For optimal dosing of CO₂ OCAP offers growers CO₂ Optimal, an accurate online dosing model. The model calculates with various variables that all influence the operating result. The type of crop, the weather conditions, the data from the climate computer, the prices of both product and CO₂ the dosing capacity and the available amount of OCAP CO₂ are the ingredients on the basis of which an optimal advice is calculated.
Not only is the production of the crop accurately calculated, the model also calculates the financial result. CO₂ Optimal is constantly being further developed. The latest version also calculates the optimum CO₂ for today and tomorrow. dosage. By taking over the optimal dosage for that day in the morning, you can immediately benefit from a larger yield. On some days, an optimal dosage can save hundreds of euros.
Measuring is knowing
CO₂ Optimal has automatic integrations with MyOCAP, LetsGrow, and meteorological services to retrieve the most up-to-date dosing, climate, and weather data. When determining the dosing recommendation, CO₂ Optimal considers all necessary operating characteristics for each connected company. For companies using artificial lighting, the next day's lighting is also predicted and incorporated into the recommendation. The system also considers the various CO₂ sources available to the grower, such as a boiler and combined heat and power (CHP). When calculating for the future, the dosage from the grower's own CO₂ sources can be manually adjusted. The system then calculates the corresponding optimal OCAP dosage. This allows for the comparison of different dosing strategies to make the best decision.
Science in practice
Not only is crop production accurately calculated, the model also calculates the financial result. CO₂ Optimal is constantly being developed. The latest version also calculates the optimal CO₂ dosage for today and tomorrow. By applying the optimal dosage for that day in the morning, you can immediately benefit from a higher yield. On some days, an optimal dosage can easily save hundreds of euros.
