The advantage of the low velocity dense-phase
pneumatic conveying technology applied to food
materials handling is the ability to avoid particle
degradation for fragile materials.
This
is achieved well with the use of low velocity
transfer of the materials without fluidizing
the material. The mass of material travels along
the pipeline at extremely low velocity as little
as 2 metre per second. A special machine was
introduced for certain food materials in which
the conveying pipeline is maintained completely
full of material without any fluidization and
therefore inter particle agitation.
The
Super Denseveyor® has successfully demonstrated
this capability with whole peanuts and half peanuts.
Additionally, the low transfer velocity of the Denseveyor® has
been widely used for various other fragile material
requirements such as raisins and various grains
and pulses.
