Post-Harvest Produce Sanitation Using Novel Energy-Efficient Nonthermal Plasma Reactor

Objective

We aim to develop a novel low-temperature plasma system to generate Plasma Activated Water (PAW) for improved post-harvest produce sanitation to reduce food spoilage.Compared with current mainstream Chlorine-based treatment, the proposed system provides comparable or superior sanitation efficacy without hazardous chemical storage and with reduced environmental impact.
