Heated flooder for sanitation in fresh produce processing
In the fresh produce industry, maintaining high standards of sanitation is crucial to prevent decay and residue on various types of fruits and nuts. Traditional methods often fall short, requiring innovative solutions to ensure thorough and efficient treatment.
Ensures superior residues and decay control
The JBT Heated Flooder is designed to sanitize fresh produce by providing excellent coverage while utilizing a relatively low concentration of fungicide. Unlike traditional tank treatments or non-recovery sprays, this system ensures efficient fungicide use and minimizes waste. The heated water maintains its temperature better between the weir and the fruit, thereby improving energy efficiency and residue deposition. It is compatible with PAA or chlorine sanitizers, depending on the fungicide used. The system’s low water volume reduces disposal needs and its small footprint allows for easy installation over existing equipment. The Heated Flooder is ideal for fresh produce processing, providing effective decay control without damaging the products.
