    The Free Power of Gravity

    FLSmidths Airslide Air Gravity Conveying System uses the forces of gravity to do most of the work without any moving parts. Material is fluidized through a porous media with low pressure air. Material flow is achieved by sloping the Airslide conveyor to match the fluidized angle of repose of the powdered material. At the correct slope, fluidized materials flow with the consistency of a liquid.

    Airslide Air Gravity systems provide high-capacity material handling while offering many economical and environmental advantages. Energy requirements are minimal because only a small volume of air at a low pressure is required to move material. Since the system is installed overhead, valuable floor space and added headroom are available for other purposes. By eliminating the need for massive support members, it permits a flexibility of plant design not available with straight-line conveyors.The Airslide conveyor is dust tight. As a result, the system is extremely friendly to the environment.

    Noise level is extremely low in the area surrounding the Airslide conveyor as the systems air supply is the only moving part to generate noise, and it is generally located in a remotely insulated area to further reduce noise.Maintenance of the Airslide conveyor is very simple because there are no moving parts other than the air supply equipment, which also contributes to increased plant safety. Airslide conveyors require no lubrication.

    Typical Airslide Conveyor ApplicationsDistribution from bucket elevators to storage silosGathering under baghouses / precipitatorsFeed to processFeed to other conveyorsLoadout from bulk silos to trucks, railcars or bargesIn-plant conveyingStorage silo / bin withdrawal

    The Principle of Fluidization: Driving low-pressure, low-velocity air through and between particles of a dry bulk material, changing its behavior characteristics and making it flow more like a liquid than a solid

    All fly ash has a natural angle of repose, often in excess of 45 degrees.

    Airslide System Recirculation: SO2 Mitigation - Circulating Dry ScrubbersFor pebble lime and limestone (unloading, conveying and injection)Most new plants will be designed with some form of SO2 mitigation in the form of wet or dry scrubbers.

    Such scrubbers are also being retrofitted on existing plants for (a) environmental compliance and (b) to allow for the switch to less expensive high sulphur coals.

    Standard FLSmidth Airslide systems can be employed for all of these lime-based handling applications. Specialized circulating dry scrubbers (CDS) all employ FLSmidth Airslide technology.
