Bin whipping involves lowering a bin whip into the vessel, bin, or silo that holds dry bulk materials from the top opening. The bin whip is operated from the top of the area that needs cleaning. Then, it’s lowered into the storage vessel carefully, maintaining a safe distance from workers.
The bin whip can then be powered by compressed air to perform a variety of whips or cutting-edge movements that will knock off any stuck or built-up materials. The worker will continue navigating the bin whip through the structure, ensuring that all built-up materials are successfully removed from the vessel's walls, silo, or bin.
The bin whip is strong enough to cut through caked-on materials, but the material used in the whip will not damage or compromise the vessel's walls or silo.
The main purpose of silo cleaning is to remove blockages or material accumulation in vessels:
- Eliminate dangerous "in the vessel" cleaning by plant personnel
- Recover design capacity
- Decommissioning Vessels During Conversion or Shutdown
- Eliminate Combustion-Generating "Hot Spots."
