Key Specifications

Production Process & Technical Workflow

1. Raw Material Selection

Variety: Roma tomatoes (Brix ≥ 5.0°, pH 4.3–4.9).

Quality Control: Destructive testing for pesticides/heavy metals (EU MRLs compliant).

2. Pre-treatment

Washing: Triple-stage immersion (ozonated water → citric acid bath → RO water rinse).

Blanching: Steam treatment at 95°C for 90 seconds to inactivate enzymes (PPO residual activity < 5%).

Peeling & Coring: Infrared peeling (99% efficiency) + automated optical sorting.

3. Cutting & Drying

Dicing: Uniform 8x8mm cubes (±0.5mm tolerance).

AD Drying:

Stage 1: 70°C for 2hrs (rapid moisture removal).

Stage 2: 60°C for 4hrs (gentle drying to preserve lycopene).

Stage 3: 45°C for 1hr (equilibrium drying to target ≤8% moisture).

Technology: Cross-flow air drying with PID temperature control (±1°C accuracy).

4. Post-Drying Processing

Cooling: Vacuum cooling to 25°C within 15min.

Metal Detection: Ferrous/non-ferrous screening (sensitivity: Fe 1.5mm, SUS 2.0mm).

Color Sorting: AI-powered optical sorter (defect removal rate > 99.5%).

5. Packaging & Storage

Primary Packaging: Nitrogen-flushed triple-layer foil pouches (O₂< 0.5%).

Storage: Temperature-controlled warehouse (15–20°C, RH < 40%).

Quality Assurance Highlights

Nutrient Preservation: Low-temperature drying maximizes retention of vitamin C (≥25mg/100g) and lycopene.

Microbial Safety: 3-log reduction in pathogens via blanching + moisture control (aW < 0.65).

Traceability: Blockchain-based batch tracking from farm to final product.

Applications

Food Industry: Pizza toppings, pasta sauces, instant noodles, bakery fillings.
