TH837A - Method for providing moisture to rice. - Google Patents

Abstract

The method of humidification of rice that continuously gives moisture to the milled rice and makes it absorbent by means of It is proportionally moist over time, with the moisture content not exceeding 0.3% by weight of processed rice in one hour.

Claims (8)

1. Method for rice moisture treatment which consists of the process of increasing the moisture content of the rice at the rate that the rice kernels absorb. The moisture content is gradual so that the moisture content of the seeds is gradually increased. And is continuous or almost Continuously at approximately 0.2 to 0.3% by weight of rice per hour until the desired moisture content is reached. 2. The method of humidification of rice as described in Clause 1, which also includes the part of its movement. The rice is continuously from the first position to the second position. Moisture is continuously added to the milled rice as it Was moved from the first position to the second position. 3. The method of moistening the rice as described in Clause 2, where the grain is moved from its position. The first to the second position falls under Earth's gravity. 4. The method of humidification of rice as described in Clause 3, where the fall of the grain is almost vertical. 5. The method of humidification of rice as described in Clause 3, where the fall of the grain descends along the zig-zag path. 6. Method for moistening rice as specified in Clause 2,3,4 or 5, where the grain is rotated. Continuously through the process of increasing the humidity until Even rice has a final moisture content of about 14 to 15%. 7.Methods described in Clause 1,2,3, or 4, where moisture is increased by passing moist air through the seeds. Rice in motion 8.Methods outlined in claim 7, where the humid air flow direction is periodically reversed (8 claims, 1 page, 6 photos).
