Description

Device and method for manufacturing ozone-rich gel water ball and gel water ball
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of gel water ball manufacturing and processing, in particular to a device and a method for manufacturing an ozone-rich gel water ball and the gel water ball.
Background
The fruit and vegetable has strong resistance before being harvested, and is not easy to be infected by microorganisms, but the resistance of the fruit and vegetable to the microorganisms is reduced along with the progress of life activities after being harvested, so that the fruit and vegetable is easy to be infected by the microorganisms, and the fruit and vegetable is rotten to lose commodity value.
At present, the storage mode of fruit and vegetable fresh-keeping is mainly based on common low-temperature and chemical preservative modes. However, these methods are mainly chemical means, and there is a possibility that the fruits and vegetables are subjected to secondary pollution. Therefore, the development of cheaper, efficient and safe fruit and vegetable storage and preservation technical means for controlling the after-ripening and aging of the fruits and vegetables and ensuring the edible safety of the fruits and vegetables is urgently needed.
In recent years, ozone fruit and vegetable fresh-keeping is fast in sterilization and free of secondary pollution, and is gradually a research hotspot in the field. By utilizing the strong oxidation and sterilization characteristics of ozone, ethylene in the storage environment of fruits and vegetables can be rapidly decomposed, and microorganisms in the storage environment can be killed, so that the aim of prolonging the fresh-keeping period of the fruits and vegetables can be fulfilled. In addition, harmful gases such as ethylene, ethanol, acetaldehyde and the like released by respiration of fruits and vegetables can be eliminated by ozone treatment, so that the respiration effect of the fruits is reduced, and the aging of the fruits and the vegetables is delayed.
Although the ozone is rapidly developed in the food industry, the ozone is still in the beginning stage in the aspect of fruit and vegetable preservation. The reason is that: (1) the sterilization effect of ozone is greatly influenced by temperature and humidity, different fruits and vegetables have different requirements, and the use of ozone is limited; (2) when the fruits and vegetables are in a sealed package state, the effect of keeping fresh by using ozone in a refrigeration house is not ideal; (3) the complete equipment of the ozone generator is developed slowly, so that the ozone is not widely applied to the fruit and vegetable fresh-keeping industry; (4) the high-concentration ozone has the harm effect on eyes, skin and respiratory tract of people, and meanwhile, the high-concentration ozone can reduce the quality of fruits and vegetables.
In addition, related researches also indicate that firstly, the relative conductivity of cell membranes of fruits and vegetables is improved by higher-concentration ozone, and chlorophyll and carotenoid are easy to damage; secondly, when the fruits and vegetables are preserved, if the ozone is used in improper concentration, the cells of the fruits and vegetables can be damaged, so that the permeability of the fruits and vegetables is increased, and the cell contents are leaked, thereby causing the quality reduction or the deterioration. On the contrary, other studies show that low-concentration ozone has good sterilization and fresh-keeping effects even under the conditions of low temperature and high humidity for a long time. For example, the ethylene generated in the storage process of fruits and vegetables can be effectively degraded, and meanwhile, the ethylene-containing composite material has a good inhibition effect on microorganisms causing food spoilage, such as mold and the like.
Therefore, an effective ozone preservation packaging method needs to be developed, so that the concentration of ozone in a closed environment can be maintained in a lower concentration range for a longer time, and the fruit and vegetable protection is facilitated.

Other operations including ambient temperature, ozone flow, height to diameter ratio in the first vessel, operating time, ozone generator apparatus, etc. were performed with the same specific parameters as in examples 1, 2, 3, and 4.
The results of measuring the change in ozone concentration of the gel water spheres of examples 1 to 4 with time at ambient temperature of 2 ± 1 ℃ in the sealed bags (200 × 400mm) in which 100g of the gel water spheres of examples 1 to 4 were prepared according to examples 1 to 4, respectively, are shown in fig. 1, wherein 1, 2, 3, and 4 respectively correspond to the gel water spheres of examples 1, 2, 3, and 4. As can be seen from FIG. 1, the concentration of ozone released from the gel water ball made by the constant pressure device 8 is better than the first hollow column 11 of the first container 1 which is a spherical hollow column and the second air inlet pipe 6 which is arranged on the gel water ball in ozone dissolving. But it is not doubtful that the methods of examples 1-4 are all beneficial to the dissolution of ozone, and the gel water balls prepared in examples 1-4 can keep higher and longer ozone release amount under the condition of the same amount of water balls, which is very beneficial to the preservation of fruits and vegetables in the transportation process. In addition, under the same fresh-keeping condition (proper ozone release amount), the weight of the water polo can be reduced to achieve the same effect, so that the transportation and manufacturing cost can be reduced.
Compared with the prior art, the device and the method for manufacturing the gel water ball and the gel water ball utilize the characteristic that the sodium alginate and the calcium lactate can quickly form the gel water ball, the sodium alginate solution is contained in the first hollow containing column of the first container, the calcium lactate solution is contained in the second container, ozone generated by the ozone generator is infused into the sodium alginate solution through ozone bubbles generated by the first microporous aeration head, the ozone bubbles are broken and reduced by the plurality of porous plates, so that the sodium alginate solution is filled with more ozone, and then the ozone is dripped into the calcium lactate solution to form the gel water ball. The gel water ball can effectively wrap ozone in the sodium alginate solution to obtain the gel water ball rich in ozone concentration. The device for preparing the ozone-rich gel water ball has a simple structure, and can be used for preparing the ozone-rich gel water ball; the gel water ball rich in ozone can effectively control the release and degradation speed of ozone within a certain range in a low-temperature and high-humidity environment and maintain for a long time, and then fruits and vegetables can be kept fresh by ozone with a certain concentration in a closed environment.
The above-mentioned embodiments only express several embodiments of the present invention, and the description thereof is more specific and detailed, but not construed as limiting the scope of the invention. It should be noted that, to those skilled in the art, changes and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention, and it is intended that the present invention encompass such changes and modifications.
