Abstract

PURPOSE:To usefully and effectively reutilize wastes, such as coal ash, as a freshness retaining material for vegetables and fruits by adding an alkaline aqueous medium to a mixture of the coal ash with paper making sludge and enriching agent. CONSTITUTION:The objective freshness retaining material for vegetables and fruits obtained by mixing (A) coal ash and/or paper making sludge with (B) an enriching agent (e.g. silicic acid-based or aluminum-based enriching agent) at 1-10% weight ratio and adding (C) 80-160g/l alkaline aqueous medium (e.g. aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide) thereto and heating the resultant mixture at >=90 deg.C. Corrugated boxes for packing the vegetables and fruits are lined with the above-mentioned retaining material in a powdery or granular form or the aforementioned material is mixed in the vegetables and fruits for use.

It can be used in powdered or granulated form, and can be mixed into fruits and vegetables for preservation, or lined in cardboard boxes for packaging fruits and vegetables, and used for transportation. The freshness-preserving agent produced according to the present invention can be formed into a powder, granule, or plate shape, and can be mixed into fruits and vegetables or used as a lining or filling in a storage container. (contact or proximity).

このようにして青果物の鮮度が保持できる理由は次のご
とく考えられる。
The reason why the freshness of fruits and vegetables can be maintained in this way is thought to be as follows.

When this occurs and fills around fruits and vegetables, they rot quickly. In other words, it becomes difficult to maintain freshness, but by placing the substance produced by the method of the present invention in close proximity, the substance adsorbs the above gas and reduces the concentration of ethylene gas etc. around fruits and vegetables, thereby acting as an adsorbent. It is recognized that it fully performs its functions, slows down the process of spoilage, and maintains freshness.
