With traditional defrosting methods high drip losses may result from lengthy defrosting times, causing changes in the product texture and leading to a significant economic loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>On the contrary, the process speed and uniformity of the <strong>RF defrosting<\/strong> method introduce a number of benefits, including also the <strong>minimisation of the drip losses<\/strong>,&nbsp; thus helping to increase the yield and preserve at best the product quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>We have developed a simple tool to <strong>estimate the payback of the investment<\/strong> in a
