Storage Tank Design Options
Material Options for Cement Storage Tanks
Depending on the material being stored, Shivam Engineering & Fabrication offers different construction materials:
- Heavy-Duty Mild Steel (MS) with Epoxy Coating – Standard for cement, fly ash, raw meal, and clinker storage. Internal epoxy coating prevents material buildup and corrosion.
- Abrasion-Resistant Steel (Hardox/AR) – For high-wear areas in fly ash and cement storage (discharge cone, aeration zone).
- Stainless Steel SS304 – For water storage and corrosive additive storage.
- Galvanized Steel – For outdoor water storage tanks.
Cement Storage Silo – Detailed Features
Our cement storage silos include the following features for efficient operation:
- Aeration System – Aeration pads to fluidize cement for easy discharge. Compressed air manifold with control valves.
- Dust Collector – Integrated bag filter on top of the silo to capture dust during filling operations.
- Level Monitoring – Continuous level sensors (radar/ultrasonic) and high/low level switches.
- Pressure Relief Valve – For overpressure protection during pneumatic filling.
- Access Platform – For safe access to top of silo for maintenance.
- Discharge System – Butterfly valve, rotary airlock, or slide gate at the bottom.
- Weighing System (optional) – Load cells for inventory management.

Frequently Asked Questions – Storage Tank for Cement Industry
1. What is the typical capacity of a cement storage silo?
Typical cement storage silo capacities range from 500 tonnes to 10,000+ tonnes. Smaller plants may use 500-2,000 tonne silos, while large integrated plants use 5,000-10,000+ tonne silos. Our team can recommend based on your plant production rate.
2. What coating is used inside cement storage tanks?
We apply epoxy coating (typically 200-300 microns) on the internal surfaces of cement and fly ash storage tanks. This prevents material buildup, reduces friction, and protects against corrosion from moisture in the cement.
3. Do you provide aeration systems for fly ash storage tanks?
Yes. Fly ash storage tanks require aeration pads to fluidize the fly ash for discharge. We provide a complete aeration system with aeration pads, compressed air manifold, and control valves tailored to your discharge rate requirements.
4. What is the typical delivery time for a cement storage silo?
Standard capacities (500-2,000 tonnes): 6-8 weeks. Large silos (5,000-10,000+ tonnes): 10-14 weeks. Custom designs may require additional time based on complexity.
