OZONE COLD STORAGE SANITISATION TRAIL
Ozone Cold Storage Sanitisation Trail
THE PROBLEM
Sanitisation challenges extend to storage and cold storage specifically, with regards to controlling airborne spore load.
THE SOLUTION
In this particular use case, because cold storage rooms are sealed and not trafficked by factory personnel, it is possible to place an ozone gas generator inside, which fills the cold storage with ozone temporarily and is then ventilated before anyone enters.
Air plates were placed in various locations in a cold store for 1 hour then incubated. An ozone gas system was placed in the cold store and allowed to run for 12 hours. A fresh set of air plates were then placed in the cold store for 1 hour and then incubated.
EVALUATION
The ozone effectively controlled the airborne spore load.
