METHOD AND EQUIPMENT FOR STORAGE OF CARBON DIOXIDE ABSORBING PRODUCTS, ESPECIALLY PERISHABLE FOODSTUFFS

摘要

A method and an apparatus for packaging products susceptible of absorbing carbon dioxide, in particular perishable food products. The method comprises the step of inserting a product (1) in a containment package (2) and the step of sealing the package. Before sealing, a preset amount of solid-phase carbon dioxide (3) is introduced in the containment package. The sublimated carbon dioxide is then absorbed by the packaged product, avoiding collapse of the package.
