Therefore, the Agricultural Standards Committee deems it necessary to establish an agricultural standard on Good Manufacturing Practices for Sulphur Dioxide Fumigation on Fresh Longans as a guideline for quality of the produce and meeting the maximum residue limit requirement. The standard is based on the information of the following documents: TAS Code of Practice: General Principles of Food Hygiene. National Bureau of Agricultural Commodity and Food Standards Department of Agriculture Certification System for the Plants of Agricultural Commodities in Postharvest and Processing Product Research and Development Bureau Department of Agriculture Production of Off season Longans for Export.

23 TAS APPENDIX B EXAMPLE OF THE USE OF SULPHUR IN FUMIGATION ON FRESH LONGANS B.1 Recommended amount of sulphur used in fumigation Dimension of the fumigation chamber (length x width x height) (m) Volume of the fumigation chamber (m 3 ) 3.6 x 2.4 x x 2.4 x x 3.6 x x 4.8 x Number of baskets (10 kg per basket) Amount of sulphur to be used (kg) Source: Production of Off season Longans for Export, Department of Agriculture (2008) Note: 1. This data is obtained from the study on the fumigation of longans of Edo species of which the sulphur dioxide residue on the fruit does not exceed 50 mg/kg. 2. The amount of sulphur used may vary 10% - 20% where appropriate 3. The requirements on sulphur dioxide residue specified in the relevant laws and regulations and/or requirements of the trading partner should be taken into account.
24 19 TAS B.2 Formula for calculation of the amount of sulphur to be used B.2.1 Calculation of basic dosage Calculation of the basic dosage depends on the desired maximum residue level (MRL) of sulphur dioxide (SO 2 ) which is subject to the storage, transport duration and the requirements of the trading partner. Some countries, for example, allow the maximum residue level of 350 mg/kg on the whole fruit basis. The other factor is the amount of the SO 2 remainied in the fumigation chamber after completion of the operation. The basic dosage is calculated by the following formula: Weight of SO 2 (g) = M+S Where = (W A) (C F D) M= MRL (Maximum residue level of SO 2 on the whole fruit basis after completion of the operation, in g) S= Space dosage (Concentration of SO 2 remained in the fumigation chamber after completion of the operation) W= Weight of fruit (Weight of longans to be fumigated, in kg) A= Absorption of fruit (SO 2 absorption of longans, in g/kg) C= Concentration of SO 2 to maintain (Concentration of SO 2 in the fumigation chamber after completion of the operation, in percentage) F= Free space in the room (Free space after reduction of the longan volume in the fumigation chamber in L) D= Density of SO 2 At the average room temperature of 25 C, D= g/l At the average room temperature of 27 C, D= g/l At the average room temperature of 30 C, D=2.575 g/l Weight of sulphur to be used = Weight of SO 2 (in g)/2 B.2.2 Ratio of the fumigation chamber and the weight of fruit To provide adequate space for the dispersion and distribution of sulphur dioxide, the recommended ratio of the fumigation chamber (in m 3 ) and weight of longans to be fumigated (in tonne) is from 10:1 to 15:1.
25 TAS B.2.3 Correction factor Correction factor is the increase of the amount of sulphur from 10% to 20% depending on the component of the fumigation chamber, absorption of the walls, absorption of the longan stalks, packaging materials, leakage of the gas through the holes and door of the fumigation chamber as well as the purity of the sulphur used. The correction factor can be obtained by conducting fumigation test and determine the maximum residue level of sulphur dioxide on the fruit after the fumigation is completed. B.2.4 Fumigation duration After the complete burning of sulphur to sulphur dioxide and the final concentration of sulphur dioxide in the fumigation chamber is 1.5% or 15,000 mg/kg or when the smoke becomes thin enough to see inside the fumigation chamber, the fumigation time shall be minutes to be considered as completed operation. The inside gas can be blown out to the gas recapture unit. The fumigation duration, however, depends on the concentration of sulphur dioxide and the sulphur dioxide residue.
