SureBeam Middle East

Irradiated foods are foods that are sterilized using Electron Beam, x-ray or radioactive materials that kill BACTERIA About SureBeam Middle East Co. The SureBeam Food and Medical products sterilization facility is a dual Electron Beam Accelerator. The accelerator Energy is too low to induce radioactivity in any material, including food. In the E-Be... am Mode, electrons are accelerated to near the speed of light using microwaves, into the product breaking the DNA chain of pathogens in the product. Products receive radiant energy from both the upper and lower accelerators so that product flipping is not required and processing can be accomplished in seconds. In the X-Ray mode, electrons are accelerated to near the speed of light using microwaves into a dense metals which emits x-Rays that pass through the product breaking the DNA chain of pathogens in the product. The product will pass in front of the beam and then be rotated 1800 to make a pass on its side. X-Ray is primary used with bulky, non uniform, high density products. In the E-Beam system, utilizes a dual conveyance system to move the product in and out of the process chamber. All LINACS and controls are controlled with Allen Bradley Programmable Logic Control (PLC) software. The software along with automatic control system enables the electronic pasteurization process to be virtually automated and very tightly controlled with few staffing requirements. SureBeam Middle East facility is first of its kind and the state-of-the-art facility unavailable in the Middle East, and now is in fully commercial operation and is one of the most promising food safety technologies of the 21st centuryfood irradiation with electron beam technology. The Irradiation Technology has an important role to play in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, in the production of safe, higher quality foods, and a more plentiful food supply by extension of shelf life and controlling pests and pathogens in food. Other processes such as chemicals and heat treatments can kill insects, moulds and ...Read More
