Ethylene generators work by adding ethanol (alcohol) with a concentration of over 95% to release ethylene, performing ripening in a sealed ripening chamber. The mixture of ethanol (alcohol) and a specific activator is dripped into a reaction tank heated to 300°C–400°C, where, under the action of a catalyst (such as activated alumina), the ethanol vapor is dehydrated and converted into ethylene gas, which is then released into the target environment.
