Discover the potential of Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) technology in modern potato processing at Elea’s PEF Advantage Day 2024.

Elea Technology, a global leader in Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) technology, is set to host its highly anticipated event, PEF Advantage Day 2024, on September 25th in Quakenbrueck, Germany. The event is designed for industry professionals in the potato processing sector, offering a detailed exploration of how PEF technology is revolutionizing the production of potato chips, French fries, and other processed potato products.

As the potato processing industry faces increasing demands for efficiency, quality, and sustainability, Elea’s innovations are at the forefront of meeting these challenges. PEF technology, along with the complementary CutControl device, offers a transformative approach to potato processing that delivers substantial benefits across the production line.

Revolutionizing Potato Processing with PEF Technology

PEF technology works by applying short pulses of high-voltage electricity to potato products, resulting in enhanced texture, reduced frying times, lower oil content, and improved cutting precision. The “PEF-effect” has been shown to improve product quality by ensuring a more consistent and uniform texture, while also providing environmental benefits such as reduced energy consumption, water usage, and CO2 emissions.

At PEF Advantage Day 2024, attendees will have the opportunity to experience the benefits of PEF firsthand. Elea will demonstrate how PEF treatment reduces frying time, cuts down on oil absorption, and improves the overall texture of potato products, ensuring that they meet the increasing demand for healthier, higher-quality food options. Furthermore, the introduction of the CutControl device optimizes the cutting process, ensuring greater consistency and reducing waste.

Environmental and Economic Benefits

PEF technology does more than enhance product quality. It plays a critical role in improving the sustainability of potato processing operations. By significantly reducing frying time, PEF treatment leads to lower energy and water consumption, aligning with global sustainability goals. This makes it an ideal solution for processors looking to reduce their environmental footprint while increasing productivity.

In addition to sustainability, PEF technology offers economic advantages. Reduced frying times mean lower energy costs, while more efficient cutting processes lead to less waste. Together, these innovations provide a clear pathway to greater profitability for potato processors.

Why Attend PEF Advantage Day 2024?

The event offers an unparalleled opportunity for industry professionals to explore how PEF technology can be integrated into their operations to enhance production efficiency, reduce costs, and improve sustainability. Elea Technology is well-regarded for its innovations that streamline processing operations, and this event is designed to provide attendees with practical insights into implementing these solutions.

Whether participants are focused on improving the texture and quality of their potato products or are interested in optimizing their energy usage and minimizing waste, PEF Advantage Day 2024 will provide actionable knowledge to help take their operations to the next level.
