2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a method for treating pests of cereals, treatment using methyl bromide or an organophosphorus pesticide is known.
Methyl bromide is used worldwide because of its high toxicity and excellent penetration into foods. This methyl bromide has a pesticidal effect at a concentration of 3 ppm, is simple to spray directly on cereals in a processing chamber, and the operation is simple, and the number of processing days is about three days even in the case of large-scale processing. However, the use of methyl bromide is regulated as one of the gases that cause ozone depletion on the earth. On the other hand, organophosphorus pesticides have a problem that the residual concentration is high and the human body is adversely affected. Therefore, in recent years, those using carbon dioxide gas have been proposed as alternatives to these methyl bromide and organophosphorus pesticides.

In this insecticidal method using carbon dioxide gas, a method is employed in which grains are accommodated in a closed processing chamber and carbon dioxide gas is sealed therein. Is weak and requires a concentration of 40-50% or more, and it takes one week to 10 days to process.
In the meantime, it is necessary to always prepare manual labor for maintaining the gas concentration and observing the leak, and there has been a problem that the cost is increased. In addition, a method of treating carbon dioxide gas in a short time by filling it with a high pressure in a processing chamber has been proposed. In this case, since an ultra-high pressure of 25 atm is required,
The processing equipment itself is expensive and impractical. The present invention has been proposed in view of such a point, and an object of the present invention is to provide a method for fumigation treatment of cereals which can shorten the treatment period in the method for treating pests with carbon dioxide.

Using such experimental equipment, 100 kg of brown rice mixed with adult black elephants is stored in a silo (1) having an internal volume of 200 liters, and the processing gas supplied to the silo containing the brown rice is Pure carbon dioxide, carbon dioxide diluted with nitrogen gas to a carbon dioxide concentration of 60 vol%, pure nitrogen gas as a base, no ozone gas added to the base gas, and 100 pp ozone gas as the base gas
m, 150 ppm, 200 ppm, and 300 ppm, and the processing gas was supplied into the silo (1) at 10 liter / min to replace the gas in the silo (1) with the processing gas. Then, the ozone concentration in the silo (1) was supplied for 7 hours while maintaining the concentration of the supply processing gas. Thereafter, the gauge pressure was 1 kg / cm in the silo (1).
After sealing the silo (1) in 2 and leaving it to stand for 2 days, the survival of the silkworm was confirmed. Here, the treatment time was set to 7 hours in consideration of the working hours of the worker, and the leaving period was set to 2 days in order to match the total number of days to the treatment period with methyl bromide.

From the above results, an extermination effect can be expected with respect to adults and pupae only by carbon dioxide gas, but an extermination effect cannot be expected with respect to larvae and eggs only by carbon dioxide gas. However, mixing ozone gas with carbon dioxide is effective not only for adults and pupae but also for larvae and eggs. When the ozone concentration was lower than 150 ppm, no effect on larvae and eggs was observed. On the other hand, when the ozone concentration is 300
When the concentration exceeds ppm, problems such as an increase in gas cost and oxidative deterioration of brown rice occur. For comparison, in the case where brown rice from which adult adults were mixed and left to stand for 5 days and the adult was removed was stored in an untreated state, adults could be confirmed on the 46th day from the contamination with the adult insects.
