Storage of white sugar in large-capacity silos

In all sugar factories there is a need to store the white sugar produced for a longer or shorter period of time. With today‘s standard factory sizes, storage capacities of more than 100,000t per factory are necessary. Large-capacity silos such as those built in various designs in the sugar factories are used for this purpose. In addition to an overview of the various silo designs, information on the conditioning and heating of the silos and the requirements for explosion protection are compiled.
