HOME >> NEWS >> Comparison Of Lipp Storage Silo and Concrete Silo

Lipp Steel silo system featured with a light weight, on the basis of low demand "(an average of half of reinforced concrete silo construction period), small footprint, the provincial labor and low cost, but also in vivo using double-wall outer wall with the warehouse processing two different materials integrally, the construction cost can be reduced. Meanwhile, steel silo construction not affected by season, weather and other factors, companies can use to quickly achieve good economic returns. According to the actual calculation, compared with the same capacity of reinforced concrete silos, the amount of steel reinforcement steel silo and its amount is almost equivalent to savings of about two-thirds of the amount of cement; concrete silo due to weight and height requirements of its base cost, high total investment, to be higher than 15% to 40%, both of which cost analysis are shown in Table 3-1.

Fabricated steel silo storage capacity, high degree of automation machinery, management tends to be scientific, rationalization, network, can effectively reduce operating costs, and removable partial replacement, easy to operate. On the same storage capacity, the concrete silos small diameter, high altitude, relatively high grain layer height, grain storage management more difficult (such as difficult ventilation or ventilation uneven reach grain storage ventilation; fumigation difficulty is to use PH3 fumigants are difficult to penetrate and reach the deeper layers of grain effect; grain layer of various parts of the food quality sampling detection more difficult, etc.), maintenance is more difficult, especially after prolonged use, prone to cracks and other damage to insulation and vapor barriers phenomenon, difficult to repair, maintenance will be more difficult.

Steel silo cost comparison

In operating costs, for example, two different experimental data warehouse tables granary 3-1 type job to WAREHOUSE loaded packing grain and loading bulk grain silos compared to unload a column 40 train carriages 2400T calculations, direct job cost: wAREHOUSE was 13.12 yuan / t, silos 0.93 yuan / t, steel silos generally less than 0.93 yuan / t, even lower operating costs relative to the reinforced concrete warehouse slightly lower (some of the data cited China grain Logistics self training Center in July 2000 published "food move down process"). To save the custody of 37 kilograms of rice a year, for example, custody fees: silo 2.94 yuan / jin and conventional storage needs 13.6 yuan / jin; run incidentals (out of warehouses power consumption, warehouse costs, human): steel silo 3.93 yuan / jin and conventional storage needs 4.78 yuan / jin.
