IOA-PAG User Success Reports–Commercial Applications of Ozone in Agri-Foods

摘要

The IOA/PAG Agri-Food Task Force (the AFTF) has developed a format for reporting user success experiences with ozone in the Agri-^sFoods sector. Six User Success Reports (USRs) have been reviewed and approved by the AFTF, and these have been posted on the IOA web sites. Two additional draft USRs are under review, and two more are being drafted. Strikingly, one major benefit provided by ozone is a significant savings in costs to the user by replacement of other technologies that either cost more than ozone processes or that are more complicated or result in maintenance or product quality problems. Additional benefits include the expected extensions of shelf-life, reductions in spoilage, and improvements in product quality.
