Why are drying towers used in grain silo systems?

Reasons for using a drying tower in grain silo Nowadays, many  food processing plants  or owners of grain (corn, soybean, wheat, etc.) have a soft spot for  drying towers  when buying  grain silos . Because when they have a drying tower, they no longer have to worry about drying the grain. If the grain is not dried to a certain extent and stored in the grain silo, it will cause mold and deterioration of the grain and reduce its economic value. At the same time, it can realize modern grain collection and storage operations, realize the mechanization of the whole process of "planting-plant protection-harvest-drying-storage" of grain, and improve economic benefits for owners engaged in storage and processing. The use of the grain drying tower promotes the speed of agricultural production and processing, brings great convenience to people's production and life, and has a very good drying effect. Introduction of drying tower The drying tower is composed of a grain storage sect

The Features and Reasons of Popularity of Welded Steel Silos

Features of Welded Steel Silo: 1.Small Gas Consumption of the Homogenization and Discharge System Because the welded steel silo adopts the design concept of gas fluidization, gas homogenization, and gas outbound transportation integration, that is, the principle of one gas with multiple functions, it can save a lot of gas sources. Considering that the storage period of cement is longer and the bulk density increases, high-pressure air is used as the gas source. The comprehensive power consumption of gas homogenization, unloading, and transportation per ton of cement is about 0.3 degrees. If the cement is stored for too long, the power consumption will increase relatively. 2. Good Storage Effect Due to the good sealing performance of the welded steel silo, the stored cement, fly ash, sand, gravel, aggregate, etc. are in tight air isolation, and the materials are in a vacuum-sealed state, which ensures that the characteristics of the materials do not change. 3. Low Carbon and Environment

Why People Choose Galvanized Bolted Steel Silo to Store Corn

Why People Choose Galvanized Bolted Steel Silo to Store Corn Corn has become a staple food in many parts of the world, and the total production of corn exceeds that of wheat or rice. Corn is used for animal feed, various corn-based human food applications, and as a raw material for the chemical industry. Corn is also used to make ethanol and other biofuels. With the large-scale and mechanized production of related enterprises, the demand for corn has also increased. Therefore, we have higher requirements for its early transportation, cleaning and storage. If the corn is not stored properly, it will cause mildew and insects in the corn, which will not only cause serious economic losses, but also cause safety hazards if the moldy corn is used to make food. Therefore, it is more and more important to store corn correctly, rationally and scientifically. Corn Storage Conditions and Precautions         Under normal circumstances, corn storage requires a moisture content of less than 13%, tem

How are steel silos classified and what are their characteristics?

Image
In layman's terms, any cylindrical structure that stores bulk materials can be called a silo, and a silo made of steel plates is called a steel silo. The steel silo has the functions of accommodation, storage, loading and unloading, reversing, etc., and has the functions of balancing the production process, ensuring continuous production, saving manpower, and improving the degree of mechanization. Steel silo is a very advanced and popular storage equipment in modern times. Due to its various performances, its application range is continuously expanding in the industry. It is suitable for industrial fields such as coal, steel, mining, building materials, chemicals, and port environmental protection. Steel silos are roughly divided into three types:   bolted steel silos ,  spiral steel silos , and  welded steel silos . 1.Bolted Steel Silo  The bolted steel silo is a steel silo assembled by drilling steel plates in the factory and connecting them with high-strength bolts on site.
