An apparatus and method for microwave vacuum-drying of organic materials, such as food products. The apparatus has a microwave vacuum chamber 20, a loading module 36 to load containers 38 of the organic material into the vacuum chamber, a rotatable cylindrical cage 64 in the vacuum chamber for rotating the containers, a piston 114 for moving the rotating containers through the vacuum chamber, and means for unloading the containers of dehydrated material from the vacuum chamber. The apparatus may include an equilibration chamber 150 for cooling the dehydrated material under reduced pressure, and a transfer module 42 to transfer the containers from the vacuum chamber to the equilibration chamber. The apparatus has a microwave transparent window 54 for transmission of radiation into the vacuum chamber, and a gas jet 58, 60, 62 for blowing a stream of gas, such as air or nitrogen, into the vacuum chamber adjacent to the window.

A method of treating a meat-substance containing a bone structure. The bone marrow is coagulated with microwaves generated by a solid-state RF energy source. The microwave heating may be carried out prior to a heat treatment of the meat-substance and/or may be carried out after slaughtering and before the fresh slaughtered meat-substance is frozen.
