In the recent past, ohmic heating has been used as a method to
deliver potentially higher quality products in aseptic processing. It
can be used to generate heat uniformly throughout food matrices
by controlling the electrical conductivities of food components. Due
to its promising advantages, ohmic heating has been expanding to
other applications of such as thawing, blanching, extraction and
drying. However, to reach its ultimate benefits for new and higher
quality products, further insightful research in other applications is
warranted.
