2018 Exhibition: IAOM MEA, Nairobi
Mr Peer Hansen was invited for the 3rd time to the IAOM exhibition in Nairobi, Kenya to make a presentation about CO2 infestation detection. It is concluded that CO2 can provide the earliest possible detection of unwanted biologic activity, and it is further concluded, that whereas temperature may only give a quantitative indication in very severe cases CO2 may from the beginning be interpreted quantitatively.
Because CO2 detection quantifies the infestation much better and much faster it is also a much better tool to use operationally to minimize spoilage. Early detection obviously provides the opportunity to use the wheat in the process of becoming infested before it becomes too serious.
