Sulfur—when moisture-free is a must
Domes provide optimal moisture protection. Keep your sulfur storage dry and reduce risk of combustion with one of our domes.
Superior moisture protection: The custom PVC airform covering the dome prevents exposure to moisture. The dome’s insulated nature also prevents heating and cooling of the walls and air inside, thus preventing condensation on the walls and protecting the integrity of the product.
Explosion protection: Domes storing sulfur can be built with explosion panels in the apex that seal out moisture but are also designed to release in a deflagration event. The energy from a potential deflagration event is directed away from personnel and equipment. In addition, the dome doesn’t have roof beams or trusses that collect dust as compared to flat storages and silos, eliminating the concern of dust build-up that can contribute to a potential fire or deflagration event.
For companies eager to work hand-in-hand with a partner who knows the industry, knows the vendors, and knows a good price, look no further than Dome Technology.
Dome Technology’s steel-reinforced concrete domes offer a resilient, energy-efficient alternative to traditional data-center construction. The monolithic, insulated shell dramatically improves thermal performance and boasts physical security and operational flexibility. Cooling systems account for up to 40 percent of a conventional data center’s energy use. Dome structures address this challenge through an airtight thermal envelope made […]
A new project summary is live on our website. At the Port of Tilbury in Essex, United Kingdom building-materials expert Holcim hired Dome Technology to build a DomeSilo, the backbone component in a project that promises economic and environmental benefits for the region. Holcim approached Dome Technology after having decided on a dome as their […]
