Compressed air is a very important tool for food processing and packaging. Food production includes processes like canning, freezing, and dehydration. In this industry – compressed air is used for blow-off applications, cleaning, sorting, cutting, shaping, and conveying food products. It is also used to help form, fill, and seal cartons. The air must be free of contaminants before contact or non-contact with food products. It is the manufacturer’s responsibility to know the composition of the air used to avoid product contamination. The air quality is the measure of these contaminants in the pressurised air. If a component of the air has a harmful effect or makes the condition of the product worse – it is considered a compressed air contaminant. The sources of contaminants in compressed air food processing environments could be physical, chemical, or biological hazards. They include particles, micro-organisms, water, and oil.
Each food processing plant has unique requirements. The goals are to guarantee compliance with standards, levels of food safety, and quality set forth by regulatory entities. This is critical since food products are ingested by humans and animals.
