Introduction of Rice Bran
Rice bran is a by-product of the rice milling process; it makes up 10 percent of rice, with a potential global production of 48 million tons per year. Most are used as animal feed or discarded as waste. Nowadays, rice bran has attracted the attention of researchers because it is widely available, cheap, and rich in nutrients such as protein, fat, carbohydrates, bioactive compounds and dietary fiber, making rice bran widely used in feed, food and other industries. This will encourage entrepreneurs to store rice bran on a large scale to produce rice bran-related foods. Therefore, how to store rice bran safely and stably has become a concern of some industries.
Storage Conditions of Rice Bran
1. In spring and autumn, rice bran can be stored for 7-9 days, not more than 5 days in summer, and not more than 15 days in winter.
2. The rice bran storage silo needs to be dry, cool and ventilated.
3. If you want to store for a long time, you need to puff the rice bran. After puffing, it can be stored for 2 months.
Why Choose Steel Silo to Store Rice Bran
Rice bran is stored in various forms, depending on quantity, use and location. The general storage methods include traditional bag storage and horizontal warehouse storage, but these two methods have brought great difficulties to mechanized production. At present, grain steel silos are the first choice of many large and medium-sized enterprises. Under the same material consumption, steel silo has a large volume, occupies a small area, and is evenly stressed around it, which is convenient for material loading and unloading. Its efficient and safe operation provides good conditions for the automatic operation of rice bran cleaning, transportation and storage. The capacity of steel silo is generally between 20-2000 tons. Good sealing performance, fast construction speed and advanced material level measurement technology are in line with the trend of mechanized production in factories today.
