Application of micro-bubble technology to construct a hygienic and quality production process for pineapple

Our research team has developed a standardized process for post-harvest cleaning of fruits and vegetables by using microbubble technology. Microbubbles with a size of 0.1mm (10-4to10-6) are generated to provide a uniform coating on the items. These microbubbles release strong mechanical forces, redox potential, and cell disruption, endowing water with cleaning, disinfection, and oil removal abilities when they burst. By combining with various gases and liquids, these microbubbles can enhance gas solubility and increase the concentration of gases in water through a larger surface area. This technology significantly increases the oxygen content in water, which is utilized to address the current issue of pest infestation, particularly shell pests, in fruits and vegetables in our country. The introduction of microbubble water cleaning enhances pest removal effects, addressing the pest problems currently faced on the surface of fruit and vegetable products.
