Storage systems for potatoes

Potato storage. Drying wall

How the potato drying wall works:

In this storage system, air is blown through the hole in the boxes pallet and then through the product through the sides. At the end of the row, the pallet space is closed with air plugs. This makes it possible to quickly and efficiently dry and cool the product inside the container.

Conditions for efficient system operation:

• limited number of boxes in a row up to 10 – 12 pcs. (14 m);
• identical boxes with closed sides;
• robust pressure chamber design with air flow dividing system.

Advantages of a drying wall for storing potatoes:

• separate storage of products of different grades and fractions;
• adjustable air flow rate;
• effective drying and cooling of products;
• the need for less electricity due to the shorter running time of the fans.
