Abstract
  • Frozen storage is an integral part of effective food distribution. In general, both food quality retention and storage costs will increase as storage temperatures decrease. In this paper, we develop a model for optimal temperature design for semi-perishable seafood inventory, and apply the model to Pacific Whiting surimi. General results demonstrate that managing optimal temperature is a dynamic concept dependent on the time-temperature tolerance of frozen inventory, the cost of frozen storage, and the rate of inventory dissipation. Specific results show that the optimal storage temperature of surimi varies with the rate of inventory dissipation.
