Title: Procede de conservation de matiere organique en morceaux et procede de production de matiere organique en morceaux conservee
Inventor: WOLFRAM JENS
IPC: A23L27/00
Filed: 2010-11-17
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé pour conserver de la matière organique en morceaux, par exemple des aliments tels que des fruits, des végétaux et des parties de ceux-ci, des animaux de petite taille et de la matière animale en morceaux, mais aussi de la matière organique en morceaux non alimentaire, par ex. des fleurs coupées, par utilisation d'un solvant déshydraté et par séchage dans un appareil de séchage. L'invention a également pour objet un procédé de production de matière organique en morceaux conservée. Selon l'invention, la matière organique en morceaux est séchée dans l'appareil de séchage en la présence du solvant à des températures inférieures à 100°C de préférence dans un lit fluidisé. Cela présente l'avantage d'impliquer des températures de séchage significativement inférieures à celles de la lyophilisation, ainsi que des temps de séchage sensiblement plus courts, ce qui conduit à un rendement énergétique significativement amélioré et à un caractère écologique supérieur. Un avantage d'importance est également le processus de séchage délicat au cours duquel la matière organique en morceaux conserve dans une large mesure sa forme d'origine, sa couleur et aussi ses constituants.
