Elea’s MD Stefan Toepfl was keynote speaker at Eurodrying 2025

🎤 His keynote – "Pulsed Electric Field Impact on Product Quality During Convective and Freeze Drying" – explored how PEF technology can supercharge drying processes across the board.

Prof. Dr Stefan Töpfl, Managing Director of Elea, took the stage as keynote speaker at the EURODRYING2025 - 9th European Conference on Drying Technology, held at Wageningen University in The Netherlands from 6–9 July.

🎤 His keynote – "Pulsed Electric Field Impact on Product Quality During Convective and Freeze Drying" – explored how PEF technology can supercharge drying processes across the board.

From convective to microwave-vacuum to freeze-drying, Prof. Töpfl showcased real product samples, demonstrating the clear advantages in terms of texture, structure, and appearance with pulsed electric field.

The session led to engaging discussions on how PEF can help optimise product quality, increase drying speed, and reduce energy consumption – offering real potential for more sustainable and efficient drying processes.
