Abstract

Handling of powders and bulk solids has been reported in numerous references in the literature. Characterization of powders and bulk solids regarding their flow properties plays an important role, for example, for product development and optimization and customer support. The discharge of powders and bulk solids from silos, hoppers, transport containers, etc., may result in severe problems due to flow obstructions, segregation, shocks and vibrations, or unsteady flow. To avoid such complications, solutions have to be found considering the flow properties of the bulk solid. It is the purpose of this chapter to review some of the equipment that have been successfully utilized in the past to transport and store HGMs.
