MaxiDense Dense Phase Pneumatic Conveying SystemMaxiDense Dense Phase Pneumatic Conveying System

FLSmidth’s MaxiDense dense phase pneumatic conveying system maximizes the time spent at the design pressure of the convey system, producing the most efficient conveying possible. First, the tank design has a fully fluidized bottom using Fullerator aeration elements that promote smooth flow of material from the vessel. Further, the upward flow, side-discharge design assists in controlling material flow into the convey pipeline, working in conjunction with the other process controls of the system.

The MaxiDense technology utilizes a staged bypass to allow small increments of air to enter the convey line downstream of the tanks. Using several valves, a larger portion of convey air is bypassed at the beginning of the convey cycle when material more readily exits the tank. As the tank empties, more air is routed to the tanks to aid in tank cleanout.

This staged approach is more efficient in charging the convey line with the proper amount of material than a single valve bypass.
