Summary

THE EFFECT OF HARVEST DATE AND VARIOUS CONTROLLED ATMOSPHERE DELAYS WAS STUDIED ON AN APPLE SLICE PRODUCTION LINE.

THE EFFECT ON THE BLANCHED SLICES WAS MUCH GREATER THAN THAT ON RAW SLICES. NUMEROUS PROCESS PARAMETERS INCLUDING WASTE AMOUNTS AND YIELDS WERE NOTABLY AFFECTED BY VARIOUS TREATMENT COMBINATIONS.
