Abstract
Relevance and methods. One of the main tasks of grain production in Russia is the storage of harvested grain crops. The growth of grain capacity in recent years has been mainly due to the construction of metal grain storage facilities. This is due to lower capital costs and shorter installation times compared to reinforced concrete silos. The
use of polymer composite materials (PKM) and, in comparison with traditional alloys, provides for a reduction in the weight of the metal structure, an increase in its resource, a reduction in the labor and energy intensity of manufacturing parts by up to 50%, an increase in the strength properties of the structure, a reduction in labor costs during the preparation of production, as well as an increase in the terms of exportation.
Results. The purpose of this study was to review Russia’s grain complex and the tasks it faces, in particular the problems of storage and processing of crops. The main storage method — silos and their structural characteristics — was considered. A comparative analysis of traditional materials with composite ones was carried out and the advantages of the latter were concluded.
