How can I workaround heroku's 30 sec timeout when executing long PLSQL procedure in Rails?

问题

In a rails web app I needed to develop a page where I can launch PLSQL procedures. I finally developed it by this tutorial:

How can I call a PLSQL function in rails, by clicking a button in a view?

But I have a huge problem. The procedures I want to launch can run for several hours. The web app is in Heroku, which has a timeout set to 30 seconds. How can I rewrite my code in order to bypass this 30 sec timeout, and run the extremely long PLSQL procedures?
