  Controlled Atmosphere and Regular Atmosphere Storage of Apples and Potatoes
Controlled atmosphere storage is a system in which the apples are placed in a totally sealed room where the temperature, humidity, light, and composition of the atmosphere is regulated.
CA storage conditions have been known to cause problems in certain varieties of apples without the proper pre-storage treatment.
Another problem with CA storage occurs when carbon dioxide levels are maintained at a level that is too high for the fruit to safely respire (Figure 3).

 Scaffolds 7/12| Diseases
Invasion through stems does not occur in Empire fruit held in air storage, and the incidence of decayed fruit is CA storage is usually low until fruit have been stored for at least six months.
Storage odors can persist in packed fruit, so cleaning storage walls and floors may improve fruit quality at the same time that it reduces the inoculum for post harvest decays.
When fruit were removed from CA storage on July 15, the incidence of decay in the treated and untreated fruit was similar (about 200 decayed fruit/bin).

 Howstuffworks "How Holographic Memory Will Work"
Compact discs revolutionized data storage in the early 1980s, allowing multi-megabytes of data to be stored on a disc that has a diameter of a mere 12 centimeters and a thickness of about 1.2 millimeters.
In order to increase storage capabilities, scientists are now working on a new optical storage method, called holographic memory, that will go beneath the surface and use the volume of the recording medium for storage, instead of only the surface area.
In this article, you will learn how a holographic storage system might be built in the next three or four years, and what it will take to make a desktop version of such a high-density storage system.

Much of Behala's grain storage problems are attributed to the grain pricing policy which is set in Brussels and often results in urgently needed grain being sent directly to the market/buyer using the grain storage facility only for short periods if at all.
The pressurisation of the storages avoids problems with the "chimney effect" which occurs in leaky storages and the long exposure period ensures that all stages of the insects are killed.

 ReTain effects during storage of Empire apples
During the past 10 years, however, storage operators have noted increasing levels of decay in unwounded fruit, especially Empire fruit, that are held in long-term CA storage.
Apples were removed from CA storage during early July of 2000, and thenumber of decays was determined by hand-grading 1000 fruit from each of the 8-bin treatments.
Improved sanitation will be essential for minimizing losses during CA storage, for reducing the incidence of decayed fruit in consumer packages, and for preventing rapid development of fungicide resistant strains that would compromise any new fungicide that might be introduced.

Variable responses of fruit to storage may be related to effects of growing environment on diffusivity of the skin to CO2 and O2 and temperature sensitivity, an area that has received little attention.
Varieties also vary widely in susceptibility to storage disorders such as superficial scald, low temperature breakdown and senescent breakdown (Barden and Bramlage, 1994a,b; Barden and Greene, 1997; Wolk et al., 1998) and postharvest factors need to be taken in to account in selection of new varieties for North American apple industries.
Historically, research into the augmentation of storage atmospheres with CO2 dates to the 1930's when it was determined that doing so would retard softening and decay under conditions of poor temperature control (a commonly encountered problem at that time) (Brooks et al., 1936; Thornton, 1931).
