  4. Silo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silo

    A small adjustable nozzle at the top, controlled by a handle at the base of the silo directs the silage to fall into the silo on the near, middle, or far side, to facilitate evenly layered loading. Once completely filled, the top of the exposed silage pile is covered with a large heavy sheet of silo plastic which seals out oxygen and permits ...

    Silage gas contains nitric oxide (NO), which will react with oxygen (O 2) in the air to form nitrogen dioxide (NO 2), which is toxic. [16] Lack of oxygen inside the silo can cause asphyxiation. Molds that grow when air reaches cured silage can cause organic dust toxic syndrome. Collapsing silage from large bunker silos has caused deaths. [17]
