As one of the most advanced thermal processing technologies in the world,high voltage pulsed electric field( HPEF) technology not only has better effect of sterilization and of blunting enzymes,low energy consumption, but also has good preservation effect for keeping the original sensory and nutritional elements of the raw materials. HPEF shows significant advantages compared to other processing technologies. The application of HPEF technology in liquid food,especially in fruit and vegetable juice industries,has made some progress recently. The mechanisms of HPEF technology,factors influencing its effects during processing and storage of fruit and vegetable juice as well as its possible application have been introduced. Its advanced application in fruit and vegetable juice industries is also prospected.
