Abstract:
A method of and a system for conveying a feed of lumpy high adhesion solids in a solids refinement plant such as a minerals processing plant, a cement plant or a materials handling facility. The method comprises the steps of conveying a stream of conveyable volumes of lumpy high adhesion solids; applying a low adhesion solids onto the surface of the conveyable volumes of lumpy high adhesion solids thereby forming conveyable volumes of lumpy high adhesion solids having a low adhesion protecting layer on the surface from adhesion of low adhesion solids to the surface of the lumpy high adhesion solids, and thereafter conveying said conveyable volumes of high conveyable volumes of lumpy high adhesion solids having a low adhesion protecting layer on the surface.
