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.
It’s almost time …. In early August, we will announce the location of our 2025 leadership conference. Stay tuned! Dome Technology Leadership Announcement
We talk a lot about our industrial projects, but we build sophisticated commercial spaces too. Take a look at our Commercial Projects page to see the custom gyms, auditoriums, storm shelters, churches, and more that we’ve built over the last few decades. See the collage below for just a sampling of the work we’ve done.
Dome Technology has produced a project summary highlighting a second dome built for American Crystal Sugar in Montgomery, Illinois, USA, a move that doubled the distribution facility’s storage capacity. This dome, with its 75,000-metric-ton capacity, was built adjacent to a nearly identical DomeSilo from a 2017 collaboration between the companies. The new dome is 184 feet […]
