Dear Uditha

I am Charlie in Shanghai China. Maybe my English is poor, your mean is pumping aluminate powder to a silo? if yes, I suggest use a machinery transport sytem. Please contatct me by leemeasure@126.com.

what is the best method for pumping silo to aluminate powder , for dense phase system any expertise have typical calculation?

density - 2400 kg/m^3

layout - vertical 20m+horizontal 12m

particle size - 0.2 mm sieve passing 100 % , 0.09 mm sieve passing 30 %

free flowing cristaline , dry

demand - 5 tons/hr

thanks

Dear Uditha,

The best method for your application is a dense phase conveying system because alumina powder is highly abrasive. Use a conveying velocity of about 2 meters/sec. For your conveying distance, pneumatic conveying is much simpler than any mechanical conveyor.

I will be glad to give you a design for this conveying system. You may approach me on my email below.
