## Abstract
Abstract Post-harvest handling fruits and vegetables in Indonesia has not received enough attention. This can be seen from the post-harvest damage of 25-28%. ZECC (Zero Energy Cool Chamber) is one of the eco-friendly and low-cost post-harvest technologies that can be used to store fruit and vegetables. The aim of the study was, to know the quality of tomatoes stored in ZECC, cold temperature, and ambient temperature. Secondly, to determine time length storage of tomatoes using ZECC. Data processing used a quantitative descriptive method with three replicates. The chemical analysis result of tomato stored in ZECC was vitamin C content 39.95 mg / 100g, pH level 4.15, total acid 0.40, total soluble solids 5.4 0 Brix, weight loss 4.66 grams. The quality of tomatoes stored on ZECC is better than tomatoes stored in cold storage and ambient temperature. Tomatoes can be stored in ZECC for 20 days, cool temperature storage of 15 days, and storage of ambient temperature 10 days.
