Particles are often electrostatically charged by frictional contact during powder-handling
operations. This phenomenon is called 'triboelectric charging'or 'contact electrification'. The …

Many types of techniques for metering the mass flow rate of bulk solids in a pneumatic
pipeline have been proposed and developed during the past 20 years. This paper presents …

Over the past three decades electrostatic sensors have been proposed, developed and
utilised for the continuous monitoring and measurement of a range of industrial processes …

Gas-solid fluidized beds, by their nature, are associated with intense and frequent collisions
of solid particles with each other and with the vessel wall, causing tribo-electrification …

In past decades, the electrostatics of granules and granular flows has obtained more and
more attention due to many industrial problems and the associated development of new …

The suspended dust produced in the production of process industry may cause damage to
