Abstract
The main goal of the present investigation was to study of using washing water turbidity to measure transparency of the water as a parameter that indicate vegetable and fruit washing efficiency. Turbidity can measure by turbidity measuring device to improve the quality of the process with low complexity. Laboratory tests of the operation have yielded satisfactory repeatability and stability. Washing productivity of the washing machine, washing efficiency of the washing machine, Analysis of Water (turbidity) and fruit damage percentage were resulted.
