Abstract

This study was conducted to analyzethe temperature distribution for the prediction of thermal process behavior of capillary tube sterilizer with different inlet flowrates of sugarcane juice. Fruits juice and beverages are mostly use thermal treatment process to preserved it. As of now being the most conventional thermal process are very high in cost. Capillary tube with small diameter,2.8 mm was found that it can be applied as the thermal treatment sterilization process for the fruit juices. The temperature use for this thermal treatment was 98 - 100 °C. The temperature increase during heating process is very fast within 1.2 minutes for sugarcane juice to reached the temperature at 80 - 83° C immediately after thermal process. This thermal treatment introduced to short heating sterilization process and it can be use high flowrate during treatment' On the other hand' the effect of the sterilization process by using capillary tube on the overall color changes, AE* after treatment process at storage 4 °C was maintain and no significant changes within 15 days of storage as compared to storage at 25 °C The treated sugarcane juice that stored at 25 °C were stable during storage than the untreated sugarcane juice that stored in 25 °C. Among the developing innovations, thermal treatment by suing capillary tube has appeared incredible potential for the persistent sterilization of fruit juices advertising fast heating process, lower surface temperatures and practicable improved impacts. The result of this study appears that sterilization using capillary tube of sugarcane juice could be a technology that can ensure to improve the quality of the fruit juices.
