Coal is the main energy source for steam power generation, mainly composed of elements such as carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, and phosphorus. The sum of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen accounts for more than 95% of organic matter, and is a very important energy source. It is also an important raw material for metallurgy and chemical industry, and can be classified into lignite, bituminous coal, anthracite, and semi-anthracite. In the past, coal was mostly stored in the open air, but the coal stored in this way is easy to deteriorate and lose its high combustion value, and the coal is easy to weather after being dried, and it is blown everywhere with the strong wind to pollute the environment. Therefore, with the continuous improvement of coal enterprises' requirements for automatic production, silo coal storage has been widely developed and used.

Fly ash is a fine powder that is a byproduct of burning pulverized coal in electric generation power plants. This residue, known as fly ash, is created when the mineral impurities in the coal fuse together as they come out of the combustion chamber, then cool down and harden. When mixed with lime and water, fly ash forms a compound similar to Portland cement. As we all know, fly ash plays an important role in the cement industry, medicine field, building materials field, agricultural production, etc. due to its wide distribution of raw materials, simple production process, and low cost. In the cement industry, the use of fly ash ingredients can reduce the cost of raw materials for cement enterprises and enhance the competitiveness of enterprises, and the effective storage of fly ash is the first consideration. If fly ash is collected and stacked in the open air, it will not only occupy a large amount of land, but also pollute the air and groundwater at the stacked place, causing great harm to the environment, and it is not suitable for open air storage. Therefore, how to store fly ash safely and properly has become a concern of many people.

The Features and Reasons of Popularity of Welded Steel Silos

How Are Steel Silos Classified and What Are Their Characteristics?

Spiral steel silo is a form of steel silo that uses a special processing method to connect the spiral undercut of the silo wall. The spiral steel silo has the functions of receiving, storing, unloading, and reversing the granular objects, and plays a role in balancing the production process, ensuring continuous production, saving manpower, and improving the degree of mechanization. The spiral steel silos produced by SRON are widely used in grain, oil, building materials, chemical industry, electric power, environmental protection, sewage treatment, ports and other industries for the storage of granular and powdery materials.
