Technology for the Purification of Fruit and Vegetable Processing Waters at Fruit Logistica 2024

VAM WaterTech stands out as one of the few Dutch companies present at the Potato Expo 2024 in Austin, Texas. For VAM WaterTech, this participation represents an excellent opportunity to continue offering the U.S. market a system that enables the reusability of water used in fruit and vegetable processing by an impressive 95%, ensuring comprehensive food safety. For over two decades, VAM WaterTech has been a leader in the development of water treatment plants for fruit and vegetable packers and processors. Currently, its global presence is marked by notable references in America and Canada.

Additionally, VAM WaterTech will once again participate in Fruit Logistica 2024, with its presence in Hall 4.1, Booth D12. In this space, it will exhibit its water purification system designed for potatoes, carrots, and other vegetables, eliminating the need for tanks and sludge generation.

Optimizing Water Use in Fresh Produce Processing

By integrating water purification modules into the washing facilities of fruit and vegetable packers and processors, savings of up to 95% in process water consumption can be achieved.

Given the significant amount of water demanded by this industry, this approach represents not only a substantial saving of drinking water but also a reduction in costs associated with water consumption, machine maintenance, and downtime.

The use of purified water not only minimizes wear and tear but also reduces the amount of contaminated water returned to the environment. Furthermore, the effective and economical removal of contaminated sludge and sand is simplified.

Safer Horticultural Products

As crucial as that, the water purification for fruits and vegetables ensures that packers and processors can eliminate up to 100% of pesticides, germs, and bacteria from their potatoes/carrots and other fruits and vegetables.

This not only results in a considerably healthier product for the consumer but also brings benefits to the shelf life by preventing cross-contamination.
