How it works

Sense

Process sensors and controllers capture compost and air conditions, elapsed phase state, fan operation and supported batch measurements.

Connect

Installed process sensors and aeration equipment connect to the Lumina 751 fermentation controller; confirm remote-management options for the installation.

Analyze

The climate computer evaluates measurements against configured fermentation recipes, targets and process stages and trends batch progress.

Act

The controller regulates aeration and related climate equipment while operators inspect exceptions and advance or adjust the batch.

About Fancom Mushroom Compost Phase-One Fermentation Climate Control

Fancom Lumina 751 controls climate during phase-one mushroom-compost fermentation. Its control logic uses elapsed time, compost temperature and oxygen concentration to regulate aeration in fermentation bunkers.

Proven in the field

Business case

Fancom Lumina 751 automates phase-1 compost fermentation at Coenegrachts Substraat

ScaleSix indoor phase-1 fermentation bunkers producing about 4,000 tonnes of phase-1 compost per week; overall site output about 1,800 tonnes of phase-III (finished) compost per weekOutcome~4,000 t/week phase-1 compost across 6 bunkersReported byFancom
