Pneumatic conveying may be described as the mechanics of moving products or materials through an enclosed pipeline in a stream of air or gas. The greatest application of pneumatic conveyors is in the handling of commercially dry, powdered or pelleted materials. Many other types of materials such as flake and chip or stringy materials can be handled by the same basic technique when the systems are supplied with certain specialized equipment.
