The Injected Density Stabilizer - CONiQ Control IDS - is our latest innovation in dense phase pneumatic conveying technology for dry, coarse, or granular powders.
CONiQ Control IDS has been designed to significantly improve efficiency in dense phase pneumatic conveying, and upgrade and replace the function of traditional, existing pipeline air injectors, density stabilizers or 'boosters'.
Traditional air boosters are located along the dense phase conveying pipe at set intervals to help fluidize the conveying material and facilitate the conveying process.
CONiQ Control IDS is a self-optimizing air technology which is set up in the same way but offers advanced ‘energy saving’ functionality and overcomes all the design and application issues which are typical challenges with traditional pipeline air injection boosters and density stabilizers.
One detergent customer had a requirement to increase their Salt raw material transfer rate from 40 tonnes per hour to 50 tons per hour.
Schenck Process proposed the CONiQ Control IDS to be retrofitted to their existing 200nb conveying line to easily achieve the 20% increase in rate. The client did not need to change any conveying pipe or the dense phase vessel.
CONiQ Control IDS technology promotes sustainability credentials and is proven to deliver substantial economic benefits through reduced pipeline blockages plus increased throughput or reduced overall energy consumption and associated costs. Clients using CONiQ Control IDS have achieved up to 40% reduction in energy consumption - lowering their energy costs - or up to 30% increase in conveying rates – resulting in increased production rates.
