Silo Storage Solution
Silo Storage
Solution
Now a days various industries requires Silos for
storing any material or substance. Knitcon
manufactures or provides Silo storage based on
client requirements and usability. We have several
types of silos for various uses. Let's see some
information about Silos.
Storage Silos are structures designed to store
material. Basically, silos are used to store materials
like grain, hay, plastic resins, cement, activated
carbon, calcium oxide, calcium hydroxide, and other
material in bulk or power.
Most commonly used storage silos are cylindrical shaped.
Other than cylindrical silos, there are also square silos
and rectangle silos available. All are made of metal, i.e.,
metal silos. They are very similar to the building tower.
Silos are typically tall, with a narrow opening at the top
and a wider base. The material with which silos are built
can be metal, stainless steel, reinforced concrete, wood,
reinforced plastic, fiberglass, etc. Storage silos are used in
a variety of industries, including agriculture, mining, and
manufacturing, to store and protect materials from the
elements and keep them dry and fresh until they are
needed. Silos can also be used to store materials that are
hazardous or toxic, in which case they are designed with
additional safety features to prevent accidents or leaks.
Types of Storage Silos
Depending on the raw material to be stored, silos
and are classified into 3 types:
1.Tower silos
2.Bunker silos
3.Bag silos.
Tower Silos
Tower silos are the most commonly used structures. It can be
constructed or made of steel, wood, cement, and other materials.
A tower silo is a large, vertical structure used to store fermented
feed crops such as corn, hay, or straw (silage). It can range in size
from 4 to 48 meters in diameter and 3 to 40 meters in height,
approximately. It is commonly used in the farming industry to
store feed or livestock. It is designed to be airtight to keep the
silage fresh. The feed is typically placed into the silo using a
conveyor or by hand and can be removed by a feeding machine or
by hand as per requirement. Tower silos can be a systematic way
to store feed, as they take up less area than traditional ground
silos and can be easier to access.
Bunker Silos
Bunker silos are trenches, i.e., a bunker silo is a type of large,
rectangular, above ground storage structure that is used to hold
and store silage. It is typically made of concrete or another long-
lasting material. It is typically used on farms and other agricultural
settings. They are designed to be airtight and watertight to protect
the silage from the elements and keep it fresh for as long as
possible. The filled trench is covered with a plastic tarp to make it
airtight. These silos are mainly unloaded with a truck, loader, or
tractor. They are recommended when large quantities of material
must be stored and are used in agriculture and other types of
industries. In fact, nowadays, the military has also adopted the use
of this type of silo for the deposit and handling
Bag Silos
A bag silo is a type of storage container made of plastic and
hermetically sealed bags or tubes that are strong and durable. They
usually measure from 2 to 21 meters in diameter. The length varies
according to the material that is going to be stored. These storage
silos are used to hold and discharge dry, granular materials such as
grains, legumes, animal feed, and powdered metals. Bag silos are
typically used in industrial agriculture and commercial settings
where dry goods need to be stored and transported easily.
Bag silos are used to dispense and hold flowable, dry materials, i.e.,
fly ash, cement, lime, and plastics. If we take an industry example,
bag storage silos are commonly used in construction and
manufacturing applications because they provide a cost-effective
and convenient way to store and distribute dry materials. They can
be easily moved or transported to different working sites and are
relatively easy to install.
