Benefits of technology

This invention relates to improving the production efficiency during mailage fermenting processes through enhanced heat transfer between different parts inside the system's container or chamber. By utilizing this technique, it allows for faster cool down times while reducing energy consumption compared with previous methods like steam explosion techniques. Additionally, there are no harmful substances added into products that were previously produced due to their poor taste profile caused by excessive acidity levels associated with conventional cookers used at temperatures above 50°C. Overall, these technical improvements lead to improved safer and more efficient manufacturing processes.

Problems solved by technology

This patents describes different ways to improve the efficiency and accuracy of chemical processes used in food production. One approach includes controllably excluding oxygen atoms with specific types of bases called flavonoids while maintaining basic properties like sugar content. Another approach focuses on improving thermal activation without damaging sensitive components. Additionally, there are various techniques involving applying electrical fields to control cellular metabolism and promote catastrophe phenomena caused by excessive temperatures.
