Systems and methods for providing food intervention, pumping up, and tenderization are discussed. While such systems and methods can include any suitable component, in some cases, they include an injectate reservoir, a filter, a first pump configured to force injectate from the injectate reservoir and through the filter, a nozzle configured to inject injectate into a food product without having the nozzle contact the food, and a valve that is configured to selectively open and close to regulate when and how much of the injectate that passes through the filter is forced out of the nozzle. In some cases, the described systems further include a chiller configured to cool injectate in the reservoir, a sensor configured to determine a distance between the nozzle and food item, an actuator configured to move the nozzle, and/or a computer processor that controls an amount of injectate sprayed from the nozzle. Other implementations are described.

An electrode, a preparation method therefor, and uses thereof. Titanium or titanium alloy is used as a base material of the electrode, the outer surface of the base material is coated with a composite material coating, and the composite material coating is prepared by coating a composite material solution and carrying out drying and sintering. The composite material solution is a nanoscale solution formed by dissolving transition metal elements in ethanol. The nanoscale solution is an ethanol solution of the nanoscale transition metal with particles of the transition metal as solutes thereof. The transition metal elements are platinum, iridium, ruthenium, gold, cerium, rhodium, tantalum, manganese, nickel, palladium, yttrium, gadolinium, cobalt, europium, lanthanum, neodymium, zirconium and titanium, and the molar ratio of the transition metal elements platinum, iridium, ruthenium, gold, cerium, rhodium, tantalum, manganese, nickel, palladium, yttrium, gadolinium, cobalt, europium, lanthanum, neodymium, zirconium and titanium in the composite material solution is 5-15:23-34:14-21:1-7:9-17:3-12:15-27: 3-6:2-9:10-23:15-27:2-8:15-30:3-12:4-14:1-10:6-15:20-50.

The invention relates to a method and apparatus of tempering an organic product in an enclosed structure using a liquid maintained at a predefined temperature. The method includes, introducing the organic product through at least one access means of the enclosed structure into the liquid, circulating the liquid from the enclosed structure through a heating unit and back into the enclosed structure to increase a temperature of the liquid up to a predefined temperature, and supplying a gaseous substance into the enclosed structure for a predefined time period based on a temperature of the liquid in the enclosed structure. The organic product is removed through the access means of the enclosed structure when a core temperature of the organic product reaches the predefined temperature.
