Dense-Phase Pneumatic Conveying: Applications, System Design And Troubleshooting

The use of dense-phase pneumatic conveying is growing in bulk solids plants because the method's low velocity provides gentler handling for some materials and causes less conveying line wear than dilute-phase conveying. After describing applications for the method, this article explains how to decide of dense-phase conveying is right for your application, how to avoid some common problems when designing your own installation, and how to troubleshoot the system.
