The Storage and Recovery of Particulate Solids. Edited by J_ C RICHARDS.Institution of Chemical Engineers, London, 1966. 182 pp_ Price f2.2.0. The field of storage and recovery of particulate solids is a wide one and the information which exists is fra_mented and spread throughout a whole range of publications. In 1963 the Institution of Chemical Engineers set up a Working. Party to consider the subject. Recently the Inst%ution has published the Working Party’s report. The report summarises the available knowledge, so that information on a particular aspect of solids handling is easily found. In most cases the information is not complete. but as research has not been carried out to fill the gaps, this is in no way a criticism of the report. The first chapter gives a general account of the state of the art of solids handling ; the second chapter is devoted to defining terms, and the remaining chapters discuss particu!ar aspects of solids handling. To facilitate the use of these sections for reference purposes a similar approach in each has been adopted as far as possible. This consists of discussing the nature of the problem, giving a brief account of the published work or. in the case of equipment, development of types; a list of work in progress; comments on the adequacy of existing knowledge, and an outline of problems which might form suitable subjects for research or development_ The main topic of the book, the storage and
recovery of particulate solids, has been divided into five parts; feed and control of bulk solids, descriptions of powders, effect of external conditions on bulk solids, bulk solids in motion. and bunker design For feeders a brief description of each type is given, along with performance limitations. Some information on the instrumentation of feeders is also given. The author particularly emphasizes the difficulties encountered in obtaining performance figures on a wide range of machines without trial on a large scale, and, in view of the cost of the equipment and the need for large-scale material movement for testing, he feels that it is unlikely that research departments will find it feasible to do such work. A general description of methods of measurement of particle size and shape. surface properties, packing densities, and flow properties is given. The author of this section states that little progress has been made in deriving quantitative descriptions of the features of surfaces, particularly of the smallest particles, and relating them to the bulk properties_ Consequently, the designer of storage and recovery systems has still to rely on quantitative assessments and empirical determinations of the behaviour of any particular bulk solid. The effects which can occur when a solid is stored in bulk are then discussed ; they include agglomeration, particle crushing, changes in moisture content, change of flow properties, chemical changes and Powder TerhnoL l(1967)
