Specialized components help to avoid the process of grinding into silo
The types of silos commonly used today are capable of storing and managing granular or powdered materials in large quantities. With many advantages compared to conventional warehouses such as saving land charge, increasing capacity, maintaining material quality and minimizing loss.
Size of warehouse silo
- The size of the silo silo could be different depending on the need to use and the type of material contained. Some information about the size of silos that I found is:
- Warehouse silo has a height usually from 30-35m.
- The silo warehouse has a large capacity, which can hold more than 1000 tons of solids or 1000 m3 of liquids.
- The silo warehouse has a body diameter that can be from 2.5m to 10m or more.
- The silo warehouse has a resistant bottom diameter that can be from 200mm to 500mm or more.
Basic steps of the silo storage method
Silo storage is one of the effective solutions for storing and preserving agricultural products, food or raw materials in bulk. The method of preservation by silo storage includes the following basic steps:
- The first note when entering the silo warehouse is to ensure that the raw materials received meet the prescribed standards, are treated with moisture and are free from pests, by means of preliminary processing equipment such as cleaning systems, drying and sorting.
- It is necessary to equip conveyor systems, buckets when entering the warehouse to load and unload materials from outside or from other workshops to the silo. Level sensors can be used to control the amount of material in the silo.
- Equipped with equipment for testing and handling materials such as hygrometers, thermometers during storage. Or the air duct system is attached with a high-pressure fan to blow air into the material.
- When leaving the warehouse, the system automatically transfers raw materials and grains from the silo to automatic weighing, checkweighing and bagging. A drain valve can be used to control the amount of material leaving the silo.
