Correct Answer:
C. Silo
Explanation:
The large steel cylindrical metal containers used in Ready Mix Concrete (RMC) plants for storing cement, fly ash, and other cementitious materials are known as silos. These vertical structures are specifically designed to hold bulk powders in large quantities while protecting them from moisture and environmental contaminants.
While other components like mixers are used for blending materials and screw conveyors are used for transporting them, silos serve as the primary storage units. They often feature conical bottoms to facilitate easy discharge and include specialized systems such as aeration jets to prevent clogging and level indicators to monitor inventory.
