The mechanisms of powder flow are complex. They are influenced by an array of different parameters; some relate to the particles’ physical attributes, such as size and shape, and others, such as humidity, to the system itself. Although there is a general understanding of these individual mechanisms, the multitude of interactions that govern the specific behavior of a given powder can many and in turn, affect how these powders are processed. In this Chemical Processing Powder eHandbook, we take a look at technologies and strategies for handling powders including:
• How to Optimize Humidity for Efficient Powder Handling - too much or too little moisture can cause problems during processing and storage
• How to Select the Right Conveying and Feeding System - successful bulk handling of calcium carbonate depends on a variety of factors
• Suppressing Explosions for Process Protection - A properly designed and engineered suppression system offers many advantages
