1. Введение
The bubble washing machine vegetable and fruit is an advanced piece of equipment designed for cleaning fresh produce using a combination of water immersion и air bubble agitation. This cleaning method is gentle, эффективный, and environmentally friendly, making it suitable for both delicate and firm produce.
As global consumers increasingly demand ready-to-eat, pre-washed, and organic-certified produce, processors are upgrading from traditional manual washing to fully automated bubble washing systems.
1.1 Why Bubble Washing Matters in Modern Food Processing
- Соответствие безопасности пищевых продуктов
Regulatory agencies such as the FDA, EU Commission, and CFIA require food producers to minimize microbial contamination, pesticide residues, and physical debris. - Product Quality Preservation
Bubble washing prevents bruising, discoloration, and nutrient loss, especially important for export markets. - Операционная эффективность
Handles high volumes — from 500 kg/h for small plants к 10,000+ kg/h for large industrial facilities.
2. How a Bubble Washing Machine Works
А bubble washing machine vegetable and fruit uses air bubbles generated by a blower to gently agitate produce in water, loosening dirt and contaminants.
2.1 The Process Flow
- Loading
Produce enters via a conveyor or manual hopper. - Water Tank Immersion
Fruits and vegetables are fully submerged. - Bubble Injection
Compressed air enters through perforated pipes, creating turbulence. - Dirt Separation
Heavy particles settle, light debris floats away. - Final Rinse
Clean water sprays remove any residual contaminants. - Увольнять
A conveyor transfers produce to the next processing stage.
2.2 Key Science Behind Bubble Cleaning
- Hydrodynamic Effect: Bubbles create micro-currents that penetrate leaf folds.
- Surface Tension Reduction: Air bubbles reduce adhesion between dirt and produce skin.
- Oxygen Enrichment: Helps maintain freshness during cleaning.
