Ammonium chloride granules are widely used in agriculture, food processing, metallurgy, and battery manufacturing. They are crystalline and free-flowing under dry conditions, but slightly hygroscopic and prone to caking when exposed to moisture. A pneumatic conveying system for ammonium chloride granules must therefore control humidity, minimize particle breakage, and prevent product build-up in pipelines. A well-engineered solution provides enclosed transport, flexible routing, reduced manual handling, and consistent material flow from storage silo to process equipment.

Our custom pneumatic conveying solution is developed around the unique characteristics of ammonium chloride granules. The system uses a positive pressure or vacuum conveying line with carefully selected air velocity. In dilute phase conveying, granules are suspended in high-velocity air, making it suitable for low-capacity transfer over short or medium distances. In dense phase conveying, granules are pushed as a plug through the pipeline at low velocity, which greatly reduces attrition and degradation. For granules that need very low degradation, dense phase is often the preferred choice. Both systems can be equipped with a variable frequency drive to adjust conveying speed and energy consumption.

The main equipment includes a rotary valve, Roots blower, filter receiver, pipeline, diverting valves, and an automated control panel. The rotary valve feeds granules uniformly into the conveying line without air leakage. The Roots blower provides a stable compressed air supply, and an air dryer removes moisture to keep the granules dry. A dust collector or filter receiver separates granules from the conveying air at the discharge point, preventing dust emission and product loss. All contact parts are made of stainless steel or other corrosion-resistant materials to withstand the mildly corrosive nature of ammonium chloride.

Every conveying scheme is customized according to site conditions, capacity requirement, conveying distance, and existing process layout. Our engineers evaluate bulk density, particle size distribution, angle of repose, moisture content, and abrasiveness before selecting the conveying mode. Pipe diameter, air volume, air pressure, and bend radius are calculated using validated engineering formulas and simulation tools. This ensures stable conveying, low energy consumption, and reliable operation under continuous production conditions.

The key advantages of our pneumatic conveying system are high efficiency, dust-free operation, low material degradation, and flexible layout. The closed pipeline fully protects the granules from outside contamination and prevents harmful dust from escaping. Because the system is fully automated, it reduces labor costs and eliminates inconsistent manual feeding. Stainless steel construction and corrosion-resistant seals extend service life and reduce maintenance downtime. The system can also be integrated with bagging machines, mixers, storage silos, and downstream equipment.

This ammonium chloride granule conveying solution is widely applied in compound fertilizer production, powder metallurgy, galvanizing flux preparation, and chemical processing plants. It is also used for rubber additives, dye intermediates, and water treatment chemicals. The system can handle capacities from 1 to 30 tons per hour, with conveying distances up to 200 meters and multiple discharge points. For outdoor installations, weatherproof enclosures and heating tracing are available to prevent moisture condensation. All equipment can be designed to meet customer-specific voltage and control standards.

Safety is a critical part of the system design. The pipeline is grounded to prevent static electricity, and the dust collection unit prevents dust accumulation in the workplace. All access doors and inspection ports are equipped with safety interlocks. The control system includes pressure sensors, flow monitoring, and alarm functions. Our team provides complete engineering documentation, installation supervision, commissioning, and operator training. We also offer spare parts and technical support throughout the equipment life cycle.

Choosing the right ammonium chloride granule conveying system is essential to maintain product quality and production efficiency. Our custom solution combines corrosion-resistant materials, precise flow control, and dust-free pneumatic transport to meet high industrial standards.
