  • Patent number: 12702125
    Abstract: A fumigant vaporising and delivery apparatus for vaporising one or more constituents of a fumigant, the apparatus including: a fluid supply; a pump connected to the fluid supply for drawing fluid at an ambient temperature therefrom; a heater operably connectable to a portable energy source, the heater connected to the pump for receiving and heating a flow of incoming fluid from the pump; a heat exchanger connected to and downstream from the heater adapted to receive an inflow of fluid at an elevated temperature from the heater, the heat exchanger having: a fluid pathway for fluid flow between the heater and the fluid supply; and a fumigant pathway separate from the fluid pathway, extending between an inlet and an outlet in the heat exchanger for flow of a liquid fumigant therebetween; wherein the liquid fumigant vaporises as it flows within the fumigant pathway between the inlet and the outlet with exposure to heat from the fluid pathway, and spent fluid is received by the fluid supply for substantially conti

  • Publication number: 20240390866
    Abstract: An onsite system for generating a fumigant for use with foodstuffs comprising: an active fumigant vaporizing station comprising: a first water heater; a heat exchanger connectable to the first water heater to receive heated water therefrom, the heat exchanger being configured to receive, heat and vaporise active liquid fumigant entering into the heat exchanger via a fumigant inlet; and a fumigant outlet connected to the plate heat exchanger for delivering a stream of vaporised fumigant; a liquid diluent vaporizing station comprising: a second water heater; a shell and tube heat exchanger connectable to the second water heater to receive heated water therefrom, the shell and tube heat exchanger being configured to receive, heat and vaporise the liquid diluent entering into the shell and tube heat exchanger via a mixing liquid inlet; and a mixing liquid outlet connected to the shell and tube heat exchanger for delivering the vaporised diluent; and a mixing unit configured to receive and mix the vaporised fumiga
