Abstract
This invention concerns a heat treatment device intended to be associated with an intermodal container (3) loaded with logs, comprising a pressurized water steam supply line (1). Said heat treatment device is particular in that it comprises at least one, preferably two, substantially rectilinear tube (2), provided with a plurality of openings distributed over its length and circumference, said at least one tube (2) being intended to be introduced from the rear into said intermodal container (3) loaded with logs, and to be supplied by said pressurized water steam. This invention also concerns a method that can be implemented by means of a device depending on the invention.
Claims9
A heat treatment device intended to be associated with an intermodal container (3) loaded with logs, the device comprising:
- a pressurized water steam supply line (1), having at least one, preferably two, tube (2), provided with a plurality of openings distributed over its length and circumference, said at least one tube (2) being intended to be introduced from the rear into said intermodal container (3) loaded with logs, and to be supplied by said pressurized water steam, wherein said at least one tube (2) being substantially rectilinear, in the sense that said at least tube (2) may have a certain elasticity that will cause the tube (2) to be slightly deformed.
A method for the thermal treatment of logs loaded in an intermodal container (3), the method comprising:
- opening of the intermodal container (3) from the rear;
- introduction of at least one tube (2), provided with a plurality of openings distributed over its length and circumference, so that it extends substantially over the entire length of the intermodal container, in particular over at least three quarters of its length, wherein said at least one tube (2) being substantially rectilinear, in the sense that said at least tube (2) may have a certain elasticity that will cause the tube (2) to be slightly deformed;
- connection of said tube (2) to a water steam supply line (1);
- and
- pressurization of the line (1).
