ME1073(GA2) : Sulphur Bulk Loading

Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview sulphur bulk loading. It covers the fundamentals of sulphur bulk handling, feeding, storage and ship loaders; the portal reclaimers, pipe conveyors and belt conveying; the methods of increasing capacity, take-ups, selection of components and mechanical conveying; the reduction in maintenance on bucket, screw, drag-link and vibrating conveyers; and the elimination of feeding, discharge problems and trough conveyors. During this interactive course, participants will learn the hoppers, chutes, silos, piling and retrieving; the pneumatic conveying, line length, line diameter, pressure and vacuum; the components of blowers, rotary valves and elbows; the bin hopper design, belt, apron, screw and other feeders; the storage and flow, flow properties of materials, funnel-flow and expanded flow; the flow rate analysis, gravity reclaim and transfer chutes; the spillage and buildup; the awkward marriage of conveyer and chutes; and the problem solving of bulk materials.
