Dry Solids
We have the largest fleet of gravity silos in the UK, and have been supplying both pressure and gravity silos for more than twenty years.
Pressure silos – typically used in the oil and gas industry for the storage of cement, lime and grout.
Gravity silos – typically used in the construction industry for the storage of cement, lime, grout and bentonite.
| Type of Solid | Use |
|---|---|
| Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) | Used in a wide range of construction applications. |
| Burnt lime (calcium oxide) | Used in sewage treatment to change pH level of sludge cake. |
| Barite | Used in heavy aggregate and radiation-shielding concrete for construction. Also a key component of drilling mud used in the oil and gas industry. |
| Bentonite powder | Used in construction for piling. |
| Fly ash | Offshoot material from power stations and furnaces which can be mixed with concrete to make cheap, fireproof concrete blocks. |
| PAC (Poly Aluminium Chloride) | Most commonly used in the water treatment industry as a coagulant. |
| Cement bypass dust | Used with hydrocarbon sludge waste to build new road materials. |
