Abstract (en)
[origin: WO0052969A1] A product (19; 69; 119-121; 169; 219; 292) intended for consumption is placed in a container (1; 51; 101; 151; 201; 251; 301) and shielded by a shield (8-11; 58; 108; 158; 208; 258; 308) of the product against microwaves. A field of microwaves is generated, while microwave energy in an area around or at the product is converted into heat whereby the product is heated. Because the energy conversion medium (1; 51; 125; 175; 225; 275; 325) in which the conversion of microwaves into heat takes place, before the start of the generation of the field of microwaves, is present outside the shield and in the container in an energy conversion unit (1; 51; 126; 175; 177, 184; 225, 227; 275, 277; 325, 327) in which the energy conversion medium is kept separate from the product, the energy conversion medium can be placed in the container a considerable time before the heating of the product without having a negative influence on the storage life.
