Trioxygen or Plasma-activated water (PAW) or Plasma-activated mist (PAM) is even a more effective, eco-friendly, non-thermal technology. It can help to significantly extend the shelf life and freshness by 30-50% of meats, seafoods  salad greens, lettuce, and other fresh produce. It works by exposing water to trioxygen or cold plasma, creating a liquid rich in reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) that kill bacteria and inhibit enzymes responsible for browning and wilting.

Trioxygen and Plasma-Activated ICE is a highly effective, natural method for extending seafood shelf-life by 35–50% or more by releasing dissolved ozone as it melts, which kills bacteria like Listeria and E. coli.

 It eliminates odors, maintains superior product appearance, and is widely used on fishing vessels, market-displays and storages  and in processing for extended antimicrobial protection. Both process is completely odorless and free of chemical residues.

    Plus Advantages of PAW Technology:    

• PAW can be produced on-site, eliminating the need of storage.
•     Less hazardous than pure trioxygen, which can cause respiratory problems and other health issues if mishandled.

•    Proven  effectiveness against a wider range of pathogens, including viruses and spores, compared to trioxygen.

•      Contains not only oxygen and trioxygen molecules but also other ROS, such as hydrogen peroxide, hydroxyl radicals, superoxide anion, and singlet oxygen, (all these are strong oxidizers that can rapidly decompose inorganic and organic compounds).

Cold plasma treatment generates plasma-activated water (PAW) with unique chemical properties, including reactive oxygen species and nitrogen species. PAW exhibits high effectiveness against various pathogens, surpassing the capabilities of trioxygen alone. Plasma-activated water generated by cold plasma treatment exhibits a different chemical composition than trioxygen enriched water, including reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitrogen species (RNS), making it highly effective in microbial disinfection and water treatment.

Both Trioxygen and PAW fog is also produced on-site and it has a higher efficacy than trioxygen fogging. It has effectiveness against a wider range of pathogens, including viruses and spores, exceeding  the capabilities of trioxygen.
