Pneumatic Conveying Systems (Dilute / Lean Phase) Description

Solid, Granular & powdered materials have been handled conventionally, by mechanical conveying equipments such as belt conveyors/screw conveyors/ bucket elevators/ goods lifts etc.

This newer concept is making the solids airborne, in a fluid state, with the help of air or an inert gas traveling in a closed pipeline. The concept was found very attractive due to a closed pipeline conveying & was picked up by most industries for handling of solids pneumatically, in the last three decades.

Depending on the product characteristics, air volume & pressures are applied at the design stage. These parameters categorise the systems as either the DENSE Phase Pneumatic Conveying System or DILUTE / LEAN Phase Pneumatic Conveying System.

TECHFLOW designs and manufactures Pneuma-LeanX lean/dilute phase conveying systems for vacuum conveying. In this system, the material is conveyed with the help of a Centrifugal Blower/Roots Blower/Regenerative Blower, for example, a powder conveying system employs both pressure and vacuum to transport materials as they were liquids vertically and horizontally to and from process devices. Here material is conveyed either by negative suction or by positive pressure of blower.

Features of Pneumatic Conveying Systems (Dilute / Lean Phase)

Closed loop system- thus eliminating dusting
Suitable for complex plant layouts and for less fluidizable material
Ready to start systems - No Alignment / trials required
Robust systems, User friendly & with low maintenance demand
Higher conveying distances are possible as compared to Mechanical transfer
Less breakdown incidences & single point Maintenance
Single point utilities (Air, Electricals) connection
Online transfer system - No requirement of storage hopper for transfer
Very small installation space/Foot print is required to install the vessel
Elimination of Major Civil works/Foundations etc
Suitable for long distances & multiple locations
