Analysis of promising electrophysical methods for food products thawing

https://doi.org/10.21323/2414-438X-2026-11-1-106-120

Аннотация

This article summarizes the results of research published in scientific publications on application of innovative food thawing methods and their impact on quality of the food product. The thawing processes for food systems were scrutinized, which involve high hydrostatic pressure, ultrasound, electromagnetic waves of various frequencies, and electric fields. It has been established that gradient-free methods that use electromagnetic wave energy are the most effective. They reduce the duration of thawing processes, reduce the risk of microbial contamination, and help preserve the quality of food systems. The selection of the optimal thawing method should be based on a systemic approach and should consider multiple factors, including the type of food product, its geometric shape and dimensions, chemical composition, as well as the requirements to the final product quality and economic feasibility considerations.
