An ethylene absorber is a device that is used in controlled atmosphere fruit storage to remove ethylene gas from the air in order to slow down the ripening and decay of fruits, vegetables, and other perishable items. When ethylene gas is present in the air, it can accelerate the ripening process and cause fruits and vegetables to spoil more quickly.
The Bioconservacion Ethylclean machine is a flexible air-treatment system, which ensures a hygienic environment, free of ethylene and other harmful microorganisms.
Producers, shippers, exporters, or other businesses that deal with produce storage can benefit by using the Ethylclean ethylene absorber.
By reducing the ethylene levels, the Ethylclean ethylene absorber can slow down the ripening process, increaing produce sales, reducing losses through rot, and improving the supermarket quality image.
The Ethylclean machine uses BI-ON granules to absorb ethylene, fungi spores, bacteria, and bad odors. Firmness, color, and freshness of produce are maintained,thereby reducing waste. The BI-ON granules are disposable, and compatible with organic produce; they do not leave any chemical residues on food (nonadditive).
