Recommendations for Safe Storage of Rice in a Silo

Image
What You Need to Know Before Storing Rice: Rice is one of the most difficult foods to preserve because the rice has lost the protective layer of its skin and its nutrients are directly exposed. Therefore, it is sensitive to the influence of external temperature, humidity, and gas components. It has strong hygroscopicity, high bacterial load, and rapid metabolism of nutrients. It is easily prone to problems such as aging, mildew, insect damage, and quality deterioration. Especially under high temperature and high humidity conditions in summer, the rate of aging and mildew of rice accelerates, causing the acidity of rice to increase, the viscosity to decrease, and the rice losing its edible value.   Storing Rice in Grain Silo Rice storage is an important link in the acquisition, transportation, processing, storage and sales of grain circulation. According to market demand, paddy is processed into rice, which is usually processed and sold at the same time. However, in some large and mediu

What Precautions Should be Taken While Storing Cement in Steel Silo

Image
Steel Silo to Store Cement Welded steel silos and spiral silos are common storage methods used to store bulk materials such as cement. When choosing a welded steel silo or a spiral silo to store cement, comprehensive considerations need to be made based on actual needs and environmental conditions. Below are the advantages of each. Welded steel silos  are suitable for places that require long-term, large-scale storage. The welded steel silo uses high-strength steel plates and is connected through a welding process, which has excellent resistance to pressure, wind and earthquakes. This structure ensures the stability and durability of the silo body, and can maintain its performance for a long time even under harsh environmental conditions. The welded structure is stable, can withstand greater pressure and weight, and has a long service life.   Spiral silo  is suitable for places that have strict construction cycle requirements, rapid installation, and high volume utilization. Spiral sil

Everything You Need To Know About Flour Silos

Flour Silo Introduction Flour silo is a device used to store bulk grain products such as flour. It is mainly composed of a silo body, a feed port, a discharge port, an inspection port, an exhaust port, temperature measurement, material level measurement components, explosion-proof components, etc.   Flour silo   has the functions of moisture-proof, insect-proof, dust-proof, ventilation and heat preservation, etc., and can effectively store flour or other bulk grain powder products. The material selection of flour silos is generally made of corrosion-resistant materials such as food-grade anti-corrosion treated carbon steel plates, galvanized plates, stainless steel plates, etc. to ensure the durability and hygiene of the silo. Flour silos are usually installed on flour processing production lines, which can realize automated storage and transportation, improving production efficiency and product quality.   Flour Silo Workflow The working principle of  bulk flour silos  can be simply su

How to Properly Store Wheat with Grain Silo

Image
Introduction to Wheat Wheat is an important cereal crop that is widely grown around the world and is one of the main food sources for humans. Wheat ground into flour can be used to make staple food products such as steamed buns and noodles, as well as various snacks such as biscuits and bread. Flour products play an important economic role in food processing and food consumption. Food processing and producing manufacturers need to store large amounts of wheat to maintain daily production needs and respond to fluctuations in market demand, ensuring a stable supply in the event of seasonal and regional supply shortages.  Steel silos  are a common facility for storing wheat. Using steel silos to store wheat can better protect the quality of wheat and effectively manage large-scale wheat reserves to meet market demand and supply chain stability requirements.   Introduction to Wheat Silo Wheat silos   are often used to store wheat and maintain its quality during long-term storage.

  Cement Silo Introduction Cement steel silo is a facility used to store and protect cement. It is corrosion-resistant, wear-resistant, waterproof and moisture-proof.  Cement silos  are usually made of high-strength steel plates. These steel plates can be customized as needed to adapt to different sites and storage needs. They are widely used in  cement plants , construction sites, concrete mixing stations and other places for temporary or long-term storage of cement.   Before Building a Cement Storage Silo, There are Several Key Factors that Should be Considered: Capacity Planning:  Estimate cement storage capacity based on demand and select appropriate storage silo capacity. Taking into account the possibility of future capacity expansion, ensure that the storage silo has certain storage flexibility. Structural Design:  Design the structure of the storage silo, including the silo body, silo roof and foundation. Taking into account the weight and stability requirements of the cement,
