Corrosion is the deterioration of metal caused by the reaction of metal within the environment. Corrosion naturally occurs anywhere metal is in contact with humidity, sea air, chemicals, fertilizers,...
Being first to market is one way to establish industry dominance – especially an industry that moves as quickly as fracking. But being first isn’t enough. If you are first and unprepared, it’s easy...
New fabric structure replaces corroded building
Fracking is an important tool for supplying energy to the world. And fracking requires at least one tool in large amounts: frac sand. Without a ready supply of sand, there is no way to keep a frac...
Moisture, even in small amounts, can wreak havoc on stored bulk material. Water causes agricultural products – including grain, corn, pulses, cereals, wheat, corn cobs and feed – to spoil more...
Bulk fertilizer and commodity storage may seem like a relatively simple business: increase capacity as much as possible while keeping the per-bushel storage cost low. But of course things are rarely...
Bulk material handling is a competitive business. Owners and operators are tasked with providing low-cost storage plus high-efficiency handling and loading. Count in uncontrollable factors like poor...
Fabric structures have many natural advantages for agricultural storage: a temperate environment with passive ventilation, clearspan storage space, an inability to corrode. The added design...
On a hot day, the desire to stay cool seems all-consuming. Equipment and bulk material – particularly temperature-sensitive items such as commodity crops and waste matter – also thrive in a cooler...
