Clinker Storage Silo Solution
AGICO’s clinker storage steel silo solution is not merely a storage device; it is a crucial intelligent node in the entire cement plant production chain. Through the design of a sealed, moisture-proof, high-temperature, heat-resistant structure and an automated control system, AGICO helps customers achieve safe storage, efficient discharge, and green production. Facing the challenge of clinker storage, are you looking for a better solution? AGICO steel silo is your most suitable choice.
traditional clinker storage
Is the traditional open-air storage or round-bay storage method causing you the following problems?
- Extensive loss
- Environmental pollution
- Land waste
- Uneven mixing
- Moisture absorption and clumping
Advantages of clinker storage
The AGICO clinker storage steel silo system is based on high-strength steel plates, sealed welding structure, and intelligent ventilation cooling technology. It provides efficient, safe, and environmentally friendly overall solutions for clinker storage to customers worldwide.
Moisture-proof
By adopting the patented bite seal technology and special sealing materials of AGICO, external rainwater and moisture cannot penetrate at all. This effectively prevents the hydration of clinker, maintains its high activity, and eliminates the performance degradation caused by moisture to zero.
No pollution
The top of the silo is equipped with an efficient pulse dust collector, which collects dust during the feeding process; the bottom structure of the silo is integrated with the discharge system, ensuring no dust leakage.
Zero loss
The fully enclosed structure eliminates the loss of materials caused by wind erosion. According to actual data feedback from customers, compared to open-air storage, the AGICO steel silo can reduce the loss of clinker storage by more than 99%.
Conserve land area
Compared with traditional storage facilities, AGICO’s large steel silos can save 70% to 90% of the land area when storing the same amount of clinker. This means you can use the saved land to expand your production line or utilize it for other high-value purposes.
Intelligent Control
“First In, First Out” and “Last In, First Out” are flexible and controllable. Through our unique bottom-discharge system (such as multi-point discharge, airflow homogenization, etc.), the natural homogenization of materials can be achieved.
Fully automated
The entire storage system can achieve fully automated control, from material feeding, level monitoring, to discharging, all can be operated with a single click from the central control room. This significantly reduces the usage frequency of loaders, forklifts, and other equipment, as well as labor input, and can reduce operating costs by 40% to 60%.
AGICO clinker Storage Production Line
The clinker storage system provided by AGICO is a complete automated production line, enabling unmanned management from material entry to discharge.
The core process of the storage system: feeding → transportation → storage → homogenization → discharge → shipment
Efficient feeding system
The system can be easily connected to the discharge port of your rotary kiln cooler. Through belt conveyors, chain bucket elevators and other equipment, the high-temperature clinker (we have a special solution for handling clinker up to 150°C) is steadily transported to the top of the silo.
Core storage system
It is made of high-strength galvanized steel plate. It is connected using our special equipment, with bolts or rolled-edge bonding, for unparalleled strength and airtightness. The storage container has excellent seismic and wind resistance, and its designed service life can exceed 30 years.
Intelligent Discharge System
Hopper bottom steel silo: Suitable for medium and small capacity, relying on the gravity of clinker to flow out automatically. The structure is simple and the investment cost is low. Flat bottom steel silo: Suitable for large and super-large storage. The silo bottom is flat, and through multiple discharge devices and air conveying channels, it achieves efficient and thorough emptying without dead material areas, with a discharge efficiency of over 95%.
dust removal system
Equipped with the intelligent warehouse management system independently developed by AGICO. It can monitor the temperature, material level and pressure inside the warehouse in real time, and has functions of automatic alarm, remote control, data recording and analysis. The entire process is dust-free. Dust removal devices are installed at all dust-producing points such as the feed inlet and discharge outlet to form a complete environmental protection closed loop.
The entire system can operate independently or seamlessly integrate with the grinding station and bulk packaging system, enabling intelligent management of the entire process of the cement plant.
