Heat Insulation Measures on Silo

At present, in order to implement related policies of energy saving, environmental protection, energy utilization efficiency, our construction industry has built external walls for insulation works. Now silos that have been built should be improved on walls in accordance with the heat insulation; meanwhile, the new grain silo must implement heat insulation measures.

The measures for heat insulation on steel silo are: Construct insulation works on the inner and outer surface. The outer surface and an inner surface of the insulation engineering collectively ensure internal and external insulation works. Wall surface insulation works created in Europe has a history of over 35 years, and the most used system is thin plaster EPS board insulation. In the mid-1980s, China external wall insulation has been a pilot project. The first project is the EPS board for thin plaster exterior insulation system. Because external wall insulation in building energy efficiency and indoor environmental has many merits, and now urban and rural housing construction has made external insulation as a key project.

Insulation system of wall surface is a system which consists of insulating layer, protective layer and fixing materials.

External wall insulation works can form building through a process of combination of external wall insulation systems, assembly and construction. Construction on storage silo now currently use EPS thin plaster external wall insulation system consisting of EPS board insulation layer, a thin layer of plaster and paint finishes layer; EPS plate fixes with adhesive on the base, thin plaster layer is covered with fiberglass mesh, light-colored plaster surfaces do all kinds of decorative paint or paste cylinder brick layers, tile surface layer, the surface layer of mosaics, marble surface layer.

Fireproof Design on Grain Silo

The area on bulk food warehouse shall not exceed the maximum allowable area of 12,000 square meters; the maximum allowable area for each firewall should not exceed 3,000 square meters.

Steel silo and squat silo can be arranged into groups, and total reserves of each group separately were ≤ 40000 ton, 40001-50000 t, 50001 -100,000 ton; while squat silo total reserves of each group were ≤ 50000 t, 50001-1500,000 tons.

Steel or semi-steel bulk food banks on each side of the firewall WAREHOUSE within 6 m of columns, beams, roof load-bearing structural components and building envelope fire protection measures should be taken to its fire resistance, and fire resistance should follow the "architectural design code for fire protection." 2.0.1 Requirement.

Storage silo, squat silo, underground corridor, transit warehouse, and working tower should be taken in accordance with the relevant specification explosion-proof measures.

When the total reserves on silos is more than 40,000 tons, its outdoor fire water should not be less than 45 liters / sec; when the volume of the warehouse is greater than 50,000 cubic meters, its outdoor fire water should not be less than 45 liters / sec. Squat silo’s underground corridor should set water spray system.

When the fire load of the power supply does not meet the two-level above requirements, you can be use the internal combustion engine driven fire pump.

Other fire structure of the grain silo should be designed in accordance with the architectural design of fire protection regulations.

Basic Information on Grain Silo

The bottom bears the whole grain silo, and the main structure of the silo forms to the square steel, and angle steel. Because of the large cabin, in order to transport easily, we divide the silo bottom into four sections and each angle iron and bolt are connected, which can be removed easily.

Good ventilation can not only reduce the moisture in the food, but also reduce the temperature, in order that the grains can reach industrial production indicators. Therefore, the ventilation design is a key matter. The grain silo we designed is good for natural ventilation, which has a round vents in the top storage silo, making air exchange.

The research has shown that in the low temperature, coming from summer to autumn, the silo should keep two or three ventilations, which can last many nights with four to ten hours every time. While, in winter, the silo’s temperature can keep the same, until to spring, the temperature can raise. The practice has indicated that using the best steel silo, the quality of the food still keep great as before.

The design requirements in different areas:
1. In the main ports, transportation hubs, major railway construction and other food distribution centers, in order to use higher levels of mechanization, we prefer to choose squat silo and steel silo, supplemented by large span warehouse.

2. The grain silo which should connect with the World Bank can be as a silo that is suitable for bulk grain storage.

3. The Northeast and North China may have more choices of steel silos, in order to accelerate the progress of construction. The main rice producing in the south should be mainly used warehouse or reinforced concrete squat silos.

4. Creating a new silo is mainly based on external conditions on whether it can allow bulk warehouse-type, while in the design, we should allow the implementation of "scattered" , and the expansion project should be chose based on the original position and layout.

Features of Thermal Insulation Grain Silo

1,Thermal insulation
Grain temperature change gradient inside silos is lower than that outside, thus not likely to have condensation of moisture.

2,Safe grain storage
Storing in a low temperature , increases the grain storage stability, keeps the grain quality and prolongs the safe-storage period.

3,Low fabrication cost
With installing an insulation layer (polyurethane froth, rubber sponge,glass fiber etc.) on the outer wall ,insulation silo can have a low fabrication cost compared to concrete silo.

Tips To Arrange Silos

Silos should be built in the place where has convenient transportation, residential buildings and public buildings' dry district, with full possibilities of the water supply, drainage, heating, electricity and connected to other lines. To prevent steel corrosion, the silos should not be set to waterfront places. The design and construction of silo's wall strength should meet the requirements, and also make the silo wall be smooth, easily handling materials, meanwhile the layout should be reasonable in order to save floor space.

The bottom of the mechanized silo has installed unloader funnel, and upper gallery has set a loading's transport equipment. When Loading, unloading pit's Bulk material through ascension machines shipped the supremacy-pass gallery and to unloaded into horizontal leather belt transport planes, belt conveyor will bulk material unloaded into the grain silo. When unloading, bulk material through the discharge funnel unloaded onto the the next-pass gallery, by the horizontal belt conveyor shipped out. In addition, before the grains go into the silo, the grains also need to dry, weigh, turn over warehouse, disinfection and clean. So, the silo should be equipped with corresponding equipment and devices, so as to implement automation operation.

The planar shape of the silo has square, rectangular, polygonal, circular and so on. Round silo's wall force reasonably, so you should pay particular attention to the economic use of materials in the foundation investigation and foundation design. When the stores is single species or stocks is small, you should arrange with a separate warehouse. When the stores are of more varieties or large reserves, then you can arrange in groups.

The total length of the cylindrical silo generally is not more than 60 meters, the total length of the square group silos generally are not exceed 40 meters. We should take actions when silos length is too large or the force and the situation is more complex, such as expansion joints to eliminate concrete shrinkage stress and temperature stress impacts.
