In all sugar factories there is a need to store the white sugar produced for a longer or shorter period of time. With today's standard factory sizes, storage capacities of more than 100,000 t per factory are necessary. Large-capacity silos such as those built in various designs in the sugar factories are used for this purpose. In addition to an overview of the various silo designs, information on the conditioning and heating of the silos and the requirements for explosion protection are compiled.

Due to international agreements, there is a requirement to reduce ammonia emissions in beet sugar factories and to comply with the specified limit values. After looking at the sources of ammonia emissions in sugar factories, various ways of reducing these emissions are shown. In case of carbonatation exhaust gases in addition to reducing emissions, there is also the option of extracting heat from the exhaust gases and using it for technological purposes, which reduces the total energy consumption.
