Solution for the elimination of astringency in persimmons

To eliminate the astringency of persimmon, it is necessary to prevent protein coagulation. There are several methods for this, including exposure to a CO2-rich environment, which is the most common due to the homogeneity of the treatment and its effectiveness.

ABSOGER has developed a solution that allows the removal of astringency from persimmon by this process: an efficient, safe and fully automated method to facilitate operability.

Equipment:

1. Rack of CO2 bottles or tank to feed the system
2. Temperature regulation device
3. Automatic management system of O2/CO2/T°/HR/Pressure levels
4. Computer monitoring with remote control via PC or Smartphone.

Benefits:

• Homogeneity of diffusion for a similar result on each pallet
• Minimal maintenance without consumables
• Automatic operation, no additional personnel required: only 1 operator
• Traceability: recording of treatment application data
• Safety: automatic door locking and gas evacuation system.
