What does Fourth of July have in common with other celebrations in cultures worldwide? – Fireworks. So...just how are those explosive wonders made?
The loading of dry bulk materials into trucks & rail cars for transport is known to create dust. As many of these airborne particles are potentially hazardous, they are regulated by various agencies.
When designing valves used to handle cement, engineers need to take into account several factors, including type of material handled, conveying method, conveying line pressures, temperature...
Realizing the success of holiday-themed candies, major chocolate brands have chocolatiered holiday renditions of many confectionery classics.
For more than 40 years, Vortex Global has provided quality slide gates, diverters, iris valves and loading spouts designed specifically for handling dry bulk solids.
A common practice for handling dry bulk solids in a dilute-phase production process is to feed material from a silo through a rotary airlock and into a positive pressure pneumatic conveying system.
By working with a valve manufacturer, a Texas chemical company automated their pneumatic conveying system so the operator can direct powder to several destinations — simply by sitting at a computer.
Valve suppliers often receive quote requests for a “knife gate” when what a company is really looking for is a “slide gate” for dry bulk material handling.
Loading spouts have increased in use for dry bulk material handling in open trucks, stockpiles, railcars, tank vehicles, barges and ships.
There are many methods currently used across industries to reduce dust emissions. The following are the most common practices used in manufacturing processes today.
A slide gate deflector cone, referred to by Vortex as a Special Service Inlet (SSI), is an inexpensive deflector cone used in gravity flow applications.
Transporting and conveying dry bulk solids is never a straightforward task. Many in the industry would go as far as saying success takes a mix of "black magic", science, and engineering.
Butterfly valves are not designed to handle dry bulk solids. They were designed for gas and liquid applications. The abrasiveness of dry bulk solids erodes away on butterfly valves.
Many industries rely heavily on one another for certain raw materials and by-products. Kevin Peterson explains how this is apparent in West Virginia’s coal-fired energy, cement and oil/gas industries.
The bulk handling of flour as we know it today did not just happen. A few pioneers made it happen. There was a lot of hard work involved; some successes and a large number of failures.
We are conveying foundry sand and our diverter valves wear out too frequently. What qualities should we look for when replacing these valves?
This Q&A with Paul Deegan, Engineering Manager – Special Projects, Vortex, explains why various materials of construction are necessary when designing equipment for dry bulk solids material handling.
Aerated bin bottoms are used to move lighter weight dry bulk material that is capable of being fluidised. Fluidisation is the process in which air is passed through static, dry material.
With a growing global population expected to reach nearly 10 billion by the year 2050, our highly populated planet will need to be fed.
Barge freight is extremely energy efficient, considering the number of kilometers 1 t of material can be carried per liter of fuel.
Slide gates and diverter valves that use pneumatic actuators (air cylinders) must be equipped with a properly matched pneumatic solenoid valve.
