ORAIPL is the trusted market leader in the design and manufacture of Ozone Generators and Ozonations systems, for effectively using Ozone in Food Processing industry. Ozone is a powerful disinfectant, and has been used since more than a 100 years to disinfect Municipal water and to preserve meat and produce. Since 1982, Ozone has been used for disinfecting bottled water in the USA. Ozone does not leave behind any harmful by-products, is odorless and tasteless, and therefore is very useful for disinfecting food products, sanitizing surfaces in food lines, and for wastewater treatment in the food processing industry.
According to an article by the Institute of Food Technologists, USA, Ozone is the best option to use for sanitizing and disinfecting food processing lines and surfaces, and for disinfecting fresh produce, seafood and other processed food products, while improving their quality and shelf life.
Ozone is a very powerful antimicrobial agent, and can be used in both gas and liquid form safely for treating food. Ozone can be safely applied directly to food without any harmful effect, and with high disinfection efficiency. Ozone can be applied to food in gaseous form, or dissolved in water to use as a spray or dipping agent. Both Fortune 500 companies, and small food processing units now use Ozone in their plants.
ORAIPL can design and install Ozone Generators and Ozonation Systems of any capacity, for on-site production of Ozone in food processing industry.
Fruit and Vegetable Processing
Ozone is a very powerful disinfectant, and can be used to disinfect fresh fruits and vegetables. Fresh produce can have traces of pesticides, fertilizers and pathogens from human contact. Traditionally fresh produce is washed by water, to which Chlorine is added as a disinfectant. But Chlorine is not 100% effective, and can leave undesirable by-products on the produce. Ozonated water is much more effective than Chlorine in killing microbes and pathogens, and more effective then Chlorine in killing E-Coli, which is most important in the food industry. The runoff water can be easily re-used, as it is completely fresh because of the ozonation.
Ozone can also be used in Cold Storage to prevent the growth of mold and bacteria on food produce. A very low concentration of Ozone is required in Cold Storage application, but the effectiveness is huge. A lot of fruits give out Ethylene gas, and this accelerates the ripening of other varieties fruits stored in the cold storage. The fruits may become overripe in storage, before reaching the market. Ozone can breakdown ethylene gas, and slow down the effect of ripening, which is very useful when a mixed produce is stored in the Cold Storage. ORAIPL can design, customize and manufacture Ozone Generators for Fruit and Vegetable processing industry and Cold Storages.
Poultry
Ozone can be used effectively in the Poultry industry for disinfecting and purifying the Air and Water used by the birds. It can also be used to in treatment and storage of Eggs, and Meat Products. Ozone can also be used in the transport and storage of poultry, eggs and meat. Ozone being a very powerful oxidant can be used to disinfect the drinking water for birds, sterilization of the poultry equipment and disinfection of eggs and meat. Ozone can be used to kill viruses, bacteria and other pathogens in the poultry farm, and to keep the poultry healthy and disease free. Ozone can also be effectively used to eliminate bad odor from the poultry farm. ORAIPL can design and manufacture Ozone Generators for Poultry industry.
Sea Food Processing
Ozone being a very powerful disinfectant, and a powerful oxidizing agent, can be used very effectively in all stages of the Sea Food processing industry. When the fish is caught on the fishing vessel, it has a thin biofilm which contains bacteria, and is the main reason for decomposition of fish. When sprayed with Ozonated water, this biofilm is destroyed and it immediately increases the storage life of the fish.
In a Seafood processing plant, ozonated water can be used to sanitize and disinfect all the equipment, and the seafood. Ozone kills all bacteria, especially Salmonella and E Coli which are of main concern to the seafood industry. Food safety is very important in the Seafood industry, and using Ozone in the water used to process seafood and hugely improve food safety and shelf life. Almost all kinds of seafood processing plants that produce shrimp, salmon, lobster, halibut, catfish and other seafood are using Ozonation systems effectively. Ozone is a better alternative to using Chlorine, because Chlorine can leave behind harmful by-products, and sometimes is also the reason for an”off smell’ in seafood. Using Ozonated water in Seafood processing eliminates any “off smell” and makes the seafood much more palatable to the consumer. ORAIPL has expertise in designing and manufacturing Ozone Generators for the Sea Food processing industry.
Beef & Red Meat Processing
Beef and Red Meat is very prone to contamination by microbes, mainly E-Coli. E-Coli contamination is the number reason for recall of beef and red meat products from the market shelves. It is imperative for any beef and red meat processing unit to make sure that the meat is processed in a completely sanitized and disinfected processing line, and there is no contamination from the time of processing to final packaging.
Ozone is a very powerful anti-microbial agent, and is proven to be most effective against E-Coli, especially O157:H7 E.Coli, which is the most common contaminant in beef and red meat. ORAIPL manufactures and installs Ozone Generators and ozonation systems for the Beef and Read Meat Processing industry.
Pork Processing
Ozone is very useful in the Pork Processing industry. Right from sanitizing and disinfecting carcasses, to processing lines to packaging lines, ozone is the most powerful disinfectant available, more powerful than Chlorine. Ozone gets converted into Oxygen after use and does not leave behind any harmful residue. It does not leave any odor and add any taste to the product. The efficiency of Ozone remains intact where you use it in room temperature water or hot water. Because Ozone breaks down the molecular structure of all pathogens and microorganisms, it completely eliminates all traces of contamination
