Résumé

A simple spotted cooling unit (SCU) and micro-perforated plastic films with a high gas permeability were developed in order to improve the distribution system of fruits and vegetables practically. A SCU with a bellows structure was designed to maintain the air temperature at about 15 °C. For instance, spinach treated that manner lost only 10% of its ascorbic acid content over the 10-hour period after harvest. Broccoli, precooled on the spot at 15 °C and packed in polyethylene film was well preserved for 14 days before distribution. Utilization of a SCU and micro-perforated film packaging or the combination of the two was found to be suitable for freshness preservation in the distribution of fruits and vegetables.
