Abstract

When using electro-ionizers in the conditions of the fruit storage facilities, it is necessary to take into account the influence of environmental conditions of the electrical ionizers. A particularly important factor here is the relative humidity of the air in the storage tanks. At higher values of the relative humidity of air in the atmosphere of the fruit storage, air ion combine with water molecules to form heavy ions, as a result of which the volume concentration of ions decreases. To test these theoretical assumptions, we conducted studies of the operating parameters of the ionizer under condition of storage tanks high relative air humidity. Studies have shown that under conditions of high air humidity the concentration of ion decreases by 10–12% and at a distance of 1 meter from the ionizer, the air ion concentration is 1,6∙1013 ion/m3.
