Fruit ‘breathes’: it uses oxygen (O2 ) and produces carbon dioxide (CO2 ). A CO2 adsorber removes the carbon dioxide (also referred to as carbonic acid) that forms from your storage cells in order to prevent concentrations getting too high and causing damage to your fruit.
In order to determine which CO2 adsorber is suitable for your situation, the following must be considered;
Van Amerongen supplies a broad range of CO2-scrubbers with capacities of 50 to 900 kg per 24 hour period (at 3% CO2)

The adsorber operates using a unique system of sieves and distribution plates, enhancing efficiency by up to 30%. It features a single-tank design, which is more cost-effective, energy-efficient, and faster compared to traditional two-tank systems. Additionally, the VA long (buffer) system minimizes oxygen intake during CO₂ removal, further protecting the stored fruit.
