  • Patent number: 12161141
    Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed relating to food processing and preparation in commercial kitchens. The inventive extreme vacuum cooling (EVC) technology and apparatus for food rapid cooling and food flavor infusion can work in ultra low pressure conditions with adaptive chamber pressure control to avoid liquid splash inside the food chamber. The disclosed EVC cooling and food flavor infusion apparatus has a one-unit design for handing small payloads, and a dual-module design to handle larger payloads. It can accelerate the food marinating and brining process with substantial time savings. Using the EVC apparatus, large amounts of meats, vegetables, and fruits can be prepared with various flavor infusion recipes. Plant-forward and high-volume food service kitchens can become more time and energy efficient, less labor intensive, and higher throughput food preparation operations.

  • Patent number: 12053006
    Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed relating to food preparation in commercial kitchens and food processing plants. The disclosed extreme vacuum cooling (EVC) technology and apparatus can work in ultra low pressure conditions with adaptive pressure control to avoid potential liquid splash inside the vacuum chamber caused by un-controlled low pressure conditions. Clean air is added into the vacuum chamber to allow the chamber pressure to track a setpoint trajectory that may have ramp up periods in order to avoid liquid splash events. The apparatus enables the user to cool various kinds of foods quickly, save energy, and meet food safety regulations.

  • Publication number: 20240188600
    Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed relating to controlled environment agriculture (CEA), food processing facilities, and commercial kitchens. The inventive smart and scalable extreme vacuum cooling (EVC) equipment is based on a scalable and modular design that allows one or multiple food chamber modules to connect to one utility module so that all food chambers can share the available vacuum cooling capacity dynamically. A scalable EVC system can be built, shipped and assembled with as few as one food chamber module and one utility module to a number of food chamber modules and a utility module. The food chambers are designed with different sizes in dimension and power requirements but with the same interface to the utility module. In this way, multiple food chamber modules can operate for food rapid cooling and flavor infusion supported by only one utility module. In a CEA farm, leafy greens are harvested daily and need to be chilled rapidly to comply with USDA food safety standards.

  • Patent number: 11769385
    Abstract: A system and computer software mechanism is disclosed that can automatically detect smoking conditions for industrial flares. In an online mode, the software mechanism can analyze live video images to identify smoking conditions and generate a “Smoke Level” value to represent the seriousness of the smoking events. In an off-line mode, the software mechanism can load saved video files and analyze video images to identify smoking conditions and generate a “Smoke Level” value to represent the seriousness of the smoking events. In the online mode, the Smoke Level data can be sent to the plant distributed control system (DCS) or other control devices so alarms can be generated and automatic or manual control actions can be taken quickly to stop the flare from smoking. In both online and off-line modes, Smoke Level data can also be saved in historical files for reporting and smoke event tracking purposes.
