007 Storage of Solids – Piles, Bins, Silos and Hoppers

Welcome to Mechanical Operations – Unit I: Properties and Handling of Particulate Solids. This video lecture covers the fundamental principles of #MechanicalOperations and the characterization, storage, handling, and transportation of particulate materials encountered in chemical and process industries. The topics include #ParticulateSolids, #ParticleCharacterization, #ParticleSize, #ParticleSizeDistribution, #DifferentialAnalysis, #CumulativeAnalysis, #ParticleSizeAnalysis, #SolidStorage, #BulkStorage, #StorageOfSolids, #BulkSolidsHandling, #FlowOfSolids, #FlowOutOfBins, #Hoppers, #Bins, #PowderFlow, #Agglomeration, #AgglomerationTechniques, #ParticleAgglomeration, #SolidTransportation, and #TransportationOfSolids. This lecture is designed to help undergraduate Chemical Engineering students understand the behaviour of particulate solids and their importance in industrial operations. The content is useful for #BTechChemicalEngineering, #ChemicalEngineeringStudents, #ChemicalEngineeringLectures, #UnitOperations, #GATEChemicalEngineering, and #ChemicalEngineeringEducation.
