    摘要: A vacuum cooler for produce and the like includes a vacuum tube forming a vacuum chamber into which produce is placed. A vacuum pump lowers the atmospheric pressure while cold water is gently sprayed onto the produce. Water vapor from the produce is condensed, directed to a sump in the chamber without permitting such condensed water to impinge on the produce, and then directed through a water disinfecting chamber for reuse. The cooler includes a venting system that admits outside air into the vacuum chamber, gradually returning the chamber to atmospheric pressure, and permitting removal of produce from the chamber.

    摘要: Method and apparatus for vacuum cooling field harvested produce such as lettuce includes a vacuum chamber, a partial vacuum-forming mechanism in the chamber, a water discharging mechanism in the chamber for spraying water onto the produce to cool the produce, and a mechanism in the chamber for detecting and adjusting the temperature and pressure, dynamically, to minimize undesired removal of water from the surface and interstitial tissues of the produce.

    摘要: Solid materials, such as soils, containing contaminants are treated with hydroxyl radicals, in the gas phase. The hydroxyl radicals are created by hydrogen peroxide or ozone, preferably a combination of hydrogen peroxide, ozone and UV light. A decontamination unit for on-site use in the treatment of contaminated solid materials, such as contaminated soil is a totally enclosed closed-loop system.
