ABSTRACT:
A bulk cement storage system which includes storage units for storing the cement, as well as devices for transporting the cement to the storage units and removing the cement from the storage units. The storage units include a circular base member with a hole in its center which slopes inward at a shallow angle toward the hole. A number of porous sections are formed in the base member to permit a stream of compressed air to pass through the porous sections into the stored cement. A generally circular shaped dome covers the base member to provide environmental protection for the storage area. The cement is stored as a free standing pile on the base member within the storage area. The compressed air causes the cement to develop flow characteristics similar to a liquid, so that the cement can be removed from the storage bin utilizing a pneumatic conveying system.
