REFERENCES 25 INTRODUCTION HACCP is an abridgment of the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point system, which is tantamount to food safety management Essentially, it is “a system which identifies, evaluates and controls hazards which are significant for food safety’’ It is a system that gives confidence that food safety is being controlled effectually The hazards that need to be analyzed and controlled are biological, chemical, and physical hazards from raw material production, procurement, and handling, to manufacturing, distribution, and consumption of the finished product or anything that could go wrong regarding product safety and implements controls subsequently to ensure that the product will not cause harm to the consumer OPRP as a control measure identified by the hazard analysis as necessary to control the likelihood of introducing food safety hazards and contamination or increase of food safety hazards in the product or the processing environment OPRP is definite action relating to the process, although not being critical for food safety, but they are essential in reducing the probability of specific hazards occurring Turning green tea leaves into instant green tea powder is a complicated process that included many stages of preparing as well as processing To achieve good products quality and food safety and hygiene Mainly hazards biological from E Coli bacteria, Salmonella, Coliform, etc and other physical hazards, chemistry, allergies need to be minimized to the maximum Research plans for the Hazard Analysis, Critical Control Point (HACCP), and OPRP systems for pre-processing and processing at instant green tea powder factories need to be discussed, researched, implemented, and focused, followed clearly to minimize the unfortunate threat to products quality HACCP TEAM No Name Position Responsibility Hanna Plant Manager HACCP team leader Helen QA Manager Committee Jena Production Manager Committee Kitten QC Manager Committee Mia

The storage condition: cool, dry place and avoid physical damage PLANT LAYOUT To avoid cross-contamination in food manufacture, the factory must be designed and organized in accordance with HACCP and must adhere to the one-way rule from input materials to final products As a result, the factory is divided each level of cleanliness into production and non-production areas I Production area Reception raw material (incoming materials and raw materials store): Raw products are in the proper conditions (avoid places with high temperature or humidity) and method so as to maintain quality and reduce loss of the material during storage + Incoming raw materials where the company imports raw materials including tea leaves, water, paper box, and aluminum foil sachet from distributors + Raw material storage room is used for storing, checking and classification the quality of raw materials, as well as preliminary processing before materials, go into processing Processing area The processing area plays an important role in the company in which raw materials (tea leaves) are directly variable into the final product (instant tea powder) Therefore, the area must be of high quality in order to obtain safe and high-quality products according to GMP and HACCP standards Packaging area Applying proper packaging methods and ensuring hygienic conditions will reduce the risk of contamination with hazards in the packaging process to a minimum After packaging, the products are checked once again to ensure there is no mistake on the outlook and no metal contamination in each product Packaging warehouse Packaging warehouse is used to store packing materials to avoid cross-contamination and to expand space for the packaging process Finished products warehouse Finished product warehouse is where the products are stored as well as get ready for export II Non-production area Lab It is used for microbiological testing in tea powder and other related matters, followed by the administration Freezing system This system helps to control and maintain the ideal temperature for freezing steps Water treatment system The purpose of a water treatment facility is to make water potable and palatable while also ensuring that there is a sufficient supply of water for the company's water needs Raw water is pumped, or flows, to a treatment facility Once there, the water is pretreated to remove debris such as leaves and silt Then, a sequence of treatment processes - including filtration and disinfection with chemicals or physical processes - eliminates disease-causing microorganisms Clean in Place system In food processing, insufficient cleaning can result in reduced efficiency, contamination in final product, and energy losses To optimize widely implemented clean-in-place (CIP) systems, it is critical to understand the influence of the interactions between surfaces, fouling, and chemical agents on the efficiency of the cleaning process (AvilaSierra, Zhang, & Fryer, 2019) This system helps to clean the interior surfaces of pipes, vessels, types of equipment, filters without major disassembly Waste storage Proper waste management is important to protect human health and the environment, so this area should be located in the farthest location to ensure hygiene and easily treat the waste when it goes out of the environment Employee canteen and relaxing area, packing area for employee's welfare and visitor parking area for the welcome PROCESS STEP DESCRIPTION # Processing steps/ Incoming Process step description materials Paper box Paper boxes are transported to food factory by trucks receiving After harvesting, it should be transported quickly to the processing factory Tea by trucks with specialized containers or by trucks carrying bags containing leaves receiving tea leaves Before being put into the warehouse, it must be carefully checked the quality assessment criteria Water receiving Water is received from a water factory and stored in large water tanks Aluminum Aluminum foil sachets are delivered from the supplier and stored in the foil sachet warehouse Leaves are washed to remove residue, sand on the surface of tea leaves The Washing water used to wash the tea leaves has a temperature of 25-30º C and drains Firstly, the tea particles need to be made into small particles to increase the surface area contact of tea particles to the solvent to extract more soluble Rolling/Grinding solid from the structure of the particles and not to impair the extraction yield Normally, the range of the particles size from around 100 micrometers to around 180 micrometers is optimal Drying: High-temperature drying is not desirable for water-soluble components of green tea contain very easily oxidizable components, Drying (Steaming) such as ascorbic acid and catechins Therefore, such drying methods as vacuum drying, freeze-drying, and spray drying are considered suitable 9 10 11 12 Steaming: The method comprises the following steps of pre-dissolving the tea raw materials such as tea leaves, tea stems, and tea residue, performing steam explosion under the pressure of 0.8 to 1.8MPa, keeping the pressure for 0.5 to times, collecting the steam explosion material, and performing purification, concentration and drying according to the state of a steam explosion system to produce the instant green tea powder Using the hot extraction, the size of particles should be maintained larger, usually more than 500 micrometers to 800 micrometers The type of solvent used for this step should be low cost, safe for human health, safe for the environment So now people more refer to use water or ethanol However, Extraction ethanol is much more expensive compared to water So, people tend to use hot water with a temperature from 70oC to 90oC to increase the extraction yield of the soluble solid from the materials The ratio between the dry matters (tea particles) to the solvent should be in the range of 1:2 to 1:10 mean portion in weight of the dry matters and portions in weight of the solvent until 10 portions in weight of the solvent Filtration At this step, the mixture of solid and liquid matters will be filtrated to remove extraneous objects or solid materials from the extraction step The main purpose of this step is to utilize some ways to recover or collect the volatile through the technique of condensation People use water vapor flow to move this volatile together with water vapor through another lower Aroma Stripping temperature area, with the absolute humidity if it moves to the lower temperature area, the condensation occurs When condensation occurs, water vapor will be condensed into the liquid form and the volatile will be dissolved in the solution This solution will be remixed with the input fluid before the freeze-drying step Using the osmotic evaporation (OE) process: The effect of the OE process on the content of phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity was evaluated The concentration process was carried out in a hollow fiber membrane contactor with an effective surface area of 0.54 m2 The tea extract was Concentration circulated through the shell side of the contactor, while a concentrated osmotic solution (CaCl2 M) was circulated inside the fibers It is possible to reach a tea concentration of 40% (w/w) in 5h, with a constant water flux and without losing the phenolic content and antioxidant potential in most teas During the freezing stage, the material is cooled below its triple point, the lowest temperature at which the solid, liquid, and gas phases of the material can coexist To facilitate faster and more efficient freezePre-Chilling drying, larger ice crystals are preferable To produce larger crystals, (Freezing) the product should be frozen slowly Temperature: -18OC Time: hours Method: Using a cryogenic freezer upstream of a spiral freezer 10 C: P: Sand, dust, insect fragments Rolling/Grinding - M H ✓ - HACCP OPRP HACCP ✓ OPRP ✓ ✓

water, and aluminum foil sachet), (2) handling tea leaves (washing tea leaves, rolling/griding, drying), (3) instant green tea powder processing (extraction, filtration, aroma stripping, concentration, pre-chilling, freezedrying), (4) packing and metal checking stage (packaging, sealing by heat sealer, metal detector, and labeling) For each step in the production of instant green tea powder, four hazards (biological, physical, chemical, and allergen) need to be identified To determine whether the hazards are CCP or not, it is necessary to answer four questions of the decision tree Overall, there are three steps that are considered as CCP By answering five questions of decision tree, each hazard is determined to be an OPRP or not Generally, there are six steps that are considered as OPRP in processing Non-CCP hazards: Several processing steps are not CCP because: - Some of the steps can be controlled by checking the quality of the raw materials before they are used (receiving water, tea leaves, ) - Some steps are controlled by the good implementation of GMP, GHP, SSOP, so they are CP - In some steps, they have been had measures related to the environment and a combination of control measures to eliminate or reduce hazards to an acceptable limit in the end product Several steps like pre-chilling, packaging, boxing/labeling, etc can control temperature, periodically check equipment, and put it in the proper places in the production line In addition, some steps like water receiving, washing, tea leaves receiving can also control the number of pesticides, toxic substances, so they are OPRP - Few steps in production are eliminated or handled in subsequent steps (pathogenic microorganisms can be controlled in step 13 (freeze-drying), sand, gravel can be controlled in step (washing), impurities of metal samples can be controlled in step 17 (metal detector) - Several steps are controlled by AVL/COA 21 CCP hazards: • CCP-1 (B): It is a microbial hazard that may occur during the freeze-drying step The main microorganisms are L monocytogene and Salmonella may still survive in the frozen tea concentrate The freeze-drying process is specially designed with a temperature at -35oC in hours which is far away from the ideal conditions for the growth and development of these dangerous bacteria The cross-contamination from environmental factors such as the unclean machine, the untreated processing space surrounding can lead to the welcome of some pathogenic bacteria that can be harmful to the final product Besides that, the freeze-drying step is also the subsequence step to control other bacterial hazards such as E coli microorganisms, yeasts, and molds from the filtration step, and L monocytogene and Salmonella form pre-chilling step if they may be not treated carefully For this CCP, the corrective actions are isolating the batch of frozen tea concentrate contaminated with microorganisms; destroying or using the failed product for other purposes; additionally, are determining the cause of this contamination during the freezedrying process, and retraining the line operators if necessary To complete the verification, microbiological testing must be done after each batch of the products • CCP-2 (B): It is a microbial hazard during the sealing process When the product is not completely and properly sealed, green tea powder will easily absorb moisture from the air because it has been freeze-dried, so it has high hygroscopicity Air humidity in Vietnam is relatively high, so if not controlled properly, it will affect the nutritional content and quality of green tea powder When moisture is absorbed into the green tea powder, it creates conditions for the growth of microorganisms in the green tea powder (especially mold) This hazard can not be reduced or eliminated in subsequent steps, so it is considered as CCP The corrective actions are training the operator, stopping the sealing process if the product is not completely sealed, isolating the product that is not completely sealed and left out for too long To verify it, the operation of the machine and the humidity in the air must be checked before starting work, the finished product of each batch must be inspected • CCP-3 (P): The last CCP is a physical hazard that may occur during the metal detector step The main physical hazard is metal fragments that still appear in the product Metal fragments may be detected in the instant green tea powder by an electronic metal detector However, if the electronic metal detector is not properly calibrated, processing factors such as ambient humidity may create an interference signal that may mask metal fragments Metal fragments should 22 also be considered a significant hazard at the metal detector step The hazard of metal fragments may also be controlled by passing the product through the metal detector to remove product packages containing metal Metal fragments can be removed from a green tea powder after they have been introduced by passing it through a screen, magnet, or flotation tank In addition, the metal detector step is also the subsequence step to detect another physical such as impurities of metal sample in instant green tea powder In this step, it should need to set critical limits that no metal fragments are detected in the product that passes through the metal detector Take the following corrective action if the product is involved in a critical limit deviation that reworks to remove metal fragments from any product rejected by the metal detector To verify it, the metal detector needs to be checked by using validated sensitivity standards daily, every four hours during operation Non-OPRP hazards: Part of the processing is not OPRP because: - A few steps are PRP (paper box receiving, Aluminum foil sachet receiving, ) - Some other steps are CCP (freeze-drying, sealing by heat sealer, metal detector) - Several steps have control measures that can be easily eliminated or handled hazards during production such as cleaning, inspection, concentration control, monitoring, maintenance, etc., so they are not OPRP OPRP hazards: • OPRP-1 (C): It is a potential chemical hazard that can occur during the tea leaves receiving step Details that, after harvesting, trucks with specialized boxes or trucks holding teabags transfer the tea leaves rapidly to the processing plant As a result, tea leaves can be polluted by the environment during the transit process Tea can also be influenced by chemical factors such as inappropriate use of agrochemicals, sabotage, adulteration, residues of pesticides and pesticides This hazard control measure is raw material quality check by the criteria of residues of pesticides which must meet the standards of Circular 50/2016/TT-BYT (Vietnam) The corrective actions of this OPRP are mentioned as follows if the criteria exceed the allowable limit, then stop production, isolate the batch of materials, contact the supplier to return the goods Recall production from that batch of materials, then reassesses, increasing the frequency of material quality checks to months/time Besides, verification is also very necessary because, through this work, it is possible to control the quality of raw materials received They are checked every months and QC will be the manager and check the result sheet 23 • OPRP-2 (C): It is a potential chemical hazard that can occur during the water receiving step In particular, pesticides, toxic substances can be mixed in the water that is received Thus, this hazard will be controlled by GMP and SSOP by the way that takes a water sample before used for testing The corrective actions of this OPRP are listed as follows determining the cause of the contaminated water; treating or disposing of the water source and changing to a new water source if necessary As for verification, firstly, making a diagram of the water supply system Secondly, controlling the operation of the system to maintain good operation of the treatment system, protecting and preventing the water source from the risk of contamination Finally, checking water quality: planning and taking test samples, handling problems when having results • OPRP-3 (P): It is a potential physical hazard that can occur during the washing step Sand, dust, insect fragments are things that can be left in the water used to wash the tea leaves Hence, it is necessary to perform well GMP and SSOP, clean and maintain the machine regularly Besides, the operating capacity of the machine during processing must meet the cleaning of leaves The corrective actions of this OPRP according to process that training operators for proper control After that, the alternative procedure is used Next, tea leaves are washed again About products, after the product is detected a problem, it needs to be fixed immediately to avoid affecting the next process Finally, inspecting finished products for each batch for verification • OPRP-4 (B): It is a microbial hazard that may occur during the pre-chilling (freezing) step The main microorganisms are L monocytogenes, Salmonella may still survive during pre-chilling In this step, it is specially set up with a temperature at -18oC in two hours which proper condition for inhibiting microorganisms However, if the temperature, the time is not adjusted correctly and the equipment is not checked carefully, the microbiological hazard can occur in this step Thus, the pre-chilling process must be controlled the time and temperature, there is a specific sanitizing process, especially the humidity control is extremely important because this is a condition for the growth of microorganisms For this OPRP, the corrective actions are stopping the prechilling process and adjusting the temperature, time exactly, determining the cause of microbial contamination during the pre-chilling process, and thoroughly inspecting the machinery periodically by a mechanical engineer; additionally, the product must be destroyed immediately or used for other purposes To verify it, we need to test the chiller at standard temperature daily, checking and cleaning the chiller every month periodically 24 • OPRP-5 (B): It is a microbial hazard during packaging The main pathogenic is the survival of C botulinum, E coli, Salmonella from workers, and mold during packaging control of temperature, humidity, and personal hygiene before entry into production to reduce the adverse effects of microbiological hazards The corrective actions include isolating the entire product of the frozen tea concentrate batch, sampling product for testing; and disposition of product contaminated with organisms or mold by destroying or reusing it for another purpose To verify this, we need to check worker hygiene, product storage environment temperature, and humidity • OPRP-6 (B): The last OPRP is a microbial hazard during the boxing/labeling process The main pathogenic is the survival of spore-forming bacteria (Bacillus spp., Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp.), and mold during boxing/labeling The boxing/labeling process is specially designed with dry space; the automatic boxing machine is cleaned and up to standard For this OPRP, the corrective actions are stopping the boxing process, determining the cause of mold and bacterial contamination; contacting the cleaning department if necessary; additionally, discard products showing signs of mold To complete the verification, a finished product inspection in each batch must be done after the boxing/labeling process Conclusion: To have good and quality instant green tea powder products, besides a properly designed manufacturing plant layout, a suitable product manufacturing process The products must meet the standards of HACCP, ISO 22000, as well as be assessed for risk and identified hazards by the HACCP plan and OPRPs plan which focuses on hazard identification, assessment, and control so that the hazards can be identified, assessed, and then the appropriate corrective actions and control measures for these hazards will be applied REFERENCES
