CO2 extraction
Full control, without energy waste
- Reduced energy use for CO2 refreshment
- CO2 refreshment no longer affects the temperature and humidity in your store
- Less weight loss
General
The CO2 concentration in your store affects the quality of your potatoes. Daily CO2 refreshment with outside air is absolutely necessary, because too high concentrations can suffocate the potatoes, and negatively influence their frying colour. The problem is, conventional CO2 refreshment (inlet open, system fans on) is always inefficient. Therefore, you need to make a concession between product quality and efficiency. What a waste! Fortunately, a CO2 extraction system can help you out.
An extraction system makes clever use of the fact that CO2 is heavier than air, and therefore always located near the floor. A piping system with a small extraction fan extracts air with a high CO2 concentration from the bottom of your store. Only small amounts of outside air are needed to replace the extracted air. The use of a CO2 extraction system has some great advantages:
- Reduced energy use for CO2 refreshment (only a small fan, instead of system fans)
- CO2 refreshment no longer affects the temperature and humidity in your store
- Less running hours of system fans leads to less dehydration, meaning: less weight loss
