As the superficial gas velocity increases, the particle density becomes uniform, the force of particle suspension and acceleration is equal to the particle static pressure head, the gas-solid phase approaches plug flow, and the radial void ratio is evenly distributed.
What is dense phase conveying?
Dense phase transportation is a process that uses airflow to transport solid powdery materials. When the density of the particle flow in the pipeline is close to the bed density in the critical fluidized state, it is called dense phase transportation.
Characteristics of dense phase transportation
Small gas flow: The gas flow required for dense phase transportation is small, and generally the material mass transported by unit mass of air is relatively large.
Large air flow pressure drop: The air flow pressure drop is large, the movement speed of particles is low, but the wear between particles and pipelines is small.
Short conveying distance: Commonly found in catalyst circulation pipes in petroleum catalytic cracking and overflow pipe equipment in multi-jet fluidized beds, the conveying distance is generally relatively short.
What is the difference between dilute and dense phase pneumatic conveying?
Dilute phase pneumatic conveying usually refers to a gas-solid two-phase mixture with smaller particles suspended in the gas, also known as gas suspension conveying. In dilute-phase pneumatic conveying, the interaction force between gas and solid particles is smaller, and there are fewer contacts and collisions between particles. Dilute phase pneumatic conveying is suitable for conveying smaller particles and powders. The conveying speed is fast, but the conveying volume is relatively small, and it is prone to problems such as particle clogging and gas leakage.
Dense phase pneumatic conveying refers to a gas-solid two-phase mixture with larger particles suspended in the gas, also known as gaseous fluidized bed conveying.
In dense phase pneumatic conveying, the interaction force between gas and solid particles is relatively large, and contact and collision between particles often occur.
Dense phase pneumatic conveying is suitable for conveying larger particles and materials with greater adhesion between particles.
The conveying volume is relatively large, but the conveying speed is relatively slow.
Therefore, the difference between dilute phase pneumatic conveying and dense phase pneumatic conveying lies in the particle size of the conveyed material and the interaction force between the gas and solid phases, as well as the applicable conveying conditions and restrictions.
Rotary valve, also known as unloading valve and star unloader, is a mechanical device that changes the valve from the open position to the closed position by rotating a rotating component such as a rotating baffle.
A rotary valve is a device that achieves fluid control by rotating a valve. In a rotary valve, the opening and closing, regulation, distribution, etc. of the fluid in the pipeline are controlled through the rotation of the valve. Therefore, the rotary valve is often called a revolving door. Rotary valves usually consist of a valve body, a valve shaft and a valve sealing ring.
Rotary valve working principle
The working principle of the rotary valve is mainly based on its design structure and working mechanism. The rotary valve usually consists of a rotor blade.

Through the low-speed rotation of the rotor and the extremely small gap between the rotor and the inner cavity of the housing, it effectively prevents the reverse flow of the air flow, thereby maintaining The air pressure in the system is stable and the materials are discharged normally.
The self-cleaning rotary valve is improved on the basis of ordinary rotary valves. By adding a cleaning blade (scraper), it can automatically remove the residual material on the rotor while dosing the material quantitatively.
It is especially suitable for sticky and easy-to-stick valves. block of special materials. Its working principle involves the coordinated work of two upper and lower rotors: the upper rotor is equipped with blades for quantitative feeding, while the lower rotor is equipped with a cleaning blade, which uses the difference in rotational speed of the upper and lower rotors to achieve self-cleaning while quantitatively feeding.
The working principle of the eccentric rotary valve is to use an eccentrically rotating sector-shaped ball valve to open and close the valve through the engagement and separation of the eccentric ball crown and the valve seat. When opening, the ball core separates from the valve seat; when closing, the ball core gradually contacts the valve seat, exerting a compressing force on the valve seat.

Its main advantages include the ability to transport from one place to multiple places, long transport distance, high height, large transport capacity and high efficiency. However, pressure-feed pneumatic conveying consumes a lot of power, has high sealing requirements, and has a complex feeder structure.
Hybrid pneumatic conveying: This mode combines the characteristics of suction and pressure conveying. It can not only suck materials from multiple places, but also transport materials to multiple places, and the conveying distance is long. However, the hybrid pneumatic conveying device is more complex, and the passage of material-containing gas through the fan will accelerate the wear of the fan.
Flow pneumatic conveying: This is a modified form of pneumatic conveying. The material exhibits fluid-like properties during the conveying process.

How does pneumatic conveying work?
The working principle of pneumatic conveying is to use the flow kinetic energy generated by high-speed flowing air to suspend particles, and then transport the granules from one place to another under the push of the air flow. Pneumatic conveying can be divided into two forms: dilute phase conveying and dense phase conveying.
In dilute phase transportation, the solid content is lower than 1-10kg/m³, the operating gas speed is high (about 18~30m/s), and the transportation distance is generally within 300m. Mature equipment such as material seal pumps are simple to operate, have no mechanical rotating parts, have low delivery pressure and are maintenance-free1. In dense phase transportation, when the solid content is 10-30kg/m³ or the solid-to-gas ratio is greater than 25, the operating air speed is low, and higher air pressure is used for conveying. The conveying distance can reach more than 500m, but the equipment has many valves and the conveying pressure is high. , all pipes must be made of wear-resistant materials.
Pneumatic conveyor is a device that uses gas flow to drive materials for transportation. It can be divided into two forms: pressure transportation and vacuum transportation. Pressure conveying is to compress air or other gases into high-pressure gas through equipment such as compressors, and then transport it through pipelines to the materials that need to be transported. The materials will flow along the pipelines with the air flow and be transported to the target location. Vacuum conveying is a process in which negative pressure is established in the conveying pipeline to form a vacuum environment, and the material is extracted from one point to another by adsorbing or grabbing it.
The pneumatic pipeline logistics transmission system consists of air compressors, pipelines, pipeline commutators, etc. Its basic purpose is to transport items. The working principle is that the air compressor extracts and compresses air as power.

Pneumatic conveying system diagram
How does a pneumatic transport system work?
The core working principle of a pneumatic transportation system is to use compressed air or airflow to create power in a pipeline to promote material transportation. The pneumatic transport system compresses air through an air compressor and sends it into a closed pipeline to form a flowing air flow. The material is loaded into a container or carrier, usually cylindrical or spherical, to reduce resistance and friction, and then inserted into the inlet of the pipe. Compressed air or airflow creates a force in the pipe that propels the container along the pipe. At the end of the pipeline, the container is taken out through a control device or valve to complete the material transfer process.
The specific workflow of the pneumatic transportation system is as follows: First, the air source system provides compressed air, and the cargo is transported and processed through actuators such as cylinders and pneumatic valves. The control system monitors and controls the operating status of the entire system to ensure the accuracy and efficiency of the transmission process. Auxiliary systems include pipelines, connectors, etc., which support the normal operation of the system. The entire system realizes material transportation through the internal air flow pressure difference, which is efficient and fast.
The advantages of pneumatic transportation systems are that they are efficient, fast, safe and have low environmental pollution. It will not affect the quality of materials and achieve fully automated management and transportation. Compared with other modes of transportation, pneumatic transportation is safer and more reliable, and is especially suitable for catering, medical, heavy industry and other fields.
Vacuum pneumatic conveying system, also known as negative pressure pneumatic conveying, is a technology that uses the force generated by the pressure difference between vacuum and atmosphere to convey or adsorb materials. Specifically, this system uses suction to move bulk dry materials, such as powders, from one place to another. The following is a detailed analysis of the vacuum pneumatic conveying system:
Working principle
When the material enters a sealed conveying pipe, the air in the pipe is exhausted to form a vacuum environment. This vacuum environment causes the material to gain a forward thrust, and at the same time, the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the pipe also produces a forward thrust. Under the combined action of these two forces, the material slides in the pipeline and is transported to the target location.
System composition
Vacuum pneumatic conveying system usually consists of the following parts:
Air source: Provide the necessary vacuum or pressure environment.
Sender: Sends material into the pipeline.
Pipes: Materials are transported within pipes.
Controller: monitors and controls the entire conveying process.
Silo: stores materials to be transported.
working process
The material is conveyed into a sealed conveying pipe. By controlling the flow and pressure of gas, materials are suspended or accumulated in the pipeline and move with the air flow. The low-pressure area formed inside the pipe is adsorbed on the inner wall of the pipe and moves with the air flow. During the conveying process, the system may regularly transfer the product to the vacuum receiver and open the discharge valve at the end of the timing to discharge the material into the designated process flow or storage facility.

Vacuum adsorption is used in the manufacturing of special fixtures, semiconductor components, optoelectronic components and sensors.
pneumatic conveyor working principle
The working principle of a pneumatic conveyor is to use the energy of air flow to transport granular materials in a closed pipe along the direction of the air flow. This process is a specific application of fluidization technology, which uses pressurized air as the transport medium to transport materials from one place to another. The following is a detailed explanation of how pneumatic conveyors work:
Basic Principle: Pneumatic conveyors use the energy of air flow to transport granular materials from one place to another through closed pipes. This conveying method can be carried out in horizontal, vertical or inclined directions, and during the conveying process, physical operations such as heating, cooling, drying and air flow classification of materials or certain chemical operations can be performed simultaneously.

What is a pneumatic vacuum conveyor?
Pneumatic vacuum conveyor is a device that uses compressed air as a power source to generate negative pressure to transport various materials. It does not require a mechanical vacuum pump and has the advantages of simple structure, small size, maintenance-free, low noise, convenient control, elimination of static electricity in materials and compliance with GMP requirements.
The working principle of the pneumatic vacuum conveyor is to drive the vacuum generator through compressed air to generate high vacuum, thereby realizing the transportation of materials. This kind of equipment is widely used in production and scientific research fields such as pharmaceuticals, food, chemicals, ceramics, feed, pigments, dyes, and agricultural products.
What is the difference between pressure conveying and vacuum conveying?
The main difference between pressure conveying and vacuum conveying lies in their different working principles and applicable scenarios. Pressure transportation uses a compressor to compress air and then transport materials through pipelines, while vacuum transportation uses a vacuum pump to extract the air in the pipeline to form a negative pressure environment to transport materials.
The working principle of pressure transmission is to install the compressor at the front end of the system. After starting, the air is pressed into the pipeline. The pressure in the pipeline is higher than the atmospheric pressure and is in a positive pressure state. After the material comes down from the hopper, it is mixed with air through the throat and sent to the separator. The separated material is discharged from the unloader, and the air is purified by the dust collector and discharged1. Vacuum transportation is to install a vacuum pump at the end of the entire system. Through the pumping action of the vacuum pump, the gas pressure in the entire pipeline system is lower than the external atmospheric pressure, forming a negative pressure state. The material is sucked into the feeding pipe under negative pressure, separated by the separator and discharged.
In terms of applicable scenarios, pressure conveying is suitable for feeding materials from one feeding point to multiple different places, and the pressure conveying system requires a well-sealed feeder at the feeding point to prevent material backflow, but does not require a discharger at the discharge point. Self-discharging1. Vacuum conveying is suitable for feeding materials from multiple different places to the same discharge point. There is no need for a feeder at the feeding point, but a well-sealed unloader is required at the discharge point to prevent material backflow1. In addition, vacuum conveying systems are more suitable when conveying fragile granules and powders.
