What are the Uses of Silos?

Uses of Silos in Food Industry

In today's technology, materials such as cement, petrochemical materials, mining, medical supplies, pills, capsules, perfumery chemicals, ash, coal, soda, glass powder, marble powder, plastic, carbon black, wood shavings, granules, activated carbon, and ceramic powder are frequently used in various industrial fields and are quite suitable for pneumatic transmission and transportation. Grain silo products are frequently used in every field. In the food industry, the pneumatic transmission of powdery food products such as coffee, flour, milk powder, spices, salt, powdered sugar, starch, etc., is most effectively provided by grain silos. On average, since no dust or crumbs are spilled, the formation of bacteria and insects is also prevented. These products provide the most sensitive protection even in the most delicate situations.

Tower Type Concrete Silos

In agriculture, barley, wheat, and especially corn cultivation in our country are the greatest indicators of sensitivity in animal husbandry. Additionally, red lentils, green lentils, fava beans, peas, black-eyed peas, and soybeans are agricultural products from the legume family. Concrete is the most used material in construction, and bricks, tiles, stones, and sheet metal are also frequently used in products. Cylindrical grain silos made of sheet metal or wood are quite durable. In silos made with steel sheets, since the parts in contact with air and water wear out easily, it becomes necessary to coat the inner parts with a protective substance.
