PAGE 12 â€" WATERLOO CHRONICLE, WEDNESDAY APRIL 6, 1938 lan Kirkby Chronicle Staff A Waterloo company is winning recognition in North America and Asia for its product which could eventually help address the world food shortage. Canadian Farm Tec Systems, a division of Dantec manufactures the "Dryer Master", a computerized grain drying control system. 2 & a e eepoeecn i T mastnarw & Sb ue on itc a 2. The system, developed over six years in partnerâ€" ship with University of Waterloo researcher Dr. Gerry Sullivan, is installed in grain elevators. It measures the moisture content of grain entering and leaving the elevator and adjusts the speed of Farm Tec president Gerald Dubrick sits at a computer which can control the drying of grains across North America. The comâ€" pany hopes to break into the Asian market where grain spoilage is a major problem. lan Kirkby photo Product made here could help address world food shortage RICHARD J.

For reasons of perishability and international trade corn grains, for instance, must have a moisture content of 15.5 per cent as they exit the system. C The computer adjusts the speed of passage of moisture grains, achieving a .5 per cent variance from the ideal, a vast improvement over previous manual systems, said President Gerald Dubrick. Energy costs for the drying process have been markedly reduced, he added. The company initially developed the system for Ontario grain corn. "Ontario had a bad reputation for putting out a second class product," said Dubrick. i A recent Ontario Ministry of Energy evaluation of the results of installing Dryer Master‘s in provinâ€" cial corn elevators concluded that energy consumpâ€" tion was reduced and grain quality was improved. The company has since developed the technology for corn and soya drying and has recently finished testing a more sophisticated system for drying rice.

Currently, about 175 units are in operation in Ontario, and 300 to 320 in the U.S. Argentina has also been a focus for the company, and last fall Dantec entered into a joint venture with a French company to market the device in the European Community. SUCC CB O Dubrick received a letter Monday asking him to ship a Dryer Master to the Manchuria area of China by May for testing in a rice elevator. "I went to China expecting it to be five years before we could enter that market," he said, holding the translation The potential for the system is such that researchâ€" ers from Michigan to France to Brazil have tried to duplicate Farm Tec‘s results, so far without success.
