ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a system for pasteurization thermal treatment of foodstuffs, particularly leaf products, comprised of means for loading the product to be subjected to treatment and means for discharging the treated product. The system is comprised of a first treatment section in which the product to be subjected to treatment is conveyed by the loading means and wherein the first treatment section heats the product by a treatment fluid, so as to reduce starting concentration of thermo sensitive bacterial flora present in the same. A second treatment section is provided in cascade with the first treatment section. The second treatment section cools the product by the treatment fluid, so as to stop growing of residual bacterial flora present.
