Drying is one of the most important stages in post-harvest grain management. Reducing the moisture content to a level suitable for storage helps limit the risk of deterioration and preserve grain quality over time. At the same time, drying requires energy. When assessing a grain dryer, it is therefore not enough to consider only its […]
Understanding how to choose a grain dryer does not simply mean comparing the stated capacity in tonnes per hour. The correct sizing of a drying system depends on several factors: the type of product, initial and final moisture content, the quantity of grain to be processed, climatic conditions, the available fuel and the characteristics of [...]
Continuous flow grain dryers play a fundamental role in modern grain management and storage. After harvesting, excess moisture must be reduced in order to preserve product quality, improve storage stability and prepare the grain for subsequent processing stages. BONFANTI designs and manufactures BONFANTI grain drying systems in Italy, developing solutions for farms, grain storage centres, [...]
Cereal dryers are machines that utilize large volumes of air and heat to dry cereals for preservation. This process has become increasingly important due to rising costs of electricity and natural gas, which significantly affect management expenses. For this reason, improving dryer performance is increasingly important, as there is a need for greater energy recovery […]
During the heating phase there is a quick reduction in the external humidity of the seed (normally the external part of the maize, rich in starch, contains a higher percentage of water compared with the central part “embryo or germ”, rich in proteins), this phase causes an inversion of percentage of diluted water and of [...]
