Electron beam (eBeam) irradiation
also known as eBeam pasteurization, eBeam processing, eBeam treatment, eBeam technology, and electronic pasteurization, is the use of high energy electrons to disinfect/pasteurize/sterilize items such as fresh produce, ground beef patties, medical devices, and pharmaceutical products.
How Safe It Is?
This is an extremely safe technology with over 100 years of actual usage in a variety of industries. There are no issues whatsoever to the personnel involved in delivering the doses, nor is there any danger to the fresh produce being treated. Of course, normal industrial occupational safety standards have to be followed when using this technology since the process involves high voltage and energies.
Pros and Cons.
eBeam processing is a non-thermal technology that has significant potential for use in the fresh produce industry. Since no heat is involved, this technology can be used to eliminate microbial pathogens (bacteria, viruses, and protozoa) as well as extend the shelf-life of produce without having to rely on chemicals.
