Abstract

One area which normally receives the least attention in the design of pneumatic conveying systems is that of the gas—solids separation system. Yet in many trouble shooting exercises, inadequate design in this area is often found to be the cause of unreliable plant operation or total failure. The gas—solids separation unit can have a profound influence on the performance of a system and is particularly critical in negative pressure and low pressure pneumatic conveying systems.
