Integrated manufacturing of REciclable multi-material COmposites for the TRANSport sector
DEVICE AND METHOD FOR HANDLING, PACKAGING, STORING, TRANSPORTING, APPLYING AND RELEASING BIOLOGICAL PEST CONTROL AGENTS AND OTHER SUBSTANCES
The biological control of agricultural pests is growing rapidly due to the trend towards seeking healthier foodstuffs. The present invention is a response to this, and aims to optimize the biological control chain as a whole, from operations to breed, produce, handle and store organisms, to transport, release and setting free in the field, providing increased productivity. This reduces costs and increases efficiency in the sustainable management of pests, optimizing the quality and viability of the biological crop protection products, which include but are not limited to chemical powders, minerals, microbiological agents, insects in the form of eggs, pupae and adults, earthworms, animal feed, seeds or fruits. These substances require specific climatic conditions and their physical integrity must be maintained, minimizing stress and damage, from the time of production to release into the environment. When seeking improved operation of this system, the concept of the use of cartridges and refills was developed, with the possibility of reusing certain processes and components.
