The new fumigant ozone offers an alternative to contact insecticides such as phosphine and methyl
bromide as a grain fumigant. This study was carried out to test the flow characteristics of ozone from
points of release to the available concentration of ozone to kill pests at other areas along the storage bin.
Amass transfermodel which predicts ozone concentration as a function of time was applied along with
continuity equation to simulate the ozone transfer in a storage bin. Ozone exchange rate based on grain
bed thickness was taken into account and evaluated using the correlation developed during the
experiment. The relative error between the experimental and predicted ozone concentration values
for the entire bin geometry was less than 25.7%. Overall, the general trends of measured ozone
concentration were compatible with the simulated ones.
