Reduction of ergot alkaloids in wheat

  • Customer: BIOWANZE

Date of completion:

July 2022

At the request of BIOWANZE, we recently carried out a project aimed at eliminating ergot alkaloids from wheat during the cleaning phase before milling.

Structural adaptations and floor adjustments have been made in the building, in order to facilitate cleaning and optimize the process in the factory.

Existing handling circuits have been modified to incorporate optical sorting machines to effectively remove ergot from wheat.

New handling equipment has been incorporated, such as chain conveyors, screw conveyors and belt elevators to facilitate the movement of wheat during cleaning.

In addition, for reasons of efficiency, the compressed air network has been specially adapted.

Finally, particular attention was paid to dust removal from process and handling equipment, with the installation of specific dust removal circuits.

Throughout this project, our team ensured compliance with ATEX standards.
