✦ Synopsis


Abstract

These are the second and third series of experiments designed to provide safe and efficient fumigation of dried fruit with methyl bromide. Loss due to leakage and absorption in the fabric of the chamber is reduced if bituminous felt sides arc replaced by brick walls surfaced with fine sand and cement and a waterproofing agent. Distribution is uniform with close stacking when an efficient method of circulation is used. With forced circulation air‐tightness of the chamber is essential. Under the conditions described, one hour's airing is sufficient to permit unloading.
