Grain silos store food industry products either in a store or somewhere in or outside of a building. Loading operations are normally operated by mechanical means such as pipes, conveyor belts, augers, etc through loading inlets placed in the upper part of the silo tower. Products can be collected after storage by unloading hatchback door and are transported by means of pneumatic or manual conveying systems.
It is important to remember that food industry products consist of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, sulfur, oxygen, etc.. They are able to combust and start fires and explosions so precautions need to be taken.
In any case, even if the grains have higher dimensions, it must considered that the solid parts generate normally dust. It should be always kept in mind the rule saying that dusts generate finer dust. Obviously, the presence of combustible dust always involves, if triggered, danger of explosion.
