Plant Factory IoT Management

2021
Plant factory, characterized by artificially controlled operation, is internationally recognized as the most advanced stage of developments in protected agriculture. Covering biological systems management, engineering management, and IoT management, plant factories can produce the planned crop products all year long, with short growth cycles and little

Intelligent Medicinal Plant Factory

2019 Prognostics and System Health Management Conference (PHM-Paris), 2019
The development of medicinal plants has been annually increasing with a projected market of 1.11 billion USD in the future. The majority of medicinal plants in Taiwan relies on imports, which can be mixed in quality and contain various contaminants, such as pesticides, heavy metals and other pollutants, or sales of incorrect substitutes, as well as the

Transgenic plants as factories for biopharmaceuticals

Nature Biotechnology, 2000
Plants have considerable potential for the production of biopharmaceutical proteins and peptides because they are easily transformed and provide a cheap source of protein. Several biotechnology companies are now actively developing, field testing, and patenting plant expression systems, while clinical trials are proceeding on the first ...

Transgenic plants as protein factories

Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 2001
Transgenic plants are showing considerable potential for the economic production of proteins, with a few already being marketed. Recent clinical trials of pharmaceuticals produced from transgenic plants are encouraging, with plant glycans showing reassuringly poor immunogenicity. Our increasing understanding of protein targeting and accumulation should

Plants as Chemical Factories

2017
This chapter reviews plants as chemical factories. We obtain a vast array of chemicals such as flavours, fragrances, and drugs from plants that are products of their metabolism. Plant metabolism can be classified as primary or secondary. The products of primary metabolism are crucial for the life processes, while those of secondary metabolism mostly ...

Plant factories - closed plant production systems (CPPS).

2021
Abstract A plant factory is an indoor, enclosed, crop cultivation system where the growing environment is precisely controlled to maximise production. This control over all aspects of plant growth includes light, temperature, humidity, air movement, carbon dioxide (CO2) and nutrition.

Conducting a factory or plant visit

Australasian Journal of Dermatology, 1995
SUMMARYPlant visits are an invaluable tool in the management of work‐related skin disorders, as they are the means by which a dermatologist gains firsthand information about the circumstances under which a work‐related skin disorder has arisen in a plant or factory.

Plant factory and its prospects

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1991
Abstract Plant factory which produces vegetables in full artificial environment is expected as one of the production methods in agriculture even manufacturing industry especially in Japan. By reviewing a series of investigations we conducted, the significance of artificial environment control and the prospects of plant factory are discussed.

Microprecision Control for Plant Factories

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 2001
Abstrac Precision farming is the latest technology for managing crop production. The development of precision technologies to reduce the use of off-farm inputs, supported by the extensive application of infomlation and mechatronic technologies, including sensor fusion and intelligent control, has become a major issue in precision agriculture.
