16-19 March: Bulk Materials Handling Workshop Week
Join our series of workshops to gain first-hand experience of different test processes available with equipment in our on-site pilot plant At the Wolfson Centre for Bulk Solids Handling Technology, we use many different processes and pieces of specialist equipment to characterise and test powders and particulates to identify why issues occur in their handling, storage and flow. Testing of particle strength, size, wear, flowability, dustiness, to name a few, can all be undertaken in our pilot plant. Some of this equipment is not available anywhere else in the world.
Our experts will be on hand to demonstrate and guide attendees through the various sessions so that, by the end of each workshop, delegates will be armed with the knowledge to identify ways in which to prevent flow and handling issues occurring.
