PRAKTIKUM VIII
THERMAL PARAMETERS IN FOODS CANNING

A. INTRODUCTION
Canning is one of the food preservation methods by applying heat to the canned
products. In the canning process, food is classified into two groups, one is the acid
food with a pH less than 4.5, for example, the fruit products, and the other is the non-
acid foods with a pH higher than 4.5 like meat and fish.
The acid food is generally pasteurized, a heating process at 90-100oC to kill and
inactivate a certain type of microorganism. Some horticultural products with a pH
higher than 4.5 could be treated by adding an acid solution with a low pH to meet the
requirement of pasteurization process.
The non-acid food requires higher and longer time in the canning process called
the sterilization, killing all the microorganism at a higher temperature of 100oC. The
sterilization time is calculated upon the reference of the resistancy of Clostridium
botulinum, a toxic bactery, against heat.
The heat resistancy of microorganisms is expressed in Thermal Death Time
(TDT) that is the time required to kill the microorganisms at a certain degree of
temperature until they are left to one tenth of the initial number (Fig. 3.1).
The TDT curve in Fig 3.2 has a slope z, a number of degree (oC) required to
reduce the TDT until one tenth. The z value is specific for each microorganism and
spore. As an example, the z value in Fig 3.2 is 10oC.

process (Lund, 1975).

It can be observed in Fig 3.2 that the heating process for one minute at 121.1 C is
equal to the heating for 10 minutes at 111.1 C or 100 minutes at 101.1 C. In other words,
F0 for the heating process is one minute. F0 is the time required in the sterilization
process at 121.1 C. To understand the concept of F0, an example is given as follows. F0 3
minutes means that the product need to be heated until the temperature of 121.1oC is
reached, then the heating process is maintained for 3 minutes, and after that, the cooling
process is applied.
The value of F0 varies according to the type of food, the can size and pH (Tables 3.1
and 3.2). To evaluate F0 for a heating process, the temperature development of the
slowest heating point should be recorded by a thermocouple sensor. Generally, the
slowest heating point is at the center of the can if the mode of the heat transfer is
conduction when the main food is solid. However, in the convection mode when the food
is liquid, the slowest heating point will move from the center to the one third of the axis
from the bottom of the can. When the food is semi solid and semi liquid, the slowest
heating point will be in between depended upon its components. Fig 3.3 illustrates the
temperature development at the slowest heating point of a can during the sterilization
process in a retort. Data in Fig 3.3, together with the values of F0 and z can be calculated
to determine the lethality of the microorganisms, hence the sterilization time.

PRAKTIKUM IX
PROSES PEMISAHAN DENGAN METODE DISTILASI

A. PENDAHULUAN
Proses ekstraksi atau pemisahan dalam industri pangan perlu dilakukan untuk
mendapatkan komponen-komponen bahan pangan yang spesifik (misalnya menghasilkan
gula dari tebu dan minyak goreng dari kelapa sawit) atau untuk mendapatkan komponen
bahan pangan yang tinggi nilainya (misalnya menghasilkan minyak atsiri dari tanaman
tertentu, enzim papain dari papaya, dan enzim rennet dari perut sapi). Metode pemisahan
bisa melibatkan panas (contoh: evaporasi dan distilasi) atau tanpa melibatkan panas
(contoh: separasi dengan membran, sentrifugasi, dan ekstraksi dengan pelarut (solvent
extraction)).
Proses pemisahan dengan distilasi atau penyulingan adalah salah satu metode
pemisahan campuran komponen berdasarkan perbedaan kecepatan atau kemudahan
menguap (volatilitas) bahan. Suatu bahan dengan campuran komponen tertentu
dididihkan sehingga menguap, dan uap yang kaya akan komponen tertentu dikondensasi
sehingga diperoleh produk tertentu dengan kemurnian yang lebih tinggi. Penggunaan
proses distilasi dalam industry pangan antara lain untuk mengkonsentrasikan minyak
atsiri, perisa (flavor), minuman beralkohol, dan pemurnian asam lemak.
Terdapat empat jenis distilasi yang umum digunakan yaitu distilasi sederhana,
distilasi fraksionasi, distilasi uap, dan distilasi vakum. Pada distilasi sederhana,
perbedaan titik didih yang jauh antar komponennya menjadi dasar pemisahan komponen,
atau dengan kata lain salah satu komponennya bersifat volatil. Komponen yang titik
didihnya lebih rendah akan menguap lebih dulu. Distilasi sederhana dilakukan pada
tekanan atmosfer. Contoh aplikasi umum distilasi adalah pemisahan campuran air dan
alkohol. Salah satu contoh rangkaian alat distilasi sederhana digambarkan pada gambar
1.
Distilasi fraksionasi digunakan untuk memisahkan komponen-komponen cair, dua
atau lebih, dari suatu larutan berdasarkan perbedaan titik didihnya. Distilasi ini juga
dapat digunakan untuk campuran dengan perbedaan titik didih kurang dari 20 °C dan
bekerja pada tekanan atmosfer atau dengan tekanan rendah. Distilasi ini digunakan untuk
merecovery aroma pada pemrosesan juice atau mengisolasi aroma tertentu pada
campuran minyak atsiri. Perbedaan distilasi fraksionasi dan distilasi sederhana adalah
adanya kolom fraksionasi. Di kolom ini terjadi pemanasan secara bertahap dengan suhu
yang berbeda-beda pada setiap platnya. Pemanasan yang berbeda-beda ini bertujuan
untuk pemurnian distilat yang lebih dari plat-plat di bawahnya. Semakin ke atas, semakin
tidak volatil cairannya.
Distilasi uap digunakan pada campuran senyawa-senyawa yang memiliki titik didih
mencapai 200 °C atau lebih. Distilasi uap dapat menguapkan senyawa-senyawa ini
dengan suhu mendekati 100 °C pada tekanan atmosfer dengan menggunakan uap atau air
mendidih. Sifat yang fundamental dari distilasi uap adalah dapat mendistilasi campuran
senyawa di bawah titik didih dari masing-masing senyawa campurannya. Aplikasi dari
distilasi uap adalah untuk mengekstrak beberapa produk alam seperti minyak eucalyptus
dari eucalyptus, minyak sitrus dari lemon atau jeruk, dan untuk ekstraksi minyak parfum
dari tumbuhan. Campuran dipanaskan melalui uap air yang dialirkan ke dalam campuran

Modul TPP 2018[Type text] Page 9


dan mungkin ditambah juga dengan pemanasan.Uap dari campuran akan naik ke atas
menuju ke kondensor dan akhirnya masuk ke labu distilat.
Distilasi vakum biasanya digunakan jika senyawa yang ingin didistilasi tidak stabil
atau dapat terdekomposisi sebelum atau mendekati titik didihnya, atau campuran yang
memiliki titik didih di atas 150 °C. Metode distilasi ini tidak dapat digunakan pada
pelarut dengan titik didih yang rendah jika kondensornya menggunakan air dingin,
karena komponen yang menguap tidak dapat dikondensasi oleh air. Pompa vakum atau
aspirator digunakan dalam sistem distilasi ini untuk menurunkan tekanan.

PRAKTIKUM X
COMPUTER SIMULATION TO PREDICT QUALITY CHANGES
IN PACKAGED FOOD DURING STORAGE

A. INTRODUCTION
Processed foods inside a packaging will experience a quality degradation during
storage such as the changes of colour to browning in dried cabbages, the changes of
flavour in potato chips, the changes of texture due to water vapour adsorption in dried
products, and the deterioration of food nutrients due to oxidation. Factors influencing the
quality changes come from the storage environmental conditions covering the temperature,
the relative humidity, the existence of oxygen and water vapour, the light intensity, and the
solubility of metal ions. The type, thickness, and surface area of the packaging material,
and the initial moisture content of food also play important roles in the food quality
changes.
The changes in the stored foods may be explained by the kinetics of reaction
theory. By arranging certain mathematical equations, a product expiration date can be
determined. This means a critical quality parameter of the food product has been
deteriorated and reached the acceptance threshold of consumers. Simultaneously, its
quality level has also decreased to the value printed on the packaging label claimed by the
producers. The expiration date is important to warn the consumers whether they should
purchase and eat the sold products. On the other hand, it also protects the producers
against the risk of quality deterioration beyond the expiration date.
The time from the foods are readily produced by the industries to the expiration
date is called the shelf life. Half time means the time when the foods have reached 50% of
their shelf life. The conventional method to determine the shelf life of a food product is by
storing the product in a room temperature until it has been rejected by a taste panel.
However, this method will take a long time especially for products such as dried milk, and
canned food that are capable to maintain good quality in months.
A recent method to evaluate the shelf life is by applying a computer simulation.
The threshold value used for the product is an essential quality parameter that is critical to
the consumers. The simulation is developed by arranging a number of mathematical
equations representing the influence factors in a real case.
The following is an example from the phenomen of the ascorbic acid (vitamine C)
degradation in the breakfast cereals (Purwadaria and Heldman, 1980). The rate of the
ascorbic degradation has been analyzed to be the first order, expressed as
dC
= − kC (1)
dt
where :
C : ascorbic acid concentration, %
t : storage time, day
k : the rate of the degradation, 1/day

Modul TPP 2018[Type text] Page 12


Eventhough, the fluctuating storage temperature may provide a specific influence
that can be calculated by the Arrhenius equation (Heldman and Singh, 1981), it will be
assumed constant at a given centigrade for this case. Thus, eq. (1) can be rewritten as
follows
C = C exp (−k dt) (2)
t + dt t t

The rate of the ascorbic acid degradation, k, is also tempered by the water activity inside
the packaging (aiw). The relationship of k and aiw in a cereal product was obtained
experimentally to be a linear function (Purwadaria and Heldman, 1980).
(3)
k = 0.0107 + 0.0765 a iw

The water activity, aiw, is calculated from the BET equation (Brunauer, Emmett and Teller,
1938)
a iw 1 (c −1) a iw
= + (4)
M (1 − a iw ) w m c w mc

where :
M : equilibrium moisture content of food (dry basis), g H2O/100 g solid
wm : monomolecular moisture content
c : energy constant

The transmission of water vapour from the atmosphere into the packaging through
the film will increase the rate of ascorbic acid degradation, k. The amount of water vapour
permeating through the film packaging is asumed to be fully adsorbed by the food product,
and is expressed mathematically as follows:

KA
dM = p dt (a 0w − a iw )
XWs (5)

where :
dM : additional moisture content of food, g H2O/100 g solid
g H O . mm
K : permeability coefficient of packaging film, 2 2
m . mmHg . hour
A : film surface area, m2
x : film thickness, mm
Ws : weight of food product, g
p : absolute vapour pressure, mm Hg
a0w : water activity of outside air

Knowing all the previous mentioned equations, a computer flow chart can be developed
at a constant temperature and relative humidity as illustrated in Fig. 1 (Purwadaria,
1977).

B. OBJECTIVES
The objectives of this lab practices are to assess the factors contributing to the
quality deterioration of packed food during storage, to observe the behaviour of ascorbic

acid degradation and the water vapour mass transmission into packaging, and to apply
the computer simulation in predicting the shelf life of the food product.

PRAKTIKUM X
DETERMINATION OF FOOD DRYING RATE

A. INTRODUCTION
Drying has been known for a long time as one of the preservation method for food
and agricultural products. Drying, in general is the removal of part of the product water
content by heat at a temperature lower than the boiling point. However, at present, the
drying techniques may use high temperature at short time (HTST), or ultra temperature
in seconds. The principal of drying is the removal of water content until it limits the
existence of free moisture content. The limitation of free moisture content will develop
constraints to the growth of microorganisms and the enzyme activities inside the
products.
The drying mechanism will be influenced by the product properties, the behaviour
of the contact between heated air and the product surface, and the characteristics of heat
and mass transfer from outside into the product and vice versa. In drying, it is essential
to consider the drying capability, capacity, temperature, air humidity and time required
to dehydrate the product from its initial to final moisture content.
The rate of drying, in the beginning, will depend on the rate of heat and mass
transfer from the product surface to the surrounding air. When the product reaches the
critical moisture content where the free moisture content has been removed, then the
rate of drying will be determined by the rate of water movement from the inside to the
product surface, and the distant it has to go through.
The characteristics of drying curve is commonly used as the basics to describe the
mechanism of heat and mass transfer during the drying process and to compare the
product properties in selecting the drying method. The characteristics of the drying
curve is obtained by plotting the drying rate versus the dry basis moisture content as
illustrated in Fig 4.1. The air properties can be observed from a psychrometric chart.

PRAKTIKUM XII
DETERMINATION OF FOOD THERMAL PROPERTIES
DURING FREEZING

A. INTRODUCTION

Freezing is one of the food preservation methods by lowering its temperature under
its freezing point. By freezing a part of food water content, the activity of enzymes and
micro-organisms can be slowered or stopped to maintain the food quality. The quality of
frozen food is regarded as close to the fresh food eventhough it is incomparable to the
refrigerated food.
The frozen food requires a frozen storage. In general, food is frozen under the
temperature of -20oC and stored at a temperature between -18oC to 20oC. If the storage
temperature fluctuates and reaches over than -15oC, the quality can be deteriorated. And if
the fluctuating temperature occurs more than 24 hours, all frozen foods have to be
removed, cooked, and consumed. The frozen food can be maintained for a long time, such
as one year, provided the storage temperature remains stable at -18oC or lower.
The rate of freezing determines the freezing time, and influences the product
structure. The slow freezing process will destroy the food product by creating large ice
crystals that rupture the cell walls. The damage will only be detected after thawing. The
rupture of the cell walls will cause the outflow of cell plasm containing the food nutrients,
and the deformation of the food texture. This can be avoided when the freezing process is
done rapidly creating fine ice crystals inside and among the cells.
The freezing rate is influenced by various factors such as the medium temperature,
the size and geometry of product, and the product thermal properties: heat capacity (cp),
density () and thermal conductivity (k). Freezing will change the composition of water
and ice inside the product, and in turn, change also its thermal properties.
To determine the freezing rate and the temperature distribution inside the food
product, it is important to understand the changes of the product thermal properties.
Comini et al. (1974) described the changes linearly as illustrated in Fig 6.1., while
Tarnawski (1976) established mathematical functions non-linearly (Fig 6.2).

(Heldman and Gorby, 1974).

Heldman and Gorby (1974) developed a computer model to predict the changes based on
the water fraction remained unfrozen inside the food product (Fig 6.3). The equations
used by Heldman and Gorby (1974) are as follows.

where:
EMI: effective mass of ice
 : density of product, kg/m3
I : density of ice, kg/m3
W: density of water, kg/m3
S : density of solid, kg/m3

The density of solid is previously determined by inserting the initial product density,
and initial water content into eq. (4) where EMI is zero prior to freezing.

To predict the thermal conductivity (k) the following equations are used
(Kopelman, 1966).

k : thermal conductivity of product, W/m K
Kc : thermal conductivity of continuous phase, W/m K
Modul TPP 2018[Type text] Page 28
Kd : thermal conductivity of discontinuous phase, W/m K

The calculation is done in two steps. Firstly, the water-ice system where water is
considered as a continuous phase, and ice is a discontinuous phase. Secondly, the
water-ice and solid system where water-ice is considered as a continuous phase, and
solid is a discontinuous phase. Hsieh et al. (1977) predicted the thermal properties of
various horticultural products as described in Fig 6.4 - 6.6.

PRAKTIKUM XIII
QUALITY EVALUATION IN FOODS CANNING

A. INTRODUCTION
Canning is one of the food preservation methods by applying heat to the canned
products. In the canning process, food is classified into two groups, one is the acid
food with a pH less than 4.5, for example, the fruit products, and the other is the non-
acid foods with a pH higher than 4.5 like meat and fish.
The acid food is generally pasteurized, a heating process at 90-100oC to kill
and inactivate a certain type of microorganism. Some horticultural products with a
pH higher than 4.5 could be treated by adding an acid solution with a low pH to meet
the requirement of pasteurization process.
However, it is necessary to store the canned food and investigate it condition
after canning process, to make sure that the thermal process was right and the food
can be stored for relatively long period.

B. OBJECTIVES
The objectives of this exercise is to evaluate the quality of canned pineapple
and compare it with the commercial product.
