Fruit passes through many segments of the supply chain from the moment fruit is harvested until the moment fruit arrives in the hands of the customer. Some fruits have a thin peel or a very fair fruit peel, and these fruits easily spoil in transport or storage. In addition, many procedures such as cleaning, disinfecting, and preserving freshness can damage such easily-spoiled fruits. And damaged fruit is a waste that costs money. To solve this problem, and reduce the ratio of damaged fruit, Shandong AWT Bio-tech Co., Ltd. designed the Deu-Alpha electrical heater and humidifier. This machine can effectively disinfect fruit and extend its freshness.
The electrical heater and humidifier is widely applicable
Wang, the sales manager at Shandong AWT Bio-tech, first introduced the capabilities of their Deu-Alpha: "The electrical heater and humidifier can apply preservation fluid or other treatments in a mist of fine droplets with a low viscosity. This method is suitable for potatoes (to inhibit sprouting), stone fruits, apples, plums, oranges, East Asian crab apples, loquat, pear, and berries. This treatment also helps to prevent mildew, pustules, black spots, or core rot in oranges, grapes, apples, and pears that are kept in cold storage. At the same time this method also prevents disinfectant residue from discoloring the fruit peel or forming a waxy layer on the fruit peel.
The advantages of an electrical heater and humidifier
Water-soluble disinfectant is the most common disinfection method in the fruit industry. When asked about the advantages of an electrical heater and humidifier, manager Wang answered, "compared to water-soluble disinfectant, the humidifier is more efficient. Take, for example, a refrigerated warehouse of 800m³ with around 160 tons of fruit. First the fruit has to be taken to the washing line where water-soluble disinfectant is applied. That requires a lot of manual labor as the fruit then needs to be boxed again and returned to the warehouse. This takes upwards of 8 hours at least. The electrical heater and humidifier only takes 1 hour to disinfect the same volume and there is no need for manual labor in moving fruit back and forth."
"Traditional disinfection methods leave a waxy residue on the fruit peel and are likely to damage its pristine coloring. And if the fruit is not properly dried afterwards the disinfectant can be harmful. Even worse, droplets left on the fruit are ideal environments for micro-organisms that then cause the fruit to spoil. This is particularly harmful for strawberries, blueberries, grapes, and plums. The waxy residue on the fruit peel of these fruits can limit the breathing process and give harmful bacteria an opportunity to penetrate the fruit peel. Easily-spoiled fruits such as oranges, bananas, and dragon fruit all need to be immediately dried or the droplets on the fruit peel give harmful bacteria a way in," explained manager Wang.
"The electrical heater and humidifier, however, avoids all of these problems. Moreover, the use of an electrical heater and humidifier will reduce production costs and make the purchase of soaking and drying equipment unnecessary. This greatly reduces the cost of production."
"Compared to the traditional heater and humidifier that runs on gasoline, or the cooler and humidifier, the electrical heater and humidifier produces smaller droplets that are more equally distributed. The mist more efficiently covers the fruit and the chemicals are therefore more effectively applied. In addition, the gasoline that is not completely burned up will produce harmful gases that affect the fruit and vegetables, and therefore the health of the people who eat them. The electrical heater and humidifier is easy and safe to use. The machine is reliable and environmentally friendly."
Shandong AWT Bio-tech was established in 1996. The company has close to 30 years of experience in research and development of fruit preservation methods. The company primarily works on preservation technology for fruit in storage, preservation injections, ripening stimulants, and preservation membranes, as well as research, manufacturing and retail of equipment that stimulates the informatization of agriculture. The company offers a wide range of product series and holds 36 patents. Their products are sold in Argentine, Mexico, New Zealand, Ecuador, Kenya, Pakistan, India, Turkey, and Serbia. Shandong AWT Bio-tech is always looking for enthusiastic retail partners.
