[Use of impact machines to control the Mediterranean Flour Moth Ephestia kuehniella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) in flour and semolina]

Abstract: By using a double rotor system in impact machines for flour treatment the capacity can be increased from 7 t/h to 12 t/h and still showing 100% mortality of eggs from the Mediterranean Flour Moth Ephestia kuehniella.
By semolina treatment in impact machines the velocity of the bolts can be reduced to insure that the granulation of the treated product is not influenced to an unacceptable degree. A 100% kill of E. kuehniella eggs can be reached for a capacity of at least 12 t/h.
