چکیده

This study explores the applications of airborne ultrasonic technology in the food industry, highlighting its advantages in non-contact processing, quality control, and safety enhancement. It aims to assess the effectiveness of ultrasonic methods in improving food preservation, reducing microbial contamination, and enhancing sensory attributes without compromising nutritional value. The study also reviews emerging applications, potential industrial benefits, and limitations of the technology to provide insights into its feasibility for large-scale implementation . Research Methods: This study utilizes a combination of literature review, experimental analysis, and case studies to evaluate the effectiveness of airborne ultrasonic technology. Data were collected from previous studies, industry reports, and laboratory experiments to measure its impact on microbial reduction, texture improvement, and shelf-life extension. Comparative analysis was conducted between ultrasonic-treated and conventionally processed food products. Key performance indicators included energy efficiency, processing time, and impact on food quality. Industry feedback was also gathered to assess practical challenges in adoption. Findings: The study found that airborne ultrasonic technology enhances food safety, extends shelf life, and improves textural properties while maintaining nutritional value. It reduces microbial contamination without requiring chemical preservatives. However, challenges include scalability, high initial investment, and the need for standardization to ensure consistent results across different food processing applications. Conclusion: Airborne ultrasonic technology presents significant potential for food processing, offering a non-invasive and efficient method for quality improvement and preservation. While promising, widespread adoption requires overcoming cost and scalability challenges. Future research should focus on optimizing parameters, enhancing energy efficiency, and developing industry-wide standards for consistent application.
