Erosive Wear By Abrasive Materials
I would suggest that you get in touch with Dr V K Agarwal at the ITMMEC (Industrial Tribology Centre) at the Indian Institute of Technology in New Delhi. Dr Agarwal is probably the leading authority on the problems of erosive wear of pneumatic conveying system pipelines in India. ■

Wear In Bends
You can use STAG Diverter Pots instead of bends.

I had used these pots in a 300 mm dia. line fed by FK Pump. The wear problem almost vanished after using these. ■

Abrasion Wear Problem
Dear Sir,
We are using Ceramic Lined MS Pipes of Dia 4" for pneumatic conveying a mix of Copper Concentrate & Silica( As Sio2) at pressure of 6 Kg/cm2.
The components in the conveying line i.e Bends, Distance pieces, Y-diverting pieces etc. are very wear prone due to abrasive nature of Silica.
We would like you to examine the case for providing a suitable ceramic liner having high wear resistance & prolonged life.
Presently;
Liner thickness is 10 mm - 5 mm Cement mortar between Ceramic Lining & Pipe/ Housing body)
Liner Type - Alumina ceramic ( 92 % )
Pipe MOC - SS 400
Length of the Pipe - There are many such components of pipe with 4 " ID on finished Ceramic Liner viz. Y- Piece, Distance Piece , Flexible Rubber Hose - 1200 mm long with ceramic Lining.
It's preferable to have the fabrication of shell/ housing & Ceramic liner at your place ,complete in all respects & sent to us.
Awaiting your reply urgently. ■
