Bulk solids handling is prevalent in almost every industry, including mining, agriculture, chemical, and pharmaceutical sectors. In fact, more than 70% of manufactured products involve bulk solids handling at some stage, whether as raw materials, intermediates, or final products. Unfortunately, bulk solids handling is rarely taught at the university level, leaving process engineers in the dark about the importance of achieving reliable solids flow.

Crushing and screening of solids are essential to many solids-handling processes, but engineers must be mindful about how those actions will affect flow behavior of the bulk material When it comes to processing bulk solids, (particle) size matters. Almost all industries rely on some sort of particle-size control within their processes, whether it is comminution (reduction of particle size by crushing, grinding or milling) or screening (separating materials based on particle size).
It is commonly said that more than 70% of manufactured products in the world involve a bulk solid material at some point during the manufacturing process, either as a raw material or as an intermediate or final product. However, proper design of bulk solids handling and processing equipment is rarely covered in engineering courses, leaving process engineers struggling to understand how to achieve efficient, safe and reliable flow of these materials.
