Pneumatic conveying solution for titanium dioxide
During the production and processing of titanium dioxide, many enterprises face issues such as dust dispersion, material blockages, and high energy consumption during transportation. Powder transport often poses environmental and occupational health risks, and traditional mechanical conveying equipment requires frequent maintenance, affecting production line continuity. Moreover, different processes have varying requirements for conveying distance, lifting height, gas-solid ratio, and other factors, making standardized equipment often difficult to meet customized needs.
Material Characteristic Analysis

Titanium dioxide (TiO₂) is an ultrafine powder, usually with particle sizes typically between 0.1~1 microns. It has strong adsorption, high dispersibility, easy agglomeration, and slight adhesion. Its bulk density is about 0.5~0.8 g/cm³, with a large angle of rest, which easily causes "mouse holes" or bridge erection phenomena during pneumatic conveying; At the same time, the powder is generally abrasive to the pipe wall, so attention must be paid to matching the flow rate with the pipe material. In addition, titanium dioxide is mostly hydrophilic and tends to clump in humid environments, so there are clear requirements for the sealing and drying capacity of the conveying system.
Product Introduction

The titanium dioxide pneumatic conveying system launched by Head Powder is a sealed conveying solution specially designed for the powder industry. The system uses positive pressure dilute phase or dense phase conveying technology, using compressed air as the power source to smoothly transport titanium dioxide from the feed port to the storage silo or process equipment. The complete solution includes a feeding device (rotary valve/ejector), conveying pipelines, dust separation and removal, and automatic control system. It can be customized non-standard according to the customer's site layout, conveying distance, processing volume, and other parameters. The main body of the equipment is made of wear-resistant stainless steel, with key components surface treated to extend service life and prevent material contamination.
Product advantages

To address customer concerns such as dust leakage, blockages, shutdowns, and high operating costs, Head Powder's titanium dioxide pneumatic conveying solution offers the following solutions:
- Fully sealed conveying: The system operates fully pipelined, with no open sections, effectively controlling dust leakage and meeting environmental protection and occupational health requirements.
- Anti-blocking design: Uses fluidized gas replenishment devices and a reasonable bend radius to reduce the risk of material accumulation at corners; Adding arch-breaking equipment at the unloading point of easy-erection bridges.
- Energy saving and low wear: By accurately controlling gas velocity and solid-gas ratio, it improves conveying efficiency while reducing pipeline wear and energy consumption, lowering energy consumption per ton of product by 15%~25% compared to traditional mechanical methods.
- Customized adaptation: For different working conditions such as moisture content, particle size distribution, and conveying distance, it offers multiple combination modes such as dilute/dense phase and positive pressure/negative pressure, and can integrate front-end processes such as metering, batching, and iron removal.
