Online Kurze Kurs: Caking and Lump Formation in Powders, Bulk Solids

Consultancy, Research and Training (Short Courses) for the bulk materials handling industry. Independent expertise and cost-effective solutions to industrial problems. Our Mission: To help industry to get it’s powders and bulk materials to behave in the way they need them to. 2024 marked 50 years of service to the bulk solids handling industry. We shall continue to help Industry solve its bulk materials handling issues.

An on-line course over 2 morning sessions covering the causes of lump formation and hardening of powders and bulk materials in storage, and the techniques used to predict and solve these problems. It is designed for engineers, plant managers, skilled operatives, maintenance and equipment manufacturers handling powders and bulk materials. Course fees are £500 per delegate. This course is also available as an In-Company course. [**NOTE**Auf Deutsch**Der Kurs wird online auf Englisch abgehalten.
