Food Safety Case Studies

  1. Leak Testing Of Coffee Packaging 8/24/2007
    Coffee manufacturers are always seeking reliable inspection methods for coffee packaging, especially for new production lines or start-up projects that require new and improved inspection methods for both offline and online testing. PTI has manufactured and installed inspection systems for coffee packaging...
  2. Hydrogen Peroxide Vapor (HPV) Bio-Decontamination Of A Food Production Facility

    Abnormal bioburden levels of Salmonella and Listeria were observed in a food processing plant. Bioquell’s Professional Services team was commissioned to undertake hydrogen peroxide vapor (HPV) bio-decontamination.

  3. Pasteurization In A Laboratory Glassware Washer

    Typically, pasteurization is performed with a benchtop pasteurization system in a stove-top immersion bath. Bottles are immersed in boiling water and held at temperature for a given amount of time. The problem is while the immersion process is inexpensive, it is neither accurate nor controlled, and the benchtop equipment can be expensive and complicated to install and operate. A solution is the laboratory glassware washer which simulates tunnel washer conditions— i.e. the bottles are sprayed with water at a certain temperature.
