Bedford, MA - Diversified Technologies, Inc., a developer and manufacturer of high voltage, high power equipment received the 2007 Institute of Food Technologists Industrial Achievement Award for bringing pulsed electric field (PEF) treated juice to the marketplace. PEF technology applies very short pulses of high-voltage electricity to liquid foods to kill pathogens. Unlike heat processing, PEF does not alter the flavor of juices.
Diversified Technologies, Inc. received the award along with Genesis Juice Corp. of Eugene, Oregon who was the first company in the USA to introduce PEF-treated juices which are made safe and kept fresh with PEF. This award is presented by the Institute to companies or organizations for outstanding developments which represent a significant advance in the application of food science and technology to food production.
Diversified Technologies worked with Ohio State University researchers to build the world's first commercial-scale PEF system. For decades, the PEF solution was not practical because there was no way to generate reliable pulses, cost-effective pulses with sufficient peak power (typically 40 MW).
