Research Abstract |
To develop a low temperature and high humid storage system for fresh produce by using nano-size mist, a simulation and experiments as follows were conducted; 1) simulation of changes in temperature, humidity and air velocity in a storage equipped with nano-size mist humidifier; 2) inactivation of microorganisms in the storage by photo catalyst; 3) removal of microorganism and dust in the storage by electrostatic precipitation; 4)control of transpiration of fresh produce stored in the high humid storage. As a result, a detailed distribution of temperature, humidity and air velocity was obtained and a possibility of disinfection and electrostatic precipitation in the storage was indicated. In addition a weight loss of fresh produce was controlled by the nano-size mist more efficiently than a larger size mist.
