Certainty for Verborg biorefinery in Farmsum: Premium composite silos for optimal process flow
In Farmsum, we recently installed two new composite silos as an expansion alongside existing facilities. These premium storage solutions are specifically designed for an innovative biorefinery focused on continuity, process reliability, and sustainability.
Customization for specific needs
The new installation includes:
- A 70 m³ silo for activated carbon
- A larger 122 m³ silo for bleaching earth
These silos are fully tailored to the specific characteristics of activated carbon and bleaching earth, taking into account their unique flow behavior. This ensures reliable and consistent supply of raw materials in the production process.
Advantages of Polem composite silos for biorefineries
The seamless, strong, and mirror-smooth construction of our GRP (glass reinforced plastic) silos offers significant advantages:
- No product residues - Materials flow through smoothly thanks to the smooth inner wall
- Less maintenance - GRP is corrosion-resistant and requires minimal maintenance
- Process reliability - Constant flow without disruption of the production process
- Longer lifespan - Durable construction with a lifespan of 20-30 years
Why this biorefinery chose Polem
For innovative production processes such as those at this biorefinery, Verborg in Farmsum, operational reliability is essential. The client chose Polem for our uncompromising quality and specialized knowledge of flow properties of powders such as activated carbon and bleaching earth.
At Polem, quality is central - in materials, design, and service. Every grain, every drop counts. This project perfectly demonstrates how our premium storage solutions contribute to optimal process flow and maximum efficiency.
