'''Treatment Silos''' are used in chemical treatment processing industries. Qualitative and quantitative loss due to the infestation of stored grain in concrete or steel bins and silos occurs due to a number of reasons such as moisture content of grain/product, temperature, relative humidity, level of sanitation and hygiene etc. One of the reasons for this loss or contamination is the residual insect population in empty bins and silos before grain or product is transferred into it. Insect heat treatment is a safe and viable solution. | |||
==Maintenance== | |||
*Treat metal or concrete bins/silos in shorter times (4 to maximum 12 hours). | |||
*No retrofitting or structural changes to the bins/silos. | |||
*Heat is non-toxic, non-residual and non-corrosive. | |||
*Heat-treat bins in a plant in rotation when they become empty using a portable heater. | |||
*On-farm bins can be heat-treated before loading harvested grain. | |||
*No pesticide applicator’s license required, allowing for a heat-it-yourself approach. | |||
*Great fit for organic storage structures and processing plants. | |||
