Abstract :
[en] Meat and fish are mainly processed in Benin by grilling, smoking and smoking-drying. Recent studies revealed that traditional equipments led to high contamination of end-products by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). This study aimed to assess the performances of new equipments and reduce the level of PAHs in end-products. Thirty-six controlled production trials were performed using three improved and new equipments in combination with charcoal and wood as fuel. The temperature at the core of grilled pork (77.5 ± 3.8 °C) and smoked fish (76.4 ± 2.8 °C) showed the highest thermal efficiency of QUALISANI equipment (FAQ) used with charcoal compared to other combinations fuel-equipment. The benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) (0.2 ± 0.1–1.9 ± 2.1 µg/Kg) and sum of PAH4 (2.4 ± 0.2 µg/Kg) in grilled pork obtained with FAQ-charcoal used with or without filter were the lowest levels of PAHs in compliance with Beninese and European standards. Smoked and smoked-dried fishes obtained from FAQ-charcoal with or without filter, FAQ-wood-filter, and the modified barrel kiln (FBM) used with charcoal-filter had ranges of BaP (0.1–0.2 µg/Kg) and PAH4 (0.4–2.9 µg/Kg) significantly lower than the maximal limited values of 2 µg/Kg (BaP) and 12 µg/Kg (PAH4) admitted by European Commission.
