Dense phase pneumatic conveying has many potential application areas on FBC`S. These include fuel feed, bed ash and sorbent handling. Also the conveying of ash from various parts of the boiler gas clean up system, either for reinjection to the boiler or conveying to storage. The materials being handled can be abrasive, hot and a wide range of particle sizes. Each application area must be considered and may require different types of equipment in each case to achieve economic reliable conveying. The paper describes the various forms of equipment that can be applied to each of the application areas, and explains the possibilities and limitations that exist in each case. Examples of working installations will be described.
