Applications range from large scale ship bulk cargo unloaders through to small in-plant systems. The Wolfson Centre has wide experience of different pneumatic conveying systems and the types of problems that can arise as a result of mismatching materials, feeders, pipe designs, or air movers to one another. The presenters have pooled their vast knowledge and experience in dealing with these problems to deliver a 2 day course, twice a year, which will cover operational and design issues associated with such systems. Day 3 is a practical session (optional) in their laboratory.
