Emptying system

The emptying of big bags must meet the highest safety and product handling requirements. Emptying poorly pourable bulk solids and feeding them to the production process requires intelligent system solutions that are tailored to the conditions in a plant. Just like, for example, a current turnkey project in the chemical industry realised by J. Engelsmann AG, a bulk solids specialist.

The client, a leading producer of chemicals, among other things processes methacrylamide that, as a finished product, is supplied to the pharmaceutical industry and is used as binding agent in the production of medicines or thickening agent and stabiliser in the food industry. Other applications include cosmetic products such as hair spray or shampoo and washing agents, paints and adhesives. As additive for binding or thickening agents, methacrylamide, in its original form a crystalline material, tends to caking during transportation. Previously delivered in 25-kg bags by different suppliers, the methacrylamide was of differing quality with regards to caking. Only with significant manual effort and the use of lifting and conveying equipment the bags could be emptied via a bag emptying station and could be conveyed to the first processing step in a stirring tank supplied by the client where a solvent is added to dissolve the product.
