This article presents a comprehensive case study of a long-distance wear-resistant pipeline pneumatic conveying project located in Yangon, Myanmar, specifically designed for the transportation of chemical powder materials. The system was engineered and implemented by a professional team specializing in pneumatic conveying solutions, ensuring efficient and reliable material handling over extended distances. The project demonstrates the application of advanced pneumatic conveying technology in a challenging industrial environment, where the need for durable pipelines and minimal material degradation is critical. As a practical example of a pneumatic conveying case, this installation in Yangon serves as a reference for similar projects in Southeast Asia. The core equipment and design philosophy focus on achieving high throughput while maintaining low energy consumption and long service life of the conveying pipeline.
The primary product category involved in this project is the pneumatic conveying system, specifically tailored for chemical powder handling in Myanmar. The system utilizes a dense-phase or dilute-phase conveying method depending on the physical properties of the powder, such as particle size, moisture content, and abrasiveness. In this case, the chemical powder is highly abrasive, requiring wear-resistant pipeline materials and specialized pipe bends to reduce erosion. The system is a typical pneumatic conveying case for Myanmar, demonstrating how local conditions like high humidity and temperature fluctuations are addressed through proper sealing and material selection. The Yangon pneumatic conveying system employs a combination of positive pressure and vacuum technology to ensure smooth material flow from the feeding point to the destination silo. This setup is particularly effective for long-distance transport, as it minimizes the risk of blockages and maintains consistent conveying velocity.
Chemical powder pneumatic conveying is a specialized field that requires careful consideration of powder rheology, explosion risks, and wear resistance. In this project, the conveyed material is a fine chemical powder with a bulk density of approximately 0.6 g/cm³ and a particle size distribution ranging from 10 to 100 microns. The system is designed to handle a conveying capacity of 5 tons per hour over a distance of 800 meters. To achieve this, a long-distance wear-resistant pipeline pneumatic conveying configuration was adopted, featuring high-chromium alloy steel pipes with a hardness of 58 HRC. The pipeline diameter is 150 mm, with a wall thickness of 10 mm to withstand the erosive effect of the powder at high velocities. The conveying air velocity is maintained between 20 and 25 m/s to balance between efficient transport and minimal pipe wear. Additionally, the system includes an air compressor with a capacity of 30 m³/min and a pressure of 6 bar, along with a bag filter for dust collection at the discharge point. The entire system is controlled by a PLC-based automation system that monitors pressure, flow rate, and material level in real time.
The long-distance wear-resistant pipeline pneumatic conveying system is a critical component of this project. The pipeline route includes several 90-degree bends and vertical sections, which are common challenges in long-distance conveying. To mitigate wear, the bends are equipped with replaceable wear-resistant inserts made of ceramic tiles. The straight sections are lined with a layer of rubber to reduce noise and vibration. The system also features a pipeline inspection port every 100 meters for easy maintenance and cleaning. The conveying distance of 800 meters is achieved by using a booster station at the midpoint, which re-pressurizes the air to maintain the required conveying velocity. This design ensures that the chemical powder is delivered consistently without segregation or degradation. The entire system is grounded to prevent static electricity buildup, which is crucial for handling flammable powders. The project was completed within a timeline of 6 months, including design, fabrication, installation, and commissioning.

The project site is located in Yangon, the largest city and former capital of Myanmar. Yangon’s industrial zone is a hub for chemical processing and manufacturing, making it an ideal location for this pneumatic conveying system. The local climate, characterized by high humidity and heavy rainfall during the monsoon season, posed additional challenges for equipment protection and material handling. The system was designed with weatherproof enclosures for electrical components and corrosion-resistant coatings for exposed pipelines. The project serves as a benchmark for future pneumatic conveying installations in Myanmar, demonstrating the feasibility of long-distance transport of abrasive powders under tropical conditions. The successful implementation of this system has reduced manual handling and improved workplace safety in the customer’s production facility. The customer reported a 30% reduction in material loss and a 20% increase in overall production efficiency after system commissioning.
