Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• Buxted has revived the idea of carrying animal feeds in tankers rather than open-topped vehicles, with the first example being built by Seadyke Freight Systems.

The 30m3, fourcompartment (2x&, 2 X 3t) tank, has six separate loading hatches and discharge hoppers with integral aeration equipment.

A Holmes 61ORBT blower powers the pneumatic load and discharge system with a self-cleaning filter on the inlet.

The tank is mounted on an ERF E10-32R 8x4 chassis.

Petrol semis

• Conoco has added nine 36,000-litre aluminium petroleum tanker semis to its 243-strong fleet of artics. They are hauled by ERF E10-325 twin-steer tractors.

Built by NEI Thompson Tankers, two of the sixcompartment tankers are fitted with API adaptors.
