Use heated air for drying grain
Grain is rapidly dried to below 18% moisture content (15% for long-term storage)
Reduced Ochratoxin A production on cereal grains during storage
Reduced incidence of fusarium mycotoxins in food
Food safety - pathogens
Reduce energy used for drying grain
Reduce direct energy use
Reduction in fossil fuel use
Decrease consumption of non-renewable energy sources
Reduce carbon dioxide emissions from combustion
Reduce GHG emissions - carbon dioxide
Efficient use of resources - energy
