COURSE OUTLINE

Proper training of personnel involved in solids handling and processing is essential to operating an efficient and reliable bulk solids handling system. Since the theory of bulk solids handling is seldom a part of formal engineering training, many in industry lack an understanding of why solids handling problems occur and what practical steps can be taken to diagnose, alleviate, or prevent them. This one-day seminar will provide solid insights into common flow problems that arise when powders and bulk solids are put into silos, bins, and hoppers. Ways to characterize a material’s flow properties will also be demonstrated in our laboratory, along with a discussion of proven, practical, and cost effective design solutions.

• Introduction to bulk solids handling and material testing
• Laboratory tour with actual testing demonstrations
• Training on advanced topics (feeder design, pneumatic conveying, segregation)
• Open discussion opportunity with J&J engineers
• Social hour and Networking
