Technology to prevent the slurrying of bulk materials

This technology prevents the slurrying of ores, etc
that tend to go into a slurry state due to moisture adhesion,
by adding chemicals to modify their properties.

Solution Point

Reduce risks such as conveyor belt failures at mines, ports, and manufacturing establishments.
Reduce risks such as liquefaction and sinking during ocean transportation.
Reduce risks to the environmentdue to the spilling of slurry waterduring land transport.

Features 01

Problems that can be solved

In bulk materials purchased from overseas, there are some that have poor handling properties due to the depletion of high-quality mines and
increased amount of slurried materials caused by high moisture content due to enhanced environmental water sprinkling and increased rainfall
due to abnormal weather.

Features :Easy to improve handling of powder with excessive moisture.

Effects and specific examples :

	Effects	specific examples
1	Prevention of liquefaction	Prevention of liquefaction of bulk cargo due to the increased water content in slurried material (%), leading to sinking risk aversion Prevention of the flushing from the hopper
2	Reduction of adhesion	Reduction of troubles by preventing ore from falling from conveyor belts
3	Smooth discharge	Improved material discharge from the hopper (prevention of hanging) to avoid production stoppage
4	Improvement of water-holding property	Prevention of impact on surrounding environment by preventing water dripping during truck transportation

Features 02

Technology highlight

This technology prevents the slurrying of ores, etc. that tend to go into a slurry state due to moisture adhesion, by adding chemicals to modify their properties.

The polymer chains that make up the chemicals and the particles of bulk material form a cross-linked structure, preventing the slurrying of bulk material.
