INFORMATION
Benefit from a technology that zaps bacteria and
extends shelf life. Food Safety applies to all links in the food
chain, from the processor to the table. In keeping with the
industry's intense resolve to produce a safe food product, using
ozone will give processors an even greater assurance that their
products are safe, as well as environmentally friendly. The fact
that ozone leaves no residue in the water or on the product,
(because it breaks down, back to oxygen) means no change in color or
flavor. Using ozone gives more assurance against pathogenic E-coil
and similar organisms and at the same time, conserves water and
extends the shelf life of the product.
Studies have shown
that ozone is fifty one percent more powerful on bacterial cell
walls than chlorine, and the kill rate is 3125 times faster.
Recently, FDA and ADEC has approved the use of ozone as a sanitizer
for use in food processing plants. There are two steps in most
cleaning procedures. First, cleaning the surface areas and removing
the organic residues in which the bacteria live. The, secondly,
sanitizing to destroy any bacteria remaining on the surface. The
Department of the Environment published an article saying that no
secondary biocide is necessary when using ozone as it kills
bacteria, viruses, spores, fungi, mold, mildew, etc., without the
need for other products. Ozone has many uses, depending upon your
application.
Fruit and Vegetable
Growers Literally thousands of Australian made
Ozonaire systems are in use around the world protecting valuable
produce from the incursions of a range of food spoiling bacteria and
mould spores. The venerable model OA100 is the workhorse of the
industry, providing protection for growers and processors in cool
rooms, warehouses and anywhere valuable fruit and vegetable produce
is stored.
