Optimizing the Internal Conveying Systems in Cereal Mills

Abstract

This paper underscores the importance of the internal conveying systems for the optimal operation of the technological equipment, the hygienically sanitary restrictions as well as the environmental protection. The authors demonstrate that the use of the airflow conveyance is in line with the European requirements, but requires at the same time huge special energy consumption. Through the utilization, if possible, of the mechanical conveying systems which lead to a decrease of these consumptions and implicitly of the conversions costs. All researches keep sight of the mill production capacity, the flow sheet organization (horizontally or vertically), the technological characteristics of the equipment, etc.
