Chip Starnes and Dolan Falconer, Co-Founders of Scantech Sciences, to Speak to Inventor Academy December 9
Dolan Falconer and Chip Starnes from Scantech Sciences, the leading developer and operator of E-beam food treatment systems, will speak to the Jefferson Lab Internal Inventor Academy on Dec. 9 at 1 PM. Scantech’s patented Electronic Cold-PasteurizationTM (ECPTM) replaces outdated fumigation, methyl bromide and hot water treatment with a fast, consistent and green E-beam technology. ECPTM processing moves produce through the E-beam, while maintaining the cold chain, even in its retail packaging, for only milliseconds on a high-speed conveyor. ECPTM has been cited by the U.S. FDA as the “new gold standard” in food treatment.
Dolan Falconer has over thirty years of extensive experience managing advanced technological development programs for private corporations and the federal government. He is the Co-founder and former CEO of ScanTech Sciences and was a key member of the management and technical team that developed the core electron beam technology that is the cornerstone of the company.
