Steel Grain Silo Used For Food Storage And Transportation

Steel grain silo has a history of more than 100 years of development period, in the beginning it was original riveting type storehouse, now the prefabricated warehouse, welded and spiral coil steel silo. Steel silo is widely applied in many developed countries, the first application of grain storage of steel silo originated in the early 20th century. In the late 1970 s, steel silo almost replaced any type of barn for food industry in developed countries. Almost all America's granary uses steel silo at present. Application and development of steel silo design in food industry in China started late. In 1982, the low farm in Heilongjiang province from the United States imported galvanized corrugated sheet fabricated steel silo, it was one of the earliest domestic modernization steel group silos. In the 1990 s, China's steel silo construction has obtained the unprecedented development, so far, the steel silo (steel shallow circular silo, steel silo has been used widely: warehousing industry, entrepot storage and port library, flour processing, rice processing and feed processing industry, oil industry.
Steel plate silo for grain storage purposes shall be used following the tips below:
1. Steel plate grain silo can get affected by the outside temperature easily, do not save grain with high moisture, make good prevention for condensation and mildew.
2. Temperature and moisture monitor wiring for steel grain silo, and the temperature difference must be tested in autumn summer.
3, Clearance is essential in steel plate grain silo warehouse operation, etc, operator must have protective measures, someone must be watching over to prevent accidents.
4, Loading and unloading, in the prevention and treatment of high moisture food pressure part, the eccentric compression could cause collapse.
5, Regular brush anti-rust paint and paint maintenance measures, such as the prevention and treatment of the rivet (construction as far as possible avoid using rivet and steel plate with poor quality and are easy to embroider) and the integration of rust, leakage.
6. Causion for dust explosion (generally in the organic powder with heavy impurity and low moisture), risk of flour storage, feed powder blending silo is higher.
