Abstract

A method and system for conveying material in a pneumatic material conveying system includes a material input point, a material conveying pipe connectable with a feed-in container, the system being configured to provide a pressure difference in the material conveying pipe that includes a partial-vacuum generator, and a separator device in which the transported material is separated from the transport air at an outlet end of the material conveying system. The material is conveyed in a first stage from the input point to a conveying pipe, into a container space of an intermediate container arranged between the input point and the separator device by a suction/pressure difference provided by the partial vacuum generator in a first time period, and the material conveyed into the container space of the intermediate container is conveyed by a suction/pressure difference provided by the partial-vacuum generator to the separator device.
