Tools

Technologies and Innovations

This project incorporated several innovative technologies and solutions, including:

  • Concrete Silos: Six concrete silos with inner stice bins were built to hold 10,588 metric tonnes of grain, ensuring durability and efficiency.
  • Grain Cleaning Line: A cleaning system with a capacity of 90 metric tonnes per hour was installed to maintain grain quality.
  • Advanced Shipping Systems: The facility is equipped with a shipping capacity of 1,360 metric tonnes per hour and features track loadout systems for efficient grain dispatch.
  • Ongoing Operational Capacity: Despite construction, the terminal maintained operational efficiency with a shipping and receiving capacity of 272 metric tonnes per hour.
