Synopsis

This book details a series of lab experiments on using an infrared gas heater to dry rough rice. Conducted by the US Department of Agriculture, the experiments aimed to determine how this drying method affects rice quality, especially the effects on milling yields and rice germination. The experiments found that drying rice with infrared radiation within the range acceptable for drying without damaging milling quality can kill immature rice weevils and lesser grain borers. They also noted that the amount of moisture lost during cooling or 'tempering' was found to equal or exceed that removed during irradiation. This loss is dependent on factors such as temperature, relative humidity, and the degree of exposure of the rice to the air.
