When it comes to the system ofnatural ventilation and automation, in general we think of industrial applications that are currently one of the biggest beneficiaries of such technological solutions.
However, it is worth remembering that much of the industrial sector and even the services sector are supplied by another sector, theagricultural.
From this perspective, it is possible that theagribusiness can also benefit from technologyas much as or even more than other sectors.
Precisely because of the importance ofmaintain and manipulate raw materialwith the best possible quality and efficiency, from the beginning of the production chain in the field.
Another point that deserves to be highlighted is the expansion of agribusiness (especiallyincrease in grain production) which generates incentives for improvements in quality and storage volume.
Therefore, greater demand formodern equipment e efficient,as systems ofnatural ventilation e indoor lighting controlwhich we will see later.
Where agribusiness is headed
With so many incentives for improvements in agribusiness, the market trend isuse increasingly energy-efficient systems,with a low demand for maintenance. This will help to avoid further product costs, thus ensuring good business competitiveness.
In the case of agribusiness, the use of refrigeration systems for food preservation is very important.
When looking for low energy expenditure, theMB Groupoffers a great alternative with anatural ventilationelighting automationin grain silos or warehouses, for example.
In addition to understanding the movement of agribusiness towardssearch for technology, it is also important to keep in mind the main needs of the sector and the benefits of applying such improvements.
Application of technologies in agribusiness
Before thinking about the application, it is important to define two important points: thelockdown, which configures care with the way the product is stored and theair conditioning,which pays attention to controlling humidity and temperature inside the confinement.
Therefore, some application aspects can be more detailed. Look.
Temperature control (natural ventilation system)
Controlling the internal temperature of the confinement is a point of attention as it is directly linked to expenses with air conditioning and forced ventilation in general, mainly because it is so important in thegrain conservation.
A air renewal through natural ventilationIt is the most sustainable option from an energy and financial investment point of view.
The installation oflanterns e shuttersWell-sized and maximizing the use of natural ventilation, they provide an excellent air renewal rate and also reduce additional expenses with air conditioning systems.
Control of humidity and condensation (natural ventilation)
Environmental conditions such as the difference between internal and external temperatures or air humidity can generate condensation on the inside of the confinement, accumulating water and creating drips, which cannot occur in thestorageof many agribusiness items.
Onenatural ventilation systemwith a rate ofair renewalsuitable for the dimensions of the factory can avoid this situation with great efficiency. Contributing to the conservation of stored products and the maintenance of the seed germination rate, as well as its vigor.
Watertightness
A very important point in agribusiness is the tightness of confinements, that is, isolation from the external environment, especially theprevent the possible entry of water and dust. This characteristic can be obtained usinglanterns.
The fact is that because there are openings for air circulation in these elements, it can lead someone to think: "What about when it rains? Will water enter through the louver inside my silo?"
Thanks to the system ofdrainage and internal coverage, the lanterns are entirely watertight, that is, they do not allow water to pass from the outside to the inside.
Furthermore,work as exhaust fans, which allows good air quality in the indoor environment.
Confinement natural lighting system (automation)
In addition to applying natural ventilation to your storage system with all its benefits, you can also add solutions based onnatural lighting, including several advantages.
O MB Smartis a new technology created by Grupo MB that offers more savings, resource optimization and integration with other lighting solutions, which includesnatural lighting and LED.
This system basically consists of a lighting manager, where it is possible to automatically control intensity levels by sector, settings according to work shifts, as well as integrating different lighting solutions, such as natural lighting and LED.
In addition toenergy savings and securityWith good lighting in storage confinements in agribusiness, there is also help in controlling pests that could affect the quality of the stored product.
How to bring these advantages to your agribusiness
It is very important that storage systems accommodate products appropriately with the correct temperature, air circulation and control, moisture content, protection against external factors and good internal lighting in the confinement.
To properly meet these requirements, the MB Group can offer the following solutions:lanterns, industrial shuttersand theMB Smartso that business demands are better met according to customer needs.
