Electrifying The Potato: How PEF Technology Is Revolutionizing Processing With Mark de Boevere


Listen Later

What if you could produce a crispier french fry, slash your energy bills, and increase your product yield—all by "drilling" microscopic holes with electricity? Today, host Mike DeLong sits down with Mark de Boevere, the founder of Pulsemaster, to discuss the "disruptive magic" of Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) technology. Based in the heart of the Netherlands' potato country, Marc and his team are transforming the industry from the inside out—literally.


By applying precise electrical pulses to potatoes, PEF technology targets the cell membranes, creating minuscule openings that lead to:

  • 40% less cutting force for smoother surfaces and less breakage.
  • Reduced oil absorption for a healthier, crunchier bite.
  • Shorter blanching and drying times, optimizing the entire production line.


From massive 100-ton-per-hour industrial systems to compact "plug-and-play" pilot units, PEF is no longer a futuristic concept—it's the new global standard for efficient, high-quality potato processing.
