      • Pectolytic enzymes, including pectinase, break down pectin, reducing juice viscosity and improving clarity.

    Homogenization

    • Ensures uniform mixing of fruit pulp and juice, preventing separation and improving product consistency:
      • High pressure (120-150 atm) forces the product through a small gap (0.1 mm), resulting in particle sizes ranging from 167 to 560 µm.

    Oxygen Elimination

    • Crucial in juice processing to prevent:
      • Discoloration: Oxygen interaction with enzymes causes browning and affects juice appearance.
      • Vitamin C loss: Oxidation degrades vitamin C, reducing the juice's nutritional value.

    Pasteurization

    • Eliminates harmful microorganisms and extends the shelf life of juice:
      • pH: Maintaining a maximum pH below 4.5 before pasteurization is crucial.
      • Methods: Batch or continuous pasteurization.
      • Equipment: Plate heat exchangers and tubular heat exchangers are commonly used.

    Quality Loss in Juice

    • Can stem from:
      • Nutrition loss: Degradation of vitamins and other nutrients over time.
      • Sensorial loss: Changes in flavor, aroma, and color due to oxidation or microbial activity.
