ClensAir®


Next Generation Ethylene Scrubbing Technology

ClensAir® E10 Patented Multistage Ethylene Scrubber

Overview

The ClensAir® E10 Ethylene Scrubber is designed to prolong the shelf life of both fruit and vegetables. The ClensAir reduces and maintains the concentration of ethylene in the air by using a patented 6 stage scrubbing process. This multi-stage process drastically increases efficiency resulting in faster and reliable ethylene reductions. This technology is perfect for ethylene-sensitive environments, such as cold storage facilities, ripening rooms, transportation containers, or post-harvest processing areas.


The ClensAir® Advantage

  • Effective Solution - ClensAir E10 systems employs cutting-edge technology to minimize ethylene gas levels, within fresh produce storage or processing environment. Their maintenance-free design reduces labor and long-term costs, while also contributing to the overall produce health.
  • Increasing Profitability - Mitigating ethylene levels in fresh produce storage spaces has a well-established track record in reducing spoilage and waste. Beyond the financial advantages of lowered costs and decreased claims, there are significant intangible benefits. Customers gain trust in your ability to consistently deliver fresh and safe produce, strengthening your reputation as a reliable provider.
  • Safe – ClensAir E10 stands out as the safest solution, as it eliminates exposure to chemicals or potentially dangerous gases like ozone, thereby reducing safety risks within your facility.
  • Sustainable - Ethylene Scrubbers employ 6 technologies, that come together as one unit to diminish ethylene, without resorting to toxic chemicals or risky gases. This approach also leads to reduced energy consumption and less wear-and-tear on equipment.

Why Ethylene is a Concern in Cold Chain Applications

For a considerable amount of time, experts worldwide have acknowledged the detrimental impacts of ethylene, which include:

  • Accelerating the aging, ripening, softening, and discoloration of various fruits like apples, pears, bananas, avocados, kiwis, apricots, peaches, and nectarines.

  • It was causing issues such as russet spotting in lettuce, yellowing in broccoli and greens, bitterness in carrots and parsnips, sprouting in potatoes, and toughness in asparagus.

  • It is leading to the abscission of floral products.
  • ClensAir to extend shelf life

    The Most Common Sources of Excess Ethylene Gas Include:

    • The release of excessive ethylene gas from ripening rooms.

    • Damaged or decaying produce.

    • Ethylene is naturally produced during the ripening process, especially in climacteric fruit.


    The ClensAir® System

    How does Clensair’s 6-stage scrubbing technologies work?

    ClensAir's patented multi-layer technologies work cohesively to efficiently reduce VOC’s like ethylene as the air is independently pulled and passed through. Each layer acts as the support structure for the next stage continually reducing VOCs. As the air reaches the heart of the chamber, where is exposed to enhanced photocatalytic oxidation combined with ultra-UV technology. At this Ethylene and other VOCs are diminished to minute amounts of carbon dioxide and humidity. Lastly, the air exits through a set self-activating media filtration that is as additional layer to remove any last remaining VOC’s.
