    The document discusses a pneumatic transport system used to transport 900kg/hr of sand with a particle density of 2500 kg/m3 and mean particle size of 100 μm over a horizontal distance of 30 m and vertical distance of 10 m using a 78 mm diameter pipe. The system is designed to transport the sand between two points in a plant using ambient air, with six 90-degree bends and an allowable pressure loss of 0.55 bar. Key parameters given include the density and viscosity of air, as well as friction factors.

    A positive pressure dilute-phase transport system was used to
    transport 900kg/h of sand of particle density 2500 kg/m3 and
    mean particle size of 100 micron between two points in a plant
    separated by 10 m vertical distance and 30 m horizontal distance
    unsing ambient air. 78 mm inside diameter pipe was used.
    Assume that six 90 bends are required and allowable pressure
    loss is 0.55 bar
