Continuous pneumatic conveying system

positive-pressuredense phasedilute phase

Overview
Boiler ash conveying systems provide closed, dust-controlled transport of boiler ash and related particulate residues. Designed for integration with treatment lines and storage, these systems prioritize containment, continuous operation and compliance with environmental regulations.

Benefits

• Environmental protection: Prevents ash dispersion, supports air quality control and helps meet regulatory requirements.
• Operational efficiency: Automated conveying reduces manual handling and maintains continuous production flows.
• Cost optimisation: Lowers handling losses, optimises energy use and reduces operating expenses.
• Safety and hygiene: Closed systems limit spills and contamination, improving workplace safety and cleanliness.

Products and Services

• Raw Material Storage and Silos: Custom silos and storage solutions with moisture protection and sizing adapted to facility throughput and layout.
• Pneumatic Conveying Systems: Vacuum and pressure conveying options, including dense-phase and dilute-phase configurations, for dust-free transport and preservation of ash characteristics.
• Dosing and Feeding Systems: Precise dosing units with automatic control to feed ash and additives in defined proportions and flow rates.
• Process Automation Systems: Integrated automation with real-time monitoring, data logging and process control for reliable operation and traceability.
