Abstract

The pneumatic handling of Primary Alumina, Secondary Alumina as well as Crushed Bath, Anode cover material and Fluoride (AlF3) is very challenging, caused by the very different and extreme bulk characteristics. Large capacity storage facilities as well as huge transport capacities over long conveying distances are required at the harbor areas and the smelter plants all over the world. The most important State-of-the-Art technologies and components are shown and described in this chapter. The right selection of a competitive system for a smooth and highest reliable pneumatic handling of the different bulk materials is our daily challenging business. Long term experiences and a strong performance are the keys for satisfied clients worldwide, our best partners since decades. The selected references are taken from the list of hundreds of plants worldwide.
