A mixing silo for bulk material comprises a silo container, a mixing installation mounted in the silo container for mixing the bulk material, at least one shut-off element for shutting off the mixing installation, wherein the mixing silo has a minimum extraction rate and the silo container, with the mixing installation shut off, has a residual cross-sectional area which ensures a mass flow of the bulk material that is greater than or equal to the minimum extraction rate of the mixing silo.

An injector head for delivering particulate material from a feeder source to a receiver is fitted with a plurality of splitter bars extending generally laterally from the sidewalls thereof into the space through which particulate material is fed as it flows into a receiver. Spray nozzles mounted to said sidewalls below said splitter bars spray coating material generally laterally relative to said sidewalls and generally laterally relative to the length of said splitter bars so as to coat particulate material as it passes over and to the sides and ends of said splitter bars.

A solid material mixer for mixing two or more solid materials does not require the use of external power sources and moving parts. The mixer includes at least a first chamber or tank, at least one second chamber or tank, one or more main valves and one or more mixing and homogenizing zones. The device is used in a mixing method.

The present invention relates to an equipment and method for producing polymer pellets which comprise one or more polymer components and one or more further components, wherein in said process at least one of said one or more further components is incorporated into pellets by applying a liquid, which comprises said at least one component, onto said pellets.

The present invention relates to an apparatus, preferably a press, comprising a cavity which is to be filled and at least a first material feed, for a first material, and a second material feed, for a second material, wherein the first and the second material feeds are arranged separately from one another, having a feeding apparatus for feeding the first and the second materials into the cavity which is to be filled, wherein the feeding apparatus has a mouth-opening cross section with at least a first region of the mouth-opening cross section for the first material, and with a second, separate region of the mouth-opening cross section for the second material, for filling the cavity preferably in parallel, and at separate locations. A method and also a blank are proposed in addition.

The present invention relates to an equipment and method for producing polymer pellets which comprise one or more polymer components and one or more further components, wherein in said process at least one of said one or more further components is incorporated into pellets by applying a liquid, which comprises said at least one component, onto said pellets.

The invention relates to an apparatus, system, and method for the bulk blending of dry component materials to produce a blended product mix. The apparatus utilizes a special construction that allows multiple bulk dry materials to be added simultaneously to create a blended mix compliant with a desired or specified mixture of cement components. The system is automated by use of a controller, and provides real-time data to a user as to rates and amounts of materials blended and delivered over time.

The present invention relates to an equipment and method for producing polymer pellets which comprise one or more polymer components and one or more further components, wherein in said process at least one of said one or more further components is incorporated into pellets by applying a liquid, which comprises said at least one component, onto said pellets.

A processing vessel (1) provided with a material inlet (2, 3, 4, 5) and a processed material outlet (25) wherein the material flows continuously through the vessel which is split into a series of zones (6, 7, 8) through which the material passes wherein the zones are shielded from each other by controlling the rate at which the material flows and an increasing level of vacuum is applied inconsecutive zones and the system is provided with acoustic energy which imparts energy to the process material by virtue of the contact between the zone dividers and the process material and processing material in such a vessel.

A silo for storing bulk material, the silo comprising: a container defining an inner space, at least one supply opening for receiving bulk material, an insert located in said inner space, the insert having the shape of a capped cone, the bottom rim of the insert being mechanically coupled to the inner surface of the container, the insert having one or more openings, along its bottom rim for allowing bulk material to pass from the upper inner space to the lower inner space, a first group of discharge openings near or at the lower side of the container in the surface of the container for discharging bulk material from the lower inner space, the top rim is provided with a second group of discharge openings comprising at least one discharge opening for discharging bulk material from the upper inner space, a recirculation system coupled to the discharge openings of one of the first and second group of discharge openings, for transporting bulk material from said discharge openings to said supply opening, and an extraction system being coupled to the discharge openings of the other of the first and second group of discharge openings for extracting bulk material towards the exterior of the silo.
