An Experimental Study on Thawing of Frozen Fish by the Vacuum System

The maintenance of continuity on food processing has created a need for the rapid reinstatement of many types of frozen fish to an ambient temperature and good condition. A number of thawing methods are in current use have also several disadvantages in thawing time. discoloration mass loss caused by drying, capital and running cost. These damages are, it is claimed, either eliminated or improves by the vacuum system. An experimental study on the thawing for hair tail and Yellow croaker by the vacuum system were carried out. The Yellow croaker thawing time with this vacuum system took out 170 minutes to reach from $-10.3^{\circ}C\;to\;-0.8^{\circ}C$ at 20mmHg abs. and hair tail thawing time 220 minutes to reach from $-12.2^{\circ}C\;to\;0^{\circ}C$ at 20mmHg abs.
