Re: Elevating Sulphur Pastilles 10 M
Flow rate ???
Loose bulk density ???
Particle size ???
Will help to have this data
Why is dust minimisation critical if you are feeding product to a mill ??? ■
Re: Elevating Sulphur Pastilles 10 M
Flow rate = 2-7 t/hr (must be controllable)
Bulk density = 1200kg/m3
3mm diameter pastille (split pea size disc)
As Sulphur dust is an explosive Hazard, it needs to get to the entry of the mill, where the atmosphere is inert with least minimal dust generation (or if system flooded oxygen is excluded) ■
Re: Elevating Sulphur Pastilles 10 M
You could consider an En-Masse chain elevator (also known as a Redler® Elevator) for this application. Slow moving, enclosed casing, low degredation. ■

Thanks, I will look them up ■
Re: Elevating Sulphur Pastilles 10 M
Dear Mr. Giscal,
In EL-PASSO project I handled Prilled Sulphur . I used Steep angle conveyor. I used spirall chute to take care of dust emission as well as degradation of the material as it is very explosive.
But the project was closed due to financial reason.

Elevating Sulphur Pastilles 10 m
I have the need to elevate sulphur pastilles approximately 10 metres in a restricted space and was looking for possible solutions. The flow needs to be metered as it is flowing into a mill.
Dust minimisation is critical so the options I am considering are:
1. Flexible screw conveyor
2. Olds elevator
Has anyone had experience with transferring sulphur pastilles with this equipment or any alternative technology.
Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
