The Jupitair ethylene abatement solution

Jupitair Ethylene Abatement System Now Available in the UK from Puravent

The UK fresh produce industry faces increasing pressure to reduce food waste, maintain product quality, and improve sustainability across the cold chain. To help meet these challenges, the innovative JupitAir Ethylene Abatement System is now available in the UK through Puravent.

Jupitair ethylene abatement system

Designed specifically for food storage, ripening rooms, and cold chain applications, JupitAir introduces a new generation of ethylene abatement technology that removes airborne ethylene gas, mould spores, bacteria, and odours without filters, ozone, or chemicals.

Cold store for fresh produce

Why Ethylene Abatement Matters

Ethylene is a naturally occurring ripening gas released by fruit and vegetables during storage and transport. If left uncontrolled, excess ethylene can accelerate ripening, shorten shelf life, and increase waste throughout the supply chain. Effective ethylene abatement is essential for preserving produce quality and extending storage life in cold rooms, warehouses, and distribution centres.

Advanced Photocatalytic Technology

Unlike traditional ethylene scrubbers that rely on consumable filters or chemical media, JupitAir uses advanced photocatalytic oxidation technology. UV-A LED light activates a patented nanoceramic surface that decomposes ethylene gas and airborne contaminants into harmless compounds.

Key benefits include:

Filter-free operation
No ozone generation
Low energy consumption
Reduced maintenance requirements
Continuous air purification
Safe operation in food environments

Independent testing reports up to 98% ethylene reduction within 30 minutes and extremely high removal rates for mould spores and airborne pathogens.

Supporting UK Fresh Produce Operations

The launch of Jupitair in the UK gives growers, distributors, and cold storage operators access to an energy-efficient solution for improving storage conditions and reducing spoilage. Suitable for fruit storage, vegetable handling, ripening rooms, and food logistics facilities, the system supports both product quality and sustainability goals.

Fresh produce businesses looking to reduce waste and improve cold storage performance can now discover how through Puravent.

Heat Load	Watts	BTU
Average The Room Is A Normal Residential Room, Office, Reception Area Or Similar, Where There Is Not Overly Crowded With People, Computer And Office Equipment.
Above Average There Are Factors That Contribute To Additional Heat Being Generated In The Room E.G. Strong Lighting, Overcrowding With People And Office Equipment, Conservatory Type Room, Or Flat Roofed Room.
High There Are Factors That Contribute To A High Heat Load In The Room. E.G. Commercial Cooking, Much Computer And Server Equipment, Switchgear, Temporary Building With Thin Walls And Flat Room, Plain Glass Conservatory.

Variable	Units	Notes/Guidance
System Airflow	M3/Hr	If you have it in cfm then multiply your cfm value by 1.7 to get m3/hr
Average Combined Pressure Drop Of Filters Of Higher Than F6 Efficiency	Pascals	F8 bag filters pressure drop - typical clean clean to dirty, 160 - 250 Pascals F9 compact filters pressure drop - typical clean to dirty, 160 - 350 Pascals H10 HEPA filter pressure drop - typical clean to dirty, 250 - 600 Pascals 9.8 Pascals = 1 mm wg, & 249 Pascals = 1 inch wg
Carbon Filters Pressure Drop	Pascals	For compact type carbons pressure drop between 100 - 150 Pa Bonded carbon panels typically 150 - 170 Pa Loose granular carbon panels typically 130 Pa
Annual Operational Hours	Hrs/Annum	8760 hours in a year If operating for 5 days a week, excluding public holidays, for 12 hrs/day = 3000 hrs
Cost Of Power	Pence Per Kwh	Huge variance in what different companies pay. heck your last bill to be sure, otherwise put in 10p
Fan Efficiency	(As Decimal Value, Eg 100%=1)	Would typically be around 60%, so if you don’t have specific information use 0.6
Fan Motor Efficiency	(As Decimal Value, Eg 100%=1)	Larger motors should be around 90%, so if you don’t have specific information use 0.9
