reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA131421 | Open PDF

Abstract:

The Aladdin rethermalization system was evaluated by the Food Engineering Laboratory FEL US Army NLABS to determine its operating characteristics under standardized laboratory conditions. Results show that many food items rethermalize well in this system. Problems were encountered in maintaining products at optimum chilled temperatures prior to rethermalization.
