[Gasification] In line Mass Flow

[Tom Miles]

Mark,

 

For small system we have used the Siemens Sitrans WW100 weigh belt conveyor
(Weigh feeder)

If a flat, horizontal section of belting can be incorporated into the feed
system, simply run it across a flat plate supported by load cells ad do
snapshots of the weight of fuel on the surface area of the plate and
multiply by the amount of belt surface (per unit of time) passing across the
plate.
