Food Ultrasound Market

Food Ultrasound Market Size, Growth, Forecast (2023-2028)

The Global Food Ultrasound Market size was US$ 134.6 Million in 2022 and is anticipated to succeed in the valuation of US$ 165 Million in 2028 and is predicted to register a CAGR of 7.5% during 2023-2028.

Food Ultrasound Market Scenario:

Food Ultrasound Market Industry mainly uses ultrasound to inspect objects and materials. Today, these approaches are used primarily in the food industry for food modification and analysis. Low-intensity ultrasound provides information on physicochemical properties such as composition, structure, physical condition, and flow rate. Ultrasound with high intensity pulses is used to change the physical or chemical properties of food. High-density ultrasound can be used to generate emulsions, destroy cells, accelerate chemical reactions, block enzymes, soften meat, modify processes and crystallize. In the food sector, ultrasound is used for a variety of functions such as freezing, harvesting, drying, handling, bleaching and sterilization. The use of ultrasonic radiation in connection with bactericidal substances helps reduce the number of bacteria in food. Ultrasound minimizes processing costs and ensures that the food is pure.

Food ultrasound Market Trend shows that is has become the most important aspect of the food and beverage industry due to growing concerns about waste and long turnaround times. Food ultrasound technology helps solve both of these problems while making the process more energy efficient. Freezing, extraction, crystallization, degassing, bleaching, drying and filtering are just a few of the applications in the food industry. In the processing area, it can be used for food processing, storage and extraction. It can also be used to repair wastewater from the food and beverage industry. As a result of these factors, food ultrasound technology is expected to gain popularity.
