Bulk Storage
Bulk Storage
Silos are containers used to store bulk stocks, serving both short-term and long-term storage needs for food products. Short-term grain storage silos feature a conical base, while long-term storage silos have a flat base with a cleaning screw for easy removal. Industries and farmers benefit from storing bulk in silos, ensuring consistent grain quality, enhanced food security, and reduced waste, resulting in increased farm financial returns. Our storage silo solutions are designed to be highly efficient and effective, keeping your grains safe from rain and pests.
Vertical Silos
Vertical silos come in circular or orthogonal shapes. Equipped with adjustable diverging funnel grooves at the bottom, allowing it to handle various types of loads. Stainless steel plates, concrete, and carbon steel are commonly used materials for manufacturing vertical silos. Your choice of material should be based on the weather conditions in your area.
Application:
- Ideal for storing granular or powdered materials, both as raw materials in a production process or as part of a finished product.
- Suitable for storing sticky materials with a high moisture content.
- Perfect for storing abrasive materials like clinker in the cement industry or broken glass in the glass industry.
Horizontal Silos
Horizontal silos, while requiring more ground space, are equipped with a convenient mechanical extraction system placed below the silo to facilitate easy removal of stored materials. Typically, horizontal silos are strategically positioned away from direct heat sources for optimal functionality.
Application:
- Suitable for low-altitude storage situations.
- Ideal for storing sticky materials with high moisture content.
- Designed for storing various fuel materials, including USW municipal solid waste, WDF waste-derived fuels, CAS Biomass, tires, etc.
Conclusion
The optimal storage silo for your needs depends on the available installation area. Consider your short-term and long-term goals, and external factors that may influence your storage requirements before investing in a silo. Additionally, explore the range of specialized silos available to suit your specific requirements..
