Evaporator for Ripening Bananas with Capacity 35kw

Evaporator for ripening bananas with a capacity of 35kw

An evaporator used in banana ripening facilities plays a critical role in controlling humidity and temperature. Here's a breakdown of how it works and its role in banana ripening:

Purpose of the Evaporator:

Cooling: The evaporator cools the air in the ripening room, which helps maintain the optimal temperature for banana ripening, typically between 14°C and 20°C (57°F to 68°F), depending on the stage of ripening.

Humidity Control: Maintaining high humidity (usually between 90% and 95%) is essential to prevent moisture loss from the bananas, which can lead to uneven ripening or shriveling. The evaporator helps to manage this by adjusting the dew point.

Ethylene Distribution: Ethylene gas is used to induce ripening in bananas. The evaporator's air circulation ensures even distribution of ethylene in the ripening room.

How It Works:

The evaporator contains refrigerant coils that cool the air as it circulates through the room.

Humidifiers are often integrated to keep the room moist while the evaporator ensures the temperature remains stable.

Fans are typically used with the evaporator to move the cooled air evenly across the space, ensuring all bananas ripen uniformly.
