METHOD FOR STERILISING PEACH COMPOTE (WITHOUT KERNELS) Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC A23L1/212 A23L3/00 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: fruits are poured with 80°C hot water for 2-3 min with subsequent water replacement with 95-97°C syrup. The jars filled with compote are sealed, put into the carrier ensuring mechanical air-tightness of the jars, heated by way of sequential staged showering with 80°C water during 6 minutes and with 100°C water during 20 minutes. The jars are cooled by way of spaying with 80°C water during 6 minutes, with 60°C water during 6 minutes and with 40°C water during 6 minutes; during the whole heat treatment process the jars are turned upside down with a frequency equal to 0.166 s^-1.

EFFECT: invention ensures the process duration reduction, reduction of boiled fruits quantity, reduction of the residual air quantity in the jar before sealing, preservation of natural components of the raw material, prevention of thermal breakage of the containers, enhancement of nutritive value of the product, the heat-exchange process intensification, thermal energy and water saving, prime cost reduction and the ready product competitiveness increase.
