How many degrees is suitable for banana cold storage? How long can bananas be stored in cold storage?

  Banana is a tropical fruit, and the storage temperature is generally not very low. Too low temperature will cause chilling injury, blackening of banana skin and hardening of flesh. Usually the storage temperature is set between 13℃~14℃, and the relative humidity is maintained at 85%~95%. In this range, bananas can effectively extend the shelf life and slow down the ripening speed of bananas. If it is a banana ripening cold storage, there are different design schemes.

  How many degrees is suitable for banana cold storage? How long can bananas be stored in cold storage?

The storage temperature of unripe banana fresh cold storage is between 13℃~14℃, which can slow down the ripening speed and extend the shelf life. For ripe bananas, excessive ripening should be suppressed, and the storage temperature can be adjusted to 12℃~13℃. Bananas can be stored in cold storage for about 15-30 days, but the storage situation needs to be checked regularly for timely sales. The humidity of banana cold storage should be reasonably controlled to prevent dehydration and shriveling. In addition, bananas should be stored separately because they release ethylene gas, so they should be avoided from being stored with fruits such as apples that release ethylene gas.

  When bananas are taken out of the cold storage, they should be opened regularly for ventilation to avoid ethylene accumulation and causing bananas to ripen too quickly and rot. There are two types of banana cold storage construction, one is banana fresh cold storage, and the other is banana ripening storage. Fresh cold storage is used to extend the storage period of bananas. Ripening storage is used to accelerate the ripening speed of bananas. There are certain differences in the construction plans and temperatures of the two cold storages.

  Citrus cold storage fresh-keeping temperature, citrus cold storage storage method for 1-9 months

  Citrus is a common fruit. There are many types of citrus, including oranges, oranges, mandarins, grapefruits, lemons, etc. After picking, these fruits lose the supply of roots and will gradually consume their own nutrients, resulting in rot and deterioration. In order to extend the shelf life of citrus, companies usually build fresh cold storage or atmosphere-controlled cold storage for storage.
