Dilute phase pneumatic conveying, characterized by high air velocities and suspended material flow, is often considered unsuitable for abrasive materials. The conventional wisdom is that the high speeds and turbulence will cause excessive wear and tear on pipelines and components, leading to frequent maintenance, costly downtime, and premature system failure. However, advancements in materials, design, and engineering have challenged this assumption, opening up new possibilities for dilute phase conveying in heavy industries.
Delta Ducon, a leader in pneumatic conveying solutions, has been at the forefront of this innovation, demonstrating that dilute phase conveying can be a viable and efficient option for handling abrasive materials, even in demanding applications.

The Advantages of Dilute Phase for Abrasive Materials
While dense phase conveying remains a popular choice for abrasive materials, dilute phase offers several compelling advantages:
Lower capital costs: Dilute phase systems typically require less complex equipment and infrastructure compared to dense phase systems, resulting in lower initial investment costs.
Simplicity: Dilute phase systems are generally simpler to design and operate, making them easier to implement and maintain.
Versatility: Dilute phase conveying can handle a wider range of materials, including those with varying particle sizes and densities.
Efficient for shorter distances: Dilute phase systems excel in conveying materials over shorter distances, making them ideal for applications within a plant or facility.
