PART–I

Answer any three questions. :
All questions carry equal marks. :
1. Discuss the different types of freezers available for freezing of food. What type of freezer is suitable for production of Individually Quick Frozen food ? Why glazing is necessary before storage of frozen food ?
2. Discuss the mechanism involved in the inactivation of microorganism by the dense phase carbon dioxide. Discuss a batch dense phase carbon dioxide system for cold pasteurization of food product.
3. Discuss the high pressure processing technology for preservation of food. What are the major advantages of such process ? Compare this process with thermal processing technology.

4. Write short notes on (any three) :
a) Transportation of chilled and frozen food.
b) Pelican system.
c) Liquid nitrogen freezing of food.
d) Cold chain in frozen food distribution.
e) Ultrasound technique in food processing.

5. What do you understand by freezing rate ? How the frozen food quality is affected by freezing rate ? Uncooked meat 5 cm thick is being frozen from both sides by a refrigerant at – 30°C in a plate contact freezer. The meat is initially at its freezing point (– 2°C) but not frozen and has a moisture content of 80%. Determine the time required to freeze the meat.
