The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) has joined up with the Fraunhofer Institute and Evonta-Service to improve access to electron beam technology in the Australian food industry.
Electron beam emitters are being used by researchers to find ways of replacing thermal and chemical processes for cleaner, more efficient, lower-cost manufacturing and greener packaging.
Texas A&M University's Institute of Food Science &
Engineering has said it has received a USDA grant to establish a
centre for research into electron beam research - a move that could
well be pivotal in the more widespread...
SureBeam, a leading provider of food hygiene technology in the US,
has been awarded a US patent on an in-line processing system that
is said to form food products, such as ground beef, into optimal
configurations for irradiation processing.
