Low-ethylene CA storage for apples.

A programme is described for maintaining ethylene concentrations below 1 p.p.m. in CA storage. The programme involves (i) avoiding the sources of ethylene, especially avoiding the use of fossil-fuelled equipment; (ii) removal of ethylene released from apples during storage, using scrubbers based on catalyst combustion, chemisorption or ultraviolet radiation; and (iii) inhibition of ethylene production by using growth regulators, rapid cooling, and maintaining low oxygen and high carbon dioxide concentrations. A method is described for estimating the fruit internal ethylene concentration, and the effects of various factors internal and external to the fruit on the estimated internal ethylene concentration are analysed.
