  1. Silo cleaning

    unreferenced date December 2007 Silo cleaning is a process to maximize the efficiency of storage silo s that hold bulk powders or granules. In silos, material is fed through the top and removed from the bottom. Typical silo applications include animal feed, industrial powders, cement, and pharmaceuticals. Free movement of stored materials, on a first in, first out basis, is essential in maximizing silo efficiency. The goal of silo efficiency is to ensure that oldest material is used first and does not contaminate newer, fresher material. Two main problems, Acoustic cleaning Rat holing rat holing and Acoustic cleaning Bridging bridging , complicate silo efficiency. When rat holing occurs, powders adhere to the sides of silos. Bridging occurs when material blocks at the silo base. Manual cleaning, by lowering a worker on a rope to free material, is the simplest way to clean silos. However, manual cleaning is dangerous due to the release of material and the possible presence of gases. In cases of bridging, an additional danger exists as the exit hole needs to be rodded from underneath, exposing the worker to falling powder. Alternative cleaning methods include Air blaster s are a well established cleaning method. Air cannons are expensive, however, as limited coverage requires purchase of multiple units. Air cannons are also noise intrusive and require high consumption of compressed air. Vibrators are easy to fit into empty silos, but can cause structural damage and contribute to powder compaction. Low friction linings are quiet, but expensive to install and prone to erosion which can then contaminate the environment or product. Inflatable pads and liners are easy to install in empty silos and can help side wall build up but have no effect on bridging. Inflatable pads and liners are also hard to maintain and can cause compaction. Fluidisation through a one way membrane can ... from outside of the vessel.

  1. SILO (boot loader)

SILO generally looks similar to the basic version of LILO boot loader LILO , giving a boot prompt, at which the user can press the Tab key to see the available images to boot. The configuration file format is reasonably similar to LILO s, as well as some of the command line options. However, SILO differs significantly from LILO because it reads and parses the configuration file at boot time, so it is not necessary to re run it after every change to the file or to the installed kernel images. SILO is able to access ext2 , ext3 , Unix File System UFS , romfs and ISO 9660 file systems, enabling it to boot arbitrary kernels from them more similar to GNU GRUB GRUB . SILO also has support for transparent decompression of gzipped vmlinux images, making the bzImage format unnecessary on SPARC Linux. SILO is loaded from the SPARC Programmable read only memory PROM .
