Abstract

Sugar beet is one of the primary raw materials for sugar production in China, yet traditional sugar beet extraction methods rely on hot water extraction.This method is plagued by issues such as long extraction times, high energy consumption, low extraction rates, and poor sugar product quality, which do not align with the principles of green and sustainable development.Pulsed electric field (PEF) assisted extraction technology is recognized as a reliable strategy of extraction, characterized by instantaneous high field strength, high frequency with non-thermal effects, and superior efficiency.There have been numerous studies utilizing PEF in sugar beet processing.Therefore, this manuscript provides an overview of domestic and international applications of PEF pretreatment for sugar beet extraction.Furthermore, this study elucidates the mechanism of its assisted extraction, identifies key factors influencing extraction rates, and prospects the application of PEF extraction, aiming to provide theoretical guidance for the practical production of sugar from sugar beet.
