Abstract

An enclosed particular dry product is conveyed through a conduit by a gaseous fluid formed by a vacuum blower. Metered hoppers feed the product into the conduit. A cyclone removes the product from the fluid and conveys the same to a separating screen. The desired size product is recovered and passed through a flexible sock to minimize breakage and loaded into a vessel. The undesired size is fluid conveyed to a recovery receptacle.
