    摘要: A drying system (100) for agricultural produce (5) is disclosed, comprising heat emitting sources (3), placed over a continuous moving grain bed with uniform thickness and with a consistent PEG, so that the heat imparted are uniform over the agricultural produce (5) at any given passage point. The system (100) comprises conveyor belts (9), having passes (10) and each pass (10) is adapted to transit the agricultural produce. Heat emitting sources (3) are placed above each pass (10) of the conveyor belt (9), and the heat emitting source (3) is adapted to radiate heat onto the agricultural produce. The heat emitting sources (3) are strategically placed at uniform height over a flowing bed of agricultural produce (5) with controlled thickness to have a preset Produce to Emitter Gap (PEG), and are charged in controlled way to emit pre-determined intensity of radiation or pre-determined temperature setting to be imparted on the agricultural produce (5).

    摘要: A bean roaster with controllable fluid loft and electrostatic collector is provided. An example system reduces large industrial features into a smaller roaster, without sacrificing roast flavor. A user can select custom airflow parameters to establish a bean loft mode and fluid loft pattern for a particular roast. Airflow parameters, including air volume and pressure may be user-selected along a continuum. Selected airflow interacts with a cyclonic diffuser to create airflow streams in the roast hopper, which in turn interact with the geometry of the roast hopper itself and the beans, including their size, mass, number, and streamline properties, to create a fluid loft pattern, such as helical pattern or spray pattern. An electrostatic collector applies static charge to chaff and smoke particulates enabling these to be secured within a small machine footprint. The condensed features provide a bean roaster that can use ordinary electrical hookup and common residential venting.

    摘要: A device for thermally treating a pourable plant product includes a receiving device configured to receive the pourable plant product and a gas supply channel configured to supply a heated gas to the receiving device. The gas supply channel is divided directly upstream of the receiving device, in a gas flow direction, into a first gas supply sub-channel and a second gas supply sub-channel which follow each other in a direction of gravity, and which are configured to supply the heated gas to the receiving device. A cross section of at least the first gas supply sub-channel is configured to be closed or reduced before the receiving device independently of the second gas supply sub-section so as to eliminate or reduce a volume of the heated gas to the receiving device via the first gas supply sub-channel.
