The demands on safety and environmental concern in many of today’s industries are leading to a wider use  of flame arrestor vents.  These can work in two directions by preventing a flame from entering or leaving a hazardous area.

Fluidisation or activation of finely divided materials by the use of diffused air has been extensively developed during the past 50 years, particularly for the handling of powders in bulk. Fluidisation is the process of moving, transporting and treating powders and other granular materials by injection of air to make the powder act as a fluid. This means that air passes through a porous filter material where it is finely distributed and then creates a cushion or film to considerably reduce the friction between material and base. Also, the air is mixed with the material in such a way that the friction between the particles is reduced, allowing the material to flow like water.
