What is UHT or UHT Processed?
UHT stands for Ultra Heat Treatment. UHT is a process where any liquid is heated to approx. 145 degrees C and held there for at least 2 seconds.
UHT product, after heat treatment, is then sent to a sterile tank to give a buffer before the filling process is done. In a sterile atmosphere, the filling is done. The UHT packing machine flushes the item to be filled with Nitrogen and keeps the area within the filling heads flooded with Nitrogen to eliminate any air contamination. (Air is what is required for bacteria, moulds, etc. to grow.)
The shelf life of a UHT product can be up to 1 year at ambient temperatures.
The UHT processing line (which encompasses the heat treatment to the high temp. and also a holding section) is the first part of the equipment required for UHT processing. The UHT plants are generally tube in tube, or direct steam injection and all the systems have a simple holding section that is matched to the specific product being held and required holding times.
The advantages of this process are that it allows products that were formerly considered to be perishable to have a shelf life anywhere from 6 - 24 months without refrigeration, depending on the exact product. The nitrogen flushed packaging also ensures a contamination free product with almost no loss of taste, quality or nutritional value.
