This pneumatic conveying solution is designed for vanadium electrolyte solid powder materials, including vanadium pentoxide, ammonium metavanadate, vanadium trioxide, and other fine or granular vanadium compounds. The system transfers powder from storage silos, bag dump stations, and hoppers to reactors, mixers, weighing hoppers, and dissolving tanks in a fully enclosed pipeline, reducing dust, material loss, and manual handling.
Vanadium electrolyte solid powder is often fine, light, hygroscopic, abrasive, or easy to agglomerate. Traditional conveyors may cause dust leakage, material accumulation, and unstable feeding. Our conveying scheme is based on actual bulk density, particle size distribution, moisture content, fluidization characteristics, and flow behavior. We select dense-phase or dilute-phase conveying, positive or negative pressure, pipe diameter, air velocity, and air volume to prevent blockage and material degradation.
The complete conveying system usually includes a roots blower or screw compressor, air drying and filtration unit, rotary feeder, pneumatic pipeline, booster valves, receiving hopper, bag filter, control panel, and optional weighing and batching modules. Contact parts are made of stainless steel or anti-wear lined steel to resist corrosion and abrasion. The pipeline layout is optimized to reduce bends, pressure loss, and maintenance difficulty while allowing future expansion.
In a typical vanadium electrolyte plant, powder is first discharged from a bagging station or silo into a feed hopper. A rotary valve or screw feeder meters it into the conveying line, and compressed air carries it to the target equipment. At the receiving end, a cyclone separator or bag filter separates powder from air, and powder falls into a weighing hopper or process tank. The system supports multiple feeding and discharge points and can be integrated with PLC, HMI, and DCS systems for centralized monitoring.
The key advantages are high sealing, stable feeding, low energy consumption, and minimal material waste. Because the conveying process is fully enclosed, toxic or fine dust cannot escape, protecting workers and keeping the plant clean. The system reduces manual labor and batch variation, while accurate feeding improves consistency of vanadium electrolyte composition, which is critical to battery performance. Compared with manual transfer, it can reduce material loss and maintenance cost significantly.
Customization is the core of our service. Every vanadium electrolyte production line has different capacity, process flow, and site conditions. Our engineers design the conveying scheme according to raw material characteristics, required throughput, conveying distance, elevation difference, and available space. We provide a complete solution from powder receiving and storage to metering and reactor feeding, and support system expansion, control upgrades, and on-site installation guidance.
For safety, the system can be equipped with pressure relief devices, explosion-proof electrical components, inert gas protection, interlock control, and alarm functions. If the vanadium powder is explosive or toxic, the conveying gas can be nitrogen or another inert gas instead of air. The filter and dust collector prevent dust from entering the atmosphere. The control system detects abnormal pressure, temperature, and flow in real time, stops the feeding source, and activates an alarm when necessary. The pipeline is designed for easy cleaning and inspection.
We provide full technical support, including material testing, process design, equipment manufacturing, installation, and after-sales service. Our team is experienced in vanadium electrolyte and new energy industries. This solution improves raw material utilization, ensures stable electrolyte quality, reduces pollution, and creates a safer, more efficient production environment.
