Brazil’s Pneumatic Conveying System Is Widely Used In The Agricultural Field

QUESTION #1: WHAT IS PNEUMATIC CONVEYING?
One frequently asked question about pneumatic conveying is its most common variant. This method utilizes air or gas inside a closed pipe to move granular or powder substances. Its name comes from the Greek word ‘pneumatikos’, which translates to ‘of wind or air’. This technology can function as either a vacuum or a pressure system and is specified by the ratio of air to product in terms of lean phase or dense phase pneumatic conveying systems, as described in this example of a dense phase process flow.
QUESTION #2: WHAT INDUSTRIES BENEFIT FROM THESE SYSTEMS?
Pneumatic conveying systems are utilized in many industries, such as school wood and metal shops, grain and seed storage, and plastics and paper converting. Commonly utilizing pneumatic conveying systems are dairy, food processing, pharmaceutical, mining, transportation, and manufacturing. Other industries, such as ceramics and glass, cement and lime mills, building products, plastics, foundries, power, and incineration, may also use pneumatic conveying systems in specific situations. Additionally, pneumatic conveying systems can be found in waste recovery plants, including pollution control and water treatment facilities.
QUESTION #3: WHAT ARE THE MOST COMMON PNEUMATIC CONVEYING PROBLEMS YOU FIND?
Inquiries and issues often arise regarding the distinction between air volume and air pressure in pneumatic conveying systems. In some cases, systems have been modified or rates have been raised without proper calculations, leading to failure in meeting production expectations and experiencing blockages and decreased performance.
QUESTION #4: WHAT ARE THE MAJOR CAUSES OF THESE INEFFICIENCIES?
Common inefficiencies in technical design can result from a lack of knowledge and ad hoc installation of existing systems. Inexperienced engineers may overlook this when implementing pneumatic conveying systems, despite their value and importance.
QUESTION #5: HOW DOES RESPOND TO PNEUMATIC CONVEYING ERRORS AND INEFFICIENCIES?

This scientific and objective approach allows us to identify the most efficient components for maximum performance.
QUESTION #6: HOW WILL I KNOW IF A PNEUMATIC CONVEYING SYSTEM IS BEST FOR MY SITUATION?
In need of an engineer’s expertise to determine the most suitable pneumatic conveying system for your needs? Look no further, as our team will thoroughly assess your conveyed materials’ unique properties, plant location and environment, and desired transfer rate.


QUESTION #7: HOW ABOUT MECHANICAL CONVEYING SYSTEMS? HOW ARE PNEUMATIC CONVEYING SYSTEMS BETTER THAN THESE?
Pneumatic conveying systems have several strengths, including cost-effectiveness and containment, making them an ideal choice for moving powder and granular materials over long distances. By being fully enclosed, they prevent dust emissions and minimize the risk of contamination, making them a safer and more environmentally friendly option compared to mechanical conveying systems. Additionally, pneumatic conveying systems require less maintenance and are more affordable to operate.
QUESTION #8: YOU’VE MENTIONED MANY ADVANTAGES OF PNEUMATIC CONVEYING SYSTEMS. DOES IT HAVE ANY DISADVANTAGES?
One of the most effective ways to optimize pneumatic conveying systems is by utilizing rates up to 100 mph. However, even with this approach, inefficiencies may still occur in shorter pipe lengths or at extremely high conveying rates. In these situations, it is recommended to employ mechanical conveying systems to fully capitalize on direct power usage.
QUESTION #9: WHAT PNEUMATIC CONVEYING PRODUCTS DO YOU OFFER INDUSTRIES?
