Silos/Grain Storage

Irishkid

Hi All,

I am currently putting together a European Research project called:

Optimum management of postharvest storage silos via the on-line monitoring of the internal ambient parameters (SILO-SPHERES)

The proposed project will develop a wireless sensor network system that is easy to install, use and recover and that will be capable of taking periodic measurements of temperature and humidity from many locations inside the silo mass and transmitting this data from node to node and to a central location where the data can be processed and used to automatically control aeration and heating in the silo.

I am currently looking for any companies who store grain or manufacture silos to see if they are interested in participating. I would liek to add that the is NO financial contribution expected.

Many Thanks
