Carbotechnik silo systems
Custom-built silos for safe dust storage
Carbotechnik offers innovative silo systems for the safe and efficient storage of combustible dusts. Our solutions are custom-designed to meet customer requirements and are optimally tailored to the needs of your processes. We place the highest priority on safety: All silos comply with the strict ATEX safety standards and also take into account the recommendations of fuel suppliers.
This way, we guarantee not only cost-effective storage but also smooth operation. No matter what your specific requirements are, our custom-designed silo systems offer the perfect solution for your powdered fuels.
Applications:
Construction materials and cement industry, boiler systems, combustion systems
Technical details
For our silos in potentially explosive atmospheres, we offer a comprehensive range of technical equipment that complies with the strict ATEX standards.
Safe and efficient storage: how our silo system works
Our silos for powdered fuels are designed to ensure maximum safety and efficiency. The fuel is pneumatically conveyed from supply vehicles into the silo. An intercooler cools the conveying air, while appropriate filtration technology removes dust from the exhaust air. The silo contents are continuously monitored via level measurements and temperature monitoring. Material discharge occurs uniformly via a rotary valve, and the material loosening mechanism in the silo cone ensures safe discharge even of poorly flowing materials.
Additional safety mechanisms, such as explosion vents and CO monitoring, ensure safe operation. The entire system control can be integrated into a higher-level process control system (PCS), and the turnkey design guarantees easy commissioning.
