Uses of fruit and vegetable washing machines
Feb 07, 2025| The uses of fruit and vegetable washing machines mainly include the following aspects:
Degradation of pesticide residues: Fruit and vegetable washing machines can effectively degrade pesticide residues on the surface of fruits and vegetables through technologies such as ultrasound, ozone or hydroxyl free radicals. Ultrasonic technology releases energy by generating cavitation bubbles and breaking them to disintegrate pesticide residues; ozone technology decomposes pesticides and hormones through oxidation; hydroxyl free radical technology generates strong oxidizing free radicals through electrolysis of water, which react with pesticides and other pollutants to generate harmless substances.
Sterilization and disinfection: Fruit and vegetable washing machines can not only remove pesticide residues, but also kill bacteria. Ultrasonic technology destroys bacterial structure through cavitation effect, ozone technology kills bacteria through oxidation, and hydroxyl free radical technology kills various microorganisms through strong oxidation.
Removal of heavy metals: Some fruit and vegetable washing machines use ozone technology, which can oxidize heavy metal particles and make them fall off from the surface of fruits and vegetables, thereby effectively removing heavy metal ions.
Freshness preservation and odor removal: Washed fruits and vegetables can extend the shelf life and remove odors in the refrigerator. The washing machine maintains the freshness of fruits and vegetables and prevents food odor by degrading pesticides and sterilizing.
Air purification: Some fruit and vegetable washing machines can also remove harmful substances such as formaldehyde and paint odor in newly renovated houses and purify indoor air.
