Ozone in the Food Industry
Because ozone is a safe, powerful disinfectant, it can be used to control the biological growth of unwanted
organisms in products and equipment used in the food processing industries. Ozone is particularly suited
to the food industry because of its ability to disinfect microorganisms without adding chemical by-products to the food being treated, or to the food processing water or atmosphere in which food is
stored.
In gaseous form, ozone can act as a preservative for certain food products and can also sanitize food
packaging materials. Some products currently being preserved with ozone include eggs during cold
storage, fresh fruits and vegetables, and fresh fish.
How does it Work
*Air-borne microbiological control
*Low ozone levels (<0.3ppm) will inhibit microbiological growth in the air
*High ozone levels can be used for disinfection when the room is empty
*Ethylene Removal (C2H4) Eliminate mold growth from cold storage area
*Ethylene is expelled from fruit and vegetables during ripening
*High Ethylene levels speed the ripening process
*Surface sanitation
Fruits and vegetables will carry bacteria and mold directly out of the field,
which reduces shelf life and can cause serious health issues. While nearly all
food processing facilities rinse produce with clean water, rinsing alone does
not adequately sanitize against mold and bacteria.
Methods of Ozone Application:
*Gaseous ozone can be distributed throughout a cold storage facility at low
levels
*Ozone-sterilized ice is used to pack fresh fish and seafood to prolong
freshness
*Ozone gas is used in meat coolers to inhibit microbiological growth and
extend shelf life
*Ozone is dissolved into water to wash fruits and vegetables to remove mold and bacteria
*Extend shelf-life of the product within the cold storage facility
*Air-borne microbiological control
*Surface sanitation can be maintained
*Eliminate mold growth from cold storage area
