Résumé

Green bell peppers (Capsicum annuum cv. Cardio) were stored in open crates at 5 °C, using a novel system for maintenance of relative humidity. A hollow fibre membrane contactor allowed adequate transfer of water vapour between the air in the storage room and a liquid desiccant. The membrane was made of polyetherimide, coated on the inside with a thin non-porous silicone layer. The desiccant was a dilute aqueous glycerol solution, which was pumped through the hollow fibres at a low flow rate. Produce was placed in ventilated 500 l containers with a closed liquid.
