Abstract:
1. A method for treating products, said method comprising: providing a climate chamber comprising a substantially closed compartment having two opposing lateral walls provided with at least one passage, and a substantially closed channel which extends around the outside of the compartment and connects one of said lateral walls to the other of said lateral walls in order to form together with the compartment a substantially closed circuit; placing the product in the climate chamber; and then circulating a conditioned gas stream through the circuit, wherein in the direction in which the conditioned gas stream is circulated through the circuit is reversed repeatedly, in each case once a reversing time interval has elapsed, wherein the gas stream passes through the compartment predominantly from one lateral wall to the other lateral wall, wherein the opposing lateral walls are configured as a perforated plate provided with a fluid pipe through which a fluid is conveyed, in such a way that each lateral wall forms a heat exchanger with which the temperature of the conditioned gas stream passing through said lateral wall can be influenced.
