Turkey Bursa Rubber & Plastic Additive Silo Arch Breaking Pneumatic Conveying System Case Study

In the heart of Bursa, Turkey – a major industrial hub for the rubber and plastic compounding industry – a state-of-the-art pneumatic conveying system has been successfully deployed to solve a persistent challenge: material bridging and arching in storage silos. This project, delivered by Shandong Haide Powder Engineering Co., Ltd. (abbreviated as Haide Powder), demonstrates an integrated solution for handling fine, cohesive rubber and plastic additives. The system combines a reliable pneumatic conveying line with an innovative silo arch breaking mechanism, ensuring uninterrupted material flow and precise dosing for downstream production.

Project Background: The Challenge of Rubber & Plastic Additive Handling

Rubber and plastic additives, such as carbon black, calcium carbonate, stearic acid, and various stabilizers, are notoriously difficult to convey pneumatically due to their high cohesiveness, low bulk density, and tendency to agglomerate. In a prominent Bursa-based compounding plant, operators faced frequent blockages and arch formation inside the storage silos. These issues led to production stoppages, manual intervention, and inconsistent feed rates. The client required a robust pneumatic conveying system that could handle up to 5 tons per hour of mixed additives while eliminating the risk of silo bridging. This is where the Turkey pneumatic conveying expertise of Haide Powder came into play.

Solution: Customized Pneumatic Conveying with Silo Arch Breaking

After a thorough site assessment in Bursa, Haide Powder engineered a dilute-phase pneumatic conveying system specifically tailored for the abrasiveness and stickiness of the materials. The system features a positive displacement blower, a rotary airlock feeder, and a dedicated pipeline layout that minimizes pressure drop and material degradation. The key innovation, however, is the integrated silo arch breaking pneumatic conveying subsystem. Installed at the bottom of each silo, a set of strategically positioned air cannons and fluidizing pads activate in sequence to break any potential arches before they can form. This ensures that the additives flow freely into the conveying line without any bridging. The entire system is controlled by a PLC that monitors silo level, pressure, and flow rate, automatically triggering the arch breakers when needed.

Key Features of the Bursa Pneumatic Conveying Installation

One of the standout features of this Bursa pneumatic conveying project is the use of wear-resistant bends and pipe sections, given the erosive nature of the additives. The material is conveyed from the silos to a central receiving hopper, then distributed to multiple mixing stations via a diverter valve network. The silo arch breaking mechanism is fully pneumatic, requiring no electricity inside the silo – a critical safety advantage when handling combustible dusts. Furthermore, the system includes a baghouse filter for dust collection, maintaining a clean working environment. The total conveying distance is approximately 120 meters, with a vertical lift of 15 meters, all achieved without any material separation or clogging. The system operates at a conveying velocity of 18-22 m/s, optimized for the specific particle size distribution of the rubber and plastic additives.

Results: Improved Efficiency and Reliability

Since the installation of this rubber and plastic additive pneumatic conveying system with silo arch breaking capability, the Bursa plant has reported a 40% reduction in downtime related to material handling. The consistent feed rate has improved product quality, and the need for manual hammering or rodding of silos has been completely eliminated. The client also noted a significant reduction in material waste and dust emissions. The system's ability to handle multiple additive types without cross-contamination has made it an indispensable part of the production line. This case study is a prime example of how Haide Powder's expertise in pneumatic conveying and silo arch breaking can solve real-world industrial challenges in Turkey and beyond.
