Thesis on blending in large silos This thesis focuses on the applicability of large-scale homogenization in mammoth silos. Mammoth silos are frequently used for the storage of both free flowing and cohesive materials up to volumes of 100,000 m3. For the upgrading of free flowing bulk materials blending piles can be used. However, to date, an upgrading facility for cohesive bulk material is not available. Adding the functionality of homogenization to a mammoth silo means that both free flowing and cohesive materials can be stored and homogenized under climatological controlled circumstances. The competitiveness of homogenizing in mammoth silos versus blending piles depends on the achievable rate of homogenization and the required homogenization efficiency for successive processes. Investment costs and available space are also relevant factors: there is an increasing market for compact and indoor storage facilities in densely populated areas. Experiments were set up to investigate the suitability

Breed assortiment en grote toewijding werpen hun vruchten af Managing director Gustaaf Zeeman van EMT is een enthousiast verteller.
