This paper presents a browning model based on Maillard reaction kinetics that integrates into comprehensive CFD baking models, predicting melanoidin concentration and food browning during baking. Initial validation uses data from established studies on the Maillard reaction and melanoidin formation in simplified model systems (sugar–amino acid mixtures heated under controlled conditions). Further experimental validation involves baking muffins in a domestic oven, comparing observed surface browning and melanoidin absorption with the model’s simulated browning index and melanoidins over time. A method for calculating the browning index from experiments and CFD simulations is presented. Validation shows differences in melanoidin concentration and browning index between measurements and simulations below 8% and 7%, respectively, across all baking times. This research provides insight into the mechanisms of browning reactions in baked goods, enabling the integration of Maillard reaction kinetics into CFD models. These findings offer practical tools for predicting browning, allowing the food industry to optimise baking processes, improve product consistency, and enhance safety and quality.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":359,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Food Engineering","volume":"407 ","pages":"Article 112826"},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145248000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The fouling phenomenon during beer clarification is a complex process influenced by multiple organic foulants, yet the underlying mechanisms, particularly the interactions between membrane-foulant and coexisting foulant components, remain poorly understood. In this work, fouling mechanisms were investigated based on the fractional components in beer using polyethersulfone (PES) hollow fiber microfiltration membranes, with fouling behavior analyzed through the Hermia model. The results indicated that membrane-foulant interactions are relatively weak, and the adsorption of components onto the membrane surface plays a negligible role in fouling. However, under dynamic filtration conditions, fouling severity was significantly enhanced. For single components, yeast cells predominantly accumulated at the membrane surface, forming a distinct cake layer. In contrast, smaller molecular-sized components (proteins, polysaccharides, and tannins) primarily penetrated the membrane's internal pore channels, leading to pore blocking. Furthermore, the polysaccharides and tannins are easier to form aggregates with other components in the mixture, and the addition of casein further enhanced aggregate formation. These aggregates exhibited a greater impact on fouling mechanisms compared to single components, with the fouling behavior of simulated mixtures transitioning to intermediate blocking models. Importantly, these observations are consistent with results from actual beer fermentation, suggesting that membrane fouling occurs through a combination of pore blocking and cake layer formation mechanisms.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":359,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Food Engineering","volume":"406 ","pages":"Article 112823"},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145217351","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Current detection of WB in poultry processing plants relies on manual palpation and visual inspection, which is labor-intensive and subjective. Surface profilometry or three-dimensional (3D) vision techniques that measure surface topography of objects offer a potentially useful method for WB assessment and grading, since WB alters the shape of chicken breasts. This study presents a proof-of-concept evaluation of an innovative, custom-designed 3D laser profiling system prototype for online, real-time detection of broiler breast fillets with WB through 3D reconstruction and machine learning. The system employed a line laser to scan samples at a rate of 120 frames per second (fps), and with a dedicated calibrated algorithm pipeline, could reconstruct the shape of samples at a rate of approximately 107 fps. Compared to a red line laser (λ = 660 nm), a blue line laser (λ = 450 nm) yielded better 3D reconstruction, with the z-axis (depth/height) reconstruction error of 0.29, 0.73, and 2.56 mm at the conveyor speed of 5, 10, and 15 cm/s, respectively; higher conveyor speeds resulted in reduced point cloud density and elevated image noise. A set of 310 chicken breast fillets, manually graded by trained personnel for WB conditions, was scanned under the illumination of a blue line laser at the three conveyor speeds for WB assessment. Classification models were built using two approaches, i.e., support vector machine (SVM) trained with the hand-crafted features from the two-dimensional (2D) projection of reconstructed shape, and deep learning through an end-to-end PointNet++ trained with the 3D points.
