Project added over 450 thousand bushel of storage capacity with two (2) new jump form concrete tanks. This facility upgrade added two (2) new jump form concrete tanks to an existing facility. Over 450 thousand bushel of storage capacity was added in this upgrade. The new bins are tied into the existing facility through the use of drag conveyors. Three (3) new drag conveyors where added at bin top level for receiving. These drags are tied into the existing leg and provide receiving for existing bins at the facility. An additional two (2) drag conveyors where added at ground level for reclaim. These new drags tie back into the existing reclaim drag conveyor. Final bin cleanout is performed by a sweep auger located on the floor of both new bins. These augers discharge into the new reclaim conveyors. There are also truck load out spouts on both new bins.
