Session 203: Bins and Feeders: From New Designs to Retrofits

Bins & Hoppers: The Basics

by Joseph Marinelli,

Flow problems in bins and hoppers can be costly in terms of equipment downtime and maintenance, lost production, and poor product quality. Solids flow problems in industries such as utilities, chemical, food, plastics, etc. can be disastrous. Bulk solids handling in bins and hoppers, is not a topic that is typically taught at the university level.

In this workshop, we will provide those unfamiliar with solids flow principles andgraduates, the basic information required to identify and solve bin and hopper flowproblems

Retrofits Workshop

by Joseph Marinelli,

Solids Handlings Technologies, Inc.

The solution to typical solids handling problems requires modification to existing bins, hoppers and feeders. It is oftentimes more economical to use an existing structure as opposed to installing new equipment. There are many practical approaches to modifying bins and hoppers. In this session, we will discuss several approaches to retrofitting existing bins. The technique begins with knowledge of material flow properties. Modifications to existing systems by using liners, wedge shaped hoppers; cone-in-cone designs, etc. will be discussed.
