Zeolite powder is a versatile material used in catalysts, molecular sieves, adsorbents, detergents, waste gas treatment, and water purification. During storage, batching, and processing, it must be transferred safely and cleanly without dust pollution or material loss. Our pneumatic conveying solution is developed specifically for zeolite powder and provides a sealed, automatic, and flexible transfer process. It replaces manual handling and traditional mechanical conveyors, which often cause dust spillage and contamination. Every system is customized around conveying distance, capacity, particle size, moisture, and plant layout.
Each system consists of a Roots blower, rotary feeder, conveying pipeline, blow tank, cyclone separator, bag filter, receiver hopper, and PLC control cabinet. Dilute phase conveying is ideal for short or medium distances and high throughput. It suspends the powder in air and moves it through the line at a controlled velocity. Dense phase conveying is recommended for long distances or fragile particles. The material is pushed in slugs at low velocity and high pressure, which reduces pipe wear, preserves particle shape, and lowers energy consumption. Both modes can be combined in one plant to balance capacity and product care.
Zeolite powder can be abrasive and dusty, so equipment is designed for durability and safety. Pipes are available in carbon steel or stainless steel, with polished surfaces to reduce friction and prevent material accumulation. Welded joints are ground smooth to remove dead corners where powder could remain. The bag filter keeps discharged air clean, and the rotary feeder delivers a uniform feed while preventing air leakage. For moisture-sensitive powder, dry air generation and closed-loop nitrogen conveying can be supplied to protect product quality.
Compared with bucket elevators, screw conveyors, and manual transfer, pneumatic conveying is completely sealed. Fine powder will not leak into the workshop or harm operators. The pipeline can run horizontally, vertically, or around existing equipment, saving floor space and simplifying the layout. Automatic controls maintain steady feed rates and adjust air pressure and airflow, lowering labor cost and improving consistency. With fewer rotating parts than mechanical conveyors, it requires less maintenance and reduces spare parts inventory. The fully enclosed transfer also protects product quality by preventing moisture pickup, contamination, and segregation during movement.
Applications include zeolite catalyst production, molecular sieve manufacturing, detergent builder processing, wastewater treatment, soil amendment blending, and ceramic production. The system can feed extruders, granulators, dryers, and packing lines. It also supports silo-to-process, process-to-packaging, and multi-point feeding with automatic sequence control. Our engineers can design a complete solution from silo discharge to batching and mixing, including pipe bends, diverters, level sensors, weighing hoppers, and panel wiring.
As an experienced pneumatic conveying manufacturer, we provide complete customization. Before quoting, we analyze bulk density, particle size distribution, angle of repose, moisture content, abrasiveness, and explosion characteristics. We also review capacity, route, available blower or compressed air conditions, and existing control systems. After process calculation, we supply layout drawings, specifications, and instrumentation lists. Equipment can be delivered as components or a skid-mounted unit with explosion-proof motors and stainless steel filters. We provide installation guidance, commissioning, training, and after-sales support for long-term reliable operation. From initial testing to daily production, we support every stage.
