Flow of Solids – Pneumatic

Pneumatic conveying is a widely used method for transporting bulk solids in industries such as cement, food processing, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and power generation. Efficient handling of solids flow requires a deep understanding of particle behavior, air-solid interaction, system design, and operational control.

This 5-day intensive training program, developed by Global Horizon Training Center, provides a comprehensive and practical approach to the flow of solids and pneumatic conveying systems. It covers conveying principles, system design, equipment selection, troubleshooting, and optimization techniques.

Participants will gain the knowledge and skills required to design, operate, and maintain pneumatic conveying systems efficiently while minimizing operational issues such as blockages, wear, and energy losses.

By the end of this program, participants will be able to:

• Understand the fundamentals of solids flow and particle behavior
• Differentiate between dilute phase and dense phase conveying
• Design and analyze pneumatic conveying systems
• Select appropriate equipment (blowers, compressors, pipelines)
• Identify and troubleshoot conveying problems
• Optimize system performance and energy efficiency
• Reduce wear, erosion, and material degradation

• Mechanical and Process Engineers
• Plant and Operations Engineers
• Maintenance and Reliability Engineers
• Bulk Material Handling Professionals
• Engineers in cement, food, chemical, and industrial sectors
