Instant Controlled Pressure Drop system

The Instant Controlled Pressure Drop system applies a high-pressure steam (maximum 9 bar) in a short period of time. An extremely fast depressurization (less than 200 ms) is then applied which gives the treated product an attractive and new texture. In addition, the formation of pores in the product accelerates its drying leading to an important energy saving. This technique could be used as:

• Assisted drying
• Decontamination
• Extraction
• Lignocellulosic pre-treatment
• Essential oils extraction
