Port line of pneumatic grain transportation
Port line of pneumatic grain transportation
In the port of Giurgiulesti (TransCargo Terminal, Moldova), a project of continuous transportation of grain over a distance of 330 meters with a productivity of up to 200 t/h has been implemented.
During the implementation of the project, a unique method of continuous pneumatic transportation of wheat, barley, corn, peas, rapeseed was implemented. The specific consumption of compressed air was 12-18 nm3/t (1.6-2.0 kW=h/t). For grain transportation, chamber pumps with a volume of 20 m3 through a pipeline d 273 mm are used.
