Description
OZONE GENERA TOR, PROCEDURE AND APPARA TUS FOR THE STERILIZA TION
OF GRAIN CROPS DURING STORA GE
The invented solution is a procedure and apparatus suitable for the sterilization of grain crops while in storage, especially agricultural grain crops.
It is a well-know fact that the number of fungal infections of agricultural grain crops begins to increase immediately after harvest when the grain crops are put in storage. The extent and speed of fungal infections is influenced by a number of factors such as devices used to turn over the heaps, previous infections of storage facilities and silos, the moisture content and temperature of the grain crops put in storage and their infections brought in from the field. The extent of the fungal infection due to in-storage and handling circumstances can be so high that the grain crops put in storage become unsuitable for further processing or sale. Today's modern technologies prevent fungal infections and the spread of insect pests by sterilizing and treating the grain crops put in storage with different organic acids, chemical substances, heat treatment, poisonous gases or radiation.
The sterilization technologies described above are dealt with in chapter 2.11 of Dr. Tomay Tibor's "Gabonatarolas" /Grain Storage/ (Gabona Troszt, Budapest, 1987) titled "The Micro Flora of Cereals" as well as in chapter 6 titled "The Pests of Cereals and Pest Control", in the chapter titled "Preservation of Moist Corn Using Organic Acids" of Dr. Gyδri Zoltan and Dr. Gyδrine dr. Mile Irma's "A kukorica minδsege es feldolgozasa" /Quality and Processing of Corn/ (Szaktudas Kiadό Haz Rt., Budapest, 2002) and also in chapter XI.9. titled "Possibilities of Lowering the Degree of Infection and the Toxin Content of Infected Cereal" of Kovacs Ferenc's (editor) "Peneszgombak - mikrotoxinok a taplaleklancban /Mould Fungi - Micro Toxins in the Food Chain/ (MTA Agrartudomanyok Osztalya, Budapest, 2001).
The technologies described in the above literature all have in common the fact that, corresponding to the method in question, they introduce organic acids, poisonous chemical
substances, compounds, high heat, poisonous gases or hard radiation into the grain crops in storage aiming to reduce fungal infections, toxin levels present in the grain crops and to eradicate insect pests.
Based on practical experience methods employed to sterilize grain crops all lack the following:
The methods are costly: substances used for the sterilization and the devices used to introduce said substances into grain crops are expensive.
The effectiveness of the methods is limited: so far, none of the known sterilization procedures for grain crops have ensured 100% effectiveness. Concerning time, space or both, efficiency can be regard as relatively low.
The methods leave a residue of the substance utilised: the different known procedures without exception leave a residue of the substance employed in the grain crops to a larger or smaller extent, which damage the tissue lowering the inner content value and also limiting further use of the grain crops.
The methods are time-consuming: most of the known procedures require a considerable amount of time to carry out or the time that needs to elapse after the treatment under health regulations is quite long.
Based on recognition, the purpose of the invention is to eliminate the deficiencies described above, namely to create such an economical sterilization device for grain crops which is possible to operate at low costs with high efficiency, and after the utilization of which there is no residue. A device with which sterilization can be carried out in a short period of time and which does not pollute the environment.
The invention achieves the targets set above by utilizing an ozone generator which produces air with a purposefully determined ozone content and streaming the treated air through the grain crops to be sterilized with the appropriately variable speed. The treated air making use of the excellent sterilizing and oxidizing ability of ozone eradicates fungi, fungus spores, bacteria and viruses, and greatly reduces the level of toxins already present in grain crops and produced by fungi.
According to the set target, the procedure and the apparatus are to perform the following tasks:
The unit of the device generating the ozone (hereinafter called the ozone generator unit) must ensure the economical production of sufficient quantities of ozone that correspond to the amount of grain crops to be sterilized and to the amount of air streamed through the grain crops.
The unit of the device producing the ozone must produce ozone in such a way that completely eliminates any risk of fire or environmental pollution.
The insufflating ventilator of the apparatus must be capable of shifting enough air to sufficiently aerate the grain crops to be sterilized within a short period of time.
The device must be equipped with sensors suitable for the measurement of the amount of ozone produced by the device and the streaming speed of the moved air.
The appliance must be equipped with a suitable electronic control unit, which is capable of calculating the length of time necessary for the sterilization process and of accurately controlling the ozone generator and the insufflating ventilator of the appliance based on data provided by the sensors and the amount of grain crops to be sterilized.
The apparatus must be equipped with a communication device necessary for raising an alarm in case an event occurs during the operation of the device that definitely necessitates human intervention.
The procedure and apparatus must be suitable for use in traditional flat houses, flat houses with airing platforms and silos with airing platforms.
The invention carries out the tasks described above by placing the ozone generator unit past the insufflating ventilator in the same direction as the insufflated air flows. The ozone generator unit operates following the principle of alternating current auxiliary electrode cold arc discharge increased by limited arc discharge. This procedure does not result in a high- temperature arc discharge, thus the risk of fire is eliminated, and at the same time it is capable of producing an extremely large amount of ozone. The alternating current auxiliary electrode cold arc discharge increased by limited arc discharge occurs on two purpose-built electrode meshplates of the same size made of stainless steel. The mesh electrodes are placed parallel to each other and are separated by a glass plate of larger size. Between the mesh electrodes and the glass plate there is an appropriately sized airgap. The larger sized glass plate prevents the direct high-temperature arc discharge between the mesh electrodes from all directions. It places a unit blowing out air past the ozone generator unit. The sensors measuring ozone concentration and the speed of streamed air are placed in the unit blowing out air. A purpose-
built computer, to which the sensors measuring ozone concentration and the speed of streamed air are connected and which is equipped with a keyboard and a display monitor, is put in place to control the appliance. It puts electronic control units in place connected to the purpose-built computer which uses these units to control the ozone generator unit and the insufflating ventilator. A sysout communication device is connected to the purpose-built computer, which is capable of sending an alert through both a landline and a GSM telecommunication network if necessary. All units of the device are connected where earthing is concerned and the device is connected to an environmental earthing system. The apparatus, which is the object of the invention, may be connected to the plastic covering tents in flat houses without airing platforms, to airing platforms when constructing both flat houses and silos with airing platforms with the use of adapters connectable to the unit blowing out air.

Diagram 2. shows the theoretical placement of the ozone generator.
