  • Publication number: 20230158181
    Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods for treating agricultural particulates, such as buds, Cannabis buds, herbs, leaves, and the like, with a treatment agent, such as steam, as the agricultural products move forward along a pathway created by a conveyer, in a chamber, enclosed by an aligned ceiling and floor, and oppositely disposed lateral walls. The exposure times to the steam, created by the intervals and lengths in which steam enters the chamber results in the elimination (destruction) and/or neutralization of the pathogens on the agricultural particulates, while the agricultural particulates remain undamaged and active.

  • Patent number: 9532562
    Abstract: An insect blowing and suction system including at least two tangential blowers, each creating an air stream at a suitable angle relative to the ground but in opposite directions to each other. The two air streams combine and are diverted upward, thereby lifting insects upward. The upward air velocity is increased by at least one upper axial blower that sucks the air from the housing.
