SALT PROCESSING EQUIPMENT
Raw Salt Bunker
PROSALT Silo allows the raw salt to be sieved and fed continuously to the salt washing system.
Discuss this equipment
PROSALT · Salt Washing Plant
How it works
Screens and continuously feeds raw salt. A vibration mechanism helps discharge the bunker without clogging; a mechanical rotator adjusts the flow to keep the washing line running.
Its place in the process
The bunker buffers incoming raw salt before the washing line. Coordinate the discharge with the sorting conveyor and downstream washing equipment so that variations in loading do not become sudden process surges.

PROSALT Silo allows the raw salt to be sieved and fed continuously to the salt washing system. It offers many important advantages in terms of uninterrupted and efficient progress of the production process:
- Special Design Vibration Mechanism: The storage discharges smoothly and eliminates the risk of clogging.
- Mechanical Rotator: Allows for precise adjustment of the flow rate, enabling the washing process to occur at an optimal level.
- Non-stop Production: Continuous feeding eliminates interruptions in the salt processing line. This increases production capacity and saves time.

Equipment questions
Can one bunker feed an existing washing line?
The outlet position, available headroom and downstream feed demand need to be checked together. The bunker and its discharge mechanism are selected around the existing line layout.
Can this equipment be integrated into an existing salt plant?
A retrofit is assessed from the existing process flow, material analysis, available dimensions and utility connections. The upstream and downstream equipment must be reviewed together before the scope is agreed.
