Industrial heat treatment TecHeat rids flour plant of
bugs, without chemicals
During a routine check of the planted pheromone traps, the
sanitation engineer of a pasta plant was concerned with the large
amounts of flour beetles that were captured. Knowing that if the
numbers on the traps were this great then surely the pests had also
infested the grain bins, storage tanks, sifters, motors and other
appliances, he immediately put a plan into action.
Industrial heat treatment
Aggreko was contacted and a new 1120kW heat
treatment unit was loaded up and delivered to the plant.
Our technician carefully set up the unit to the customer's
specification and within 24 hours was fully operational. From the
computer in the unit's air-conditioned control room, the technician
was able to comfortably monitor the temperature in the facility as
it rose to 130°F (54.4°C).
TecHeat
Twelve hours later, the TecHeat application was complete and the
sanitation engineer again surveyed the facility, this time very
pleased with what he saw - dead bugs everywhere and no chemical
residue.
