Applicable Industries for Vertical Silo Storage Tanks
Industries that may benefit from this vertical silo-type storage tank include:
Agriculture
When people hear the term “silo,” farming and agriculture often come to mind. Agricultural silos are sometimes wood, but larger operations tend to utilize stainless steel, carbon steel, and concrete silos – depending on what they are utilizing the silo for. Silos are typically equipped with devices to maintain pressure and oxygen levels, which will protect grains and other organic materials from rot, mold, mildew, and more.
Food and Beverage
Factories that specialize in food processing – with products such as grains, sugar, and flour – require a suitable way to store and secure those materials. These types of organic substances tend to easily get picked up and float in the air, which increases both the potential for fires and explosions. Silos like the Crepaco 20,000 Gallon Refrigerated Vertical Silo Type Storage Tank also protect food substances from rot, mold, and rodent or vermin infestation. Storage and distribution of these materials and goods is greatly facilitated when a vertical silo storage tank is employed.
Chemical Processing
A vertical silo storage tank is most often utilized in the chemical industry, including pharmaceuticals, cleaners, and cosmetics. Because of the nature of the ingredients required for these applications, safety is a significant concern. In many chemical processing applications, it is necessary to contain and secure hazardous chemicals. Stainless steel vertical silo tanks are especially appropriate for applications that include loose particulates.
Construction
Silos are also often utilized to store construction materials. Because silos are efficient at keeping moisture away from materials, they are useful for concrete storage – guaranteeing that cement doesn’t get wet and solidify before it is applied. The vertical silo structure utilizes gravity to keep the cement flowing, and sturdy construction helps to avoid leaks, ruptures, and spills.
