History
The thermal effects of
electricity within a
conductor was first
elucidated by James
Prescott Joule in 1841.

Early applications
Early 20th Century: Ohmic Heating was first used to
pasteurize milk
1920s: Electro-Pure was introduced
1930s: Electric-pasteurization was utilized in 6 states in the
USA
1950s: Decline of electric-pasteurization
1980s: APV Baker Ltd. patents Ohmic Heating from the
Electricity Research and Development Centre in the UK

Process Innovation
Continued research and development may lead to innovative
applications and new processes that benefit from ohmic heating.
Integration with Renewable Energy
This combination can contribute to a greener and more efficient
heating process.
Customization and Control
This could include intelligent monitoring, feedback control
mechanisms, and the ability to adjust heating profiles for specific
applications.
Limitations of
Ohmic Heating
Electrode Fouling
This fouling can reduce the efficiency of the process and require
periodic maintenance or cleaning.
Material Compatibility
This limits its use to specific applications and restricts its potential in
certain industries.
Electrical Safety
Adequate safety measures and protocols must be in place to ensure
the protection of operators and the surrounding environment.
Energy Consumption
Efforts to optimize energy consumption and improve overall
efficiency are necessary to address this limitation.
