsorption method
- inert gas It is preferable to ventilate the cells.
- the dissolved carbon dioxide By extracting the dissolved carbon dioxide into the microbubbles of the inert gas, the dissolved carbon dioxide can be removed. That is, while the microbubbles of the inert gas are being stirred in the liquid food, the dissolved carbon dioxide molecules diffuse into the microbubbles according to Henry's law, are taken into the microbubbles, and become incompatible with the carbon dioxide. The enlarged bubbles composed of the active gas mixture collapse on the liquid level in the treatment tank, and the carbon dioxide is discharged out of the system together with the inert gas. Further, in the step of passing an inert gas into the liquid food, it is possible to suppress concentration polarization of aroma components and the like generated in the liquid food.
- microbubbles of inert gas are generated in the liquid food, and the upflow and downflow can be generated more effectively by using a stirring blade. Can be made uniform. In this case, by providing a partition wall in the treatment tank containing the liquid food, the ascending flow and the descending flow can be generated even more effectively.
- liquid food that is being treated with pressurized carbon dioxide contains 10 to 30 times the volume of carbon dioxide (converted to standard conditions) compared to the liquid food, if the pressure is reduced as it is after the treatment, Intense foaming occurs in liquid food, and a large amount of liquid food overflows from the treatment tank filled with liquid food. In other words, even if a high concentration of dissolved carbon dioxide is contained under pressure, foaming in liquid food caused by depressurization is slight up to 5 to 10 atm, but the pressure is low. As the temperature increases, the foaming of dissolved carbon dioxide increases.
- the reason is that even if the amount (mass) of carbon dioxide emitted per unit time under pressure is large, it is removed in a compressed state, so the volume of carbon dioxide separated from liquid food is small. is there.
- the compression rate in the treatment tank is low even if the amount of carbon dioxide removed per unit time is small, Intense foaming occurs in the interior.
- the pressure is reduced by directly discharging carbon dioxide from the processing tank up to the processing pressure of 5 to 10 atm, and after that, it is not pressurized. It is preferable to carry out aeration and agitation of microbubbles of the active gas.
- the dissolved carbon dioxide can be removed by extracting the dissolved carbon dioxide with an inert gas without expanding, while suppressing foaming.
- the inert gas nitrogen
- the inert gas has a solubility in an aqueous solution that is almost 1/25 that of carbon dioxide, so that the liquid food from which carbon dioxide is separated does not show any foaming properties.
- the supply pressure of the inert gas is determined in consideration of the following factors.
- the dissolved carbon dioxide can be separated by depressurization without ventilating inert gas from 5 to 10 atm. After the pressure of the liquid food drops to about 5 to 10 atm, it is preferable to extract and separate dissolved carbon dioxide by passing an inert gas pressurized to the same degree. At this time, the pressure of the inert gas supplied along with the removal of the dissolved carbon dioxide can be reduced.
- Means for heating or cooling liquid foods ⁇
- one or more coils with heating and cooling media inserted inside the treatment tank and inside the treatment tank are covered, and between the treatment tank and Jacket with heating / cooling medium inserted, inside processing tank Heating / cooling method using one or more plate-type heat exchangers and the like arranged in the above, but is not limited thereto. Water, steam, oil, or the like is used as the heating / cooling medium.
- a baffle plate fixed to the inner wall surface of the processing tank, a one-bottle type stirring blade provided near the liquid surface, and a lower part thereof are provided below.
- the propeller-type stirring blade in the treatment tank By rotating the propeller-type stirring blade in the treatment tank, the introduced pressurized carbon dioxide or inert gas and the liquid food are efficiently mixed, and the concentration of pressurized carbon dioxide or inert gas in the treatment tank is reduced. It can be uniform at all positions. That is, a large number of air bubbles can be generated near the liquid surface by stirring with the evening bottle type stirring blade provided near the liquid surface and the baffle plate fixed to the processing tank.
- the position of the turbine type stirring blade is provided near the liquid surface, and the position can vary depending on the volume of the processing tank, the diameter of the stirring blade, the rotation speed, and the like. It is arranged to generate active gas below the liquid surface as fine bubbles.
- the baffle plate will be installed at the same depth as the turbine type stirring blade. Thus, the circular motion caused by the rotational motion of the turbine-type stirring blade is suppressed by the baffle plate, and bubbles can be effectively generated near the tip of the turbine-type stirring blade.
