Bubble Cleaning Machine

Bubble cleaning machines are devices that combine the physical action of bubbles with the scouring force of water flow to achieve efficient cleaning. They are widely used in food processing, catering, fruit and vegetable cleaning, and other industries.

Product Introduction

Here is a detailed introduction from five aspects: working principle, structural features, application scenarios, advantages, as well as operation and maintenance.

Working Principle:

The bubble cleaning machine achieves cleaning through the following three mechanisms:

1. Bubble Tumbling System

  1. An aeration pipe or microporous aeration disc is installed at the bottom of the equipment. A blower injects high-pressure air to generate a large number of fine bubbles (up to 2000 or more per second).
  2. As the bubbles rise, they create a vortex that makes materials continuously tumble in the water, stripping off surface attachments such as mud, pesticide residues and impurities.

2. Water Flow Washing System

  1. A circulating water pump generates a high-pressure vortex to enhance the rinsing force, which thoroughly removes dirt together with the bubbles.
  2. Some models are equipped with brush rollers to help eliminate stubborn stains such as fibrous debris and dirt on roots and stems.

3. Spraying and Filtration System

  1. A high-pressure spraying device is installed at the discharge end to perform secondary rinsing of materials and ensure thorough cleanliness.
  2. Mud and sand settle in the bottom isolation chamber, while floating impurities are discharged through an overflow channel, effectively preventing secondary contamination.

Structural Features:

1. Main Components

  1. Tank system: Made of 304 stainless steel with a thickness of 1.2–1.5 mm, it is corrosion-resistant and complies with food hygiene standards. The tank can be designed with an inclined structure or fitted with a conveyor belt for continuous operation.
  2. Power system: A vortex air pump of 2.2–3 kW generates high-pressure air, while a 0.75–1.5 kW circulating water pump maintains dynamic water flow. The conveyor belt adopts frequency conversion speed regulation with an adjustable speed of 1–10 m/min to adapt to different material residence times.
  3. Filtration device: Multi-layer filters trap impurities; some models are equipped with an automatic residue discharge system, reducing the frequency of manual cleaning.

2. Innovative Design

  1. Modular expansion: It can be fitted with brushes, rotating drums and drying modules to form a complete production line, such as washing → impurity removal → drying.
  2. Intelligent temperature control: An optional heating element can raise the water temperature to around 40 ℃, enhancing the degreasing effect, which is suitable for cleaning pickled products and similar materials.

 

Application Scenarios:

1. Fruit and Vegetable Cleaning

  1. Leafy vegetables (spinach, lettuce): Gentle bubble agitation with a breakage rate ≤3%.
  2. Root vegetables (carrots, potatoes): The brush module helps remove surface dirt and improves surface smoothness.
  3. Fruits (red dates, apples): Cleans impurities from surface crevices while preserving the original color.

2. Seafood Processing

  1. Shellfish (clams, razor clams): Bubbles simulate the natural sand-expelling environment, boosting efficiency up to five times.
  2. Fish: Removes surface mucus while keeping the flesh tender.

3. Special Material Cleaning

  1. Traditional Chinese medicinal herbs (goji berries, licorice): Removes impurities from folds while retaining active medicinal ingredients.
  2. Desalination of pickled products: Adopts circulating water rinsing, with salinity precisely controlled within ±0.5%.

Main Advantages:

1. High Efficiency and Superior Cleaning Performance

  1. Pesticide residue removal rate ≥ 90%, mud and sand impurity removal rate up to 99%. Its efficiency is three times higher than manual cleaning.
  2. Water recycling rate reaches 80%; water consumption per ton of materials is only 0.1–0.3 tons, achieving 80% water savings.

2. Low Damage Rate

  1. Gentle bubble cleaning ensures a breakage rate controlled within ≤3% for delicate materials such as strawberries, and ≤5% for root vegetables.

3. Energy Saving and Environmental Friendliness

  1. Energy consumption stands at 0.5–1.2 kWh per ton of raw materials, lower than traditional cleaning methods.
  2. Complies with export food hygiene standards and reduces the use of chemical cleaning agents.

4. Flexible Operation

  1. Adjustable conveyor belt speed adapts to the cleaning requirements of different materials.
  2. Modular design supports functional expansion, such as adding disinfection and drying modules.

 

Operation and Maintenance:

1. Operating Procedures

  1. Check the integrity of all equipment components, then open the water inlet valve until the water reaches the overflow level.
  2. Start the blower, circulating water pump and conveyor belt, then load the materials manually or by lifting equipment.
  3. Adjust the conveyor belt speed and circulating water pump pressure according to the material type to ensure thorough cleaning.
  4. After cleaning, rinse the materials with pressurized water and filter them before proceeding to the next process.

2. Maintenance Points

  1. Clean the filter regularly to prevent blockage by impurities.
  2. Inspect the aeration system to ensure bubbles evenly cover the bottom of the tank.
  3. Clean the inner tank wall to avoid dirt accumulation in corners and crevices.
  4. Lubricate the conveyor belt reducer regularly to extend its service life.

 

Purchase Recommendations:

1. Material and Specifications

  1. Priority should be given to a 304 stainless steel tank body with a thickness of no less than 1.2 mm, featuring strong corrosion resistance.
  2. Choose equipment length specifications (such as 4 meters or 6 meters) according to production capacity requirements, with an output ranging from 1 to 5 tons per hour.

2. Functional Configuration

  1. For cleaning delicate materials, select the model equipped with a brush module.
  2. For scenarios with high hygiene requirements, opt for models with an automatic residue discharge system and intelligent temperature control system.
