Session description

Safe and efficient extraction technology for bulk material conveying requires a well-thought-out design of the piping systems. Essential fundamentals of fluid mechanics, such as dimensioning based on process parameters and the method for measuring volume and mass flow, play a central role and are core topics of the presentation.

 Another focus is on explosion protection: Potentially dangerous electrostatic charges can arise, particularly during the pneumatic conveying of dry bulk materials. The risks that result from this – and how they can be effectively minimized with targeted equipotential bonding measures and compliance with relevant ATEX guidelines – are part of the practice-oriented technical dialogue.
