Air slide fabric is used for pneumatic conveying of fine dry products. It is indispensable for cement plants, coal-fired power plants, aluminum plants, fertilizer and chemical industries. Air slide fabric is a device that supports materials and allows air to evenly penetrate and fluidize materials. Therefore, the gaps in the Air slide fabric should be dense, uniform and continuous to make the material fluidized evenly to avoid the occurrence of eddy currents.
The Air slide fabric is installed at the bottom of the tank of bulk cement tank trucks, bulk fly ash trucks, bulk cement trains or bulk cement ships. The air compressor is used to pressurize the powdery and granular materials in the tank to change from a solid state to a fluid state, and the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the tank is used to unload the materials in the tank to the designated location.
Overview of the five major uses of Air slide fabric
- Power station: filtering dust, flue ash, exhaust flue ash, coal dust;
- Building and construction: cement, furnace dust, gypsum, limestone, finely ground quartz, calcium hydroxide, lead monoxide, quicklime, acid crystals, pure clay, phosphates, magnesite concentrate, finely ground fluoride, aluminum production;
- Chemical industry: rubber compounds, sintering dust, catalyst sodium sulfate, soap powder;
- Silo/tank: unloading system, warehouse unit, mixing equipment, homogenization system;
- Chute bottom: conveying system, ventilation system, aeration system.
Conclusion
Air slide fabric is mainly used in pneumatic conveying equipment of powdered and granular materials in cement industry, aluminum industry, chemical industry, metallurgy, thermal power plants and other industries, such as air chute, homogenization silo, air box pneumatic lifting pump, flow valve, bulk cement warehouse, etc.
