Abstract

A bulk material handling method includes: a) receiving and pneumatically conveying bulk material via pressurized dilute phase, dense phase, and/or hybrid dilute/dense phase, and/or vacuum drawn conveyance into bulk material containers; b) storing the bulk material in the containers; c) dispensing the bulk material into a bulk material transporter; d) transporting the transporter to a bulk material transmitting vessel; and e) discharging the bulk material into the transmitting vessel, including releasing the bulk material from the transporter into the transmitting vessel, and pneumatically transmitting the bulk material to downstream bulk material processing equipment. A method of constructing a bulk material handling system includes pre-assembling modules of the bulk material handling system at an equipment fabricator, shipping the modules of the pre-assembled system from the fabricator to a product manufacturer using intermodal freight containers, and erecting the pre-assembled system from the modules at the product manufacturer.
