Abrégé

An apparatus for controlling conditions in a plant cultivation facility is provided, said apparatus comprising at least: a lighting system arranged in connection with plants present in an environmentally sealable and closable cultivation facility; a hydropic cooling arrangement for lowering or impeding the rise of temperature in the cultivation facility, said cooling arrangement comprising a cooling manifold present in connection with plants in the cultivation facility and a heat recovery arrangement for utilizing excess heat generated in the cultivation facility, said heat recovery arrangement including a heat storing system. The apparatus has its heat recovery arrangement including one or more condenser dryers/coolers for collecting water and/or heat absorbed in the indoor air of a cultivation facility and a heat pump assembly for transferring the heat, accumulated in the heat storing system by way of the cooling arrangement's circulation water and/or the condenser dryer's/cooler's circulation water, into a secondary circuit independent, with respect to its one or more water circulation loops.

Classes IPC  ?

• A01G 9/24 - Dispositifs de chauffage, d'aération, de régulation de la température ou d'irrigation dans les serres, les châssis ou les installations similaires
• F21V 29/50 - Dispositions de refroidissement

Abrégé

A method and a system for growing plants on multilayer principle in mobile gutter farming is described, whereby, in the process of growing plants planted in cultivation gutters, said plants are conveyed in cultivation layers present on top of each other in a cultivation space in a longitudinal direction of the cultivation space in one or opposite directions. The cultivation gutters and the plants contained therein, are treated in the cultivation space by means of a processing arrangement in a cultivation layer-specific manner, whereby the cultivation gutters and the plants contained therein are first of all conveyed by motion elements in each cultivation layer of the cultivation space in the longitudinal direction of the cultivation space in opposite directions and are treated by processing elements in each cultivation layer of the cultivation space separately, in a manner substantially independent of the other cultivation layers.

Classes IPC  ?

• A01G 9/029 - Récipients pour plants
• A01G 9/02 - Récipients, p.ex. pots ou jardinières ; Verres pour la culture des fleurs

Abrégé

An apparatus for controlling conditions in a plant cultivation facility includes a lighting system arranged in connection with plants present in an environmentally sealable and closable cultivation facility; a hydronic cooling arrangement for lowering or impeding the rise of temperature in the cultivation facility, the cooling arrangement comprising a cooling manifold present in connection with plants in the cultivation facility and a heat recovery arrangement for utilizing excess heat generated in the cultivation facility. The heat recovery arrangement includes a heat storing system. The heat recovery arrangement includes one or more condenser dryers/coolers for collecting water and/or heat absorbed in the indoor air of a cultivation facility and a heat pump assembly for transferring the heat, accumulated in the heat storing system by way of the cooling arrangement's circulation water and/or the condenser dryer's/cooler's circulation water, into an independent secondary circuit.
