Bulk Tanker Unloading

Bulk Tanker Unloading

Scorpio’s Bulk Tanker unloading systems are tailor-made for handling dry bulksolids from supplier to user for industries such as Food, Minerals, Cement, Chemicals, and Petrochemicals etc. The Bulk Tankers will be unloaded by different methods  usually into storage silos, and then pneumatically conveyed into downstream processes.

Scorpio offers Bulk Tankers and unloading systems  in various types namely, conical discharge, aerated bottom type, screw discharge etc. depending on the material being handled and its properties

Unloading blowers / compressors will be placed at the unloading area coupled through flexible pipes.

The major advantages of powder transportation in tankers are:

✅ Dust free and loss free handling

✅ Elimination of bags and bag handling

Automatic unloading to silos using pressurized air

✅One man operation

The Mandate: Dust free unloading from bulk tanker to silo and pneumatic conveying of the flo to downstream filter receivers.

Our Solution: The systems are customised for different end products and capacities. We designed and manufactured turnkey modular solutions.

Milestones:

✅ Layout optimisation 

✅ Low energy consumption

Dust free, hygienic environment

✅ Maintenance- free

✅ Completely automated

✅ High Output
