Modeling, monitoring and control strategies for high temperature short time pasteurization systems — 1. Empirical model development

Abstract Dynamic models of high temperature short time (HTST) pasteurization systems can be developed by using empirical model development paradigms such as transfer functions and times series models. Properly designed experiments that excite all output variables provide good data that enable the development of accurate dynamic models. These models are used in feedback control and statistical process monitoring system design. The methodology for time series model development for HTST pasteurization processes is illustrated by using data collected from a pilot scale HTST pasteurization system.
