<p>The apparatus for carrying out the process comprises a pre-drier of continuous or batch-type operation, further a series of aerable grain sections receiving the pre-dried grain, wherein the grain can be dried to an end-moisture enabling long-lasting time of storing. The drying space of pre-drier (3) can be increased by a cooling zone (5) at the same time supply and blowing off air channels (8, 7) can be enlarged by corresponding parts of them (6, 10), there is further an elevator (11) serving for uniform spread of the uncooled grain through support of a conveyer (12) within storage structure (13) having an air-permeable platform (14) in each of the sections A to E in succession; further, there is a sorption air drier (27) equipped with regenerator (28) to draw off moisture content of ambient air, flap-valve (29) regulating incoming air, air heater (20) equipped with burner (23), means-suitably a flap-valve (26) admitting ambient air, mounted in the channel section between air heater (20) and air drier (27), further a fan (16) blowing drying medium under platform (14), fitting, suitably a flap-valve (19) - admitting ambient air through opening (18) connected to suction channel section, finally the grain storage structure (13) has sections (A to E), this latter separated by partition walls (31) and can successively but separately apiece be brought into contact with the drying air stream in air channel (15) by means of lock plates (32).</p> |
