Banana Ripening Chamber
India is the world’s largest producer of banana accounting for 26% of global production. Like any other agricultural produce, the banana too is highly perishable. In the raw state and at a low temperature the shelf life is long.
India is the world’s largest producer of banana accounting for 26% of global production. Like any other agricultural produce, the banana too is highly perishable. In the raw state and at a low temperature the shelf life is long. Hence, raw bananas are held in cold storages and transported, but are ripened only in the place of consumption. Typically, bananas are housed in a PUF insulated room along with refrigeration units to create and maintain desired temperature and humidity conditions for ripening. Ethylene is injected at a particular ppm level to ensure that the bananas get ripened within the desired period.
