Introduction
Are you involved
in Transporting Solid/Liquid Mixtures in a pipe?
Do you deal
with Slurries or Sludges or Slimes or Sediments or Compacted Solids
or Suspended Solids?
The challenges
of handling solid/liquid mixtures in pipelines, in open channels,
in long distance pipeline transport and in-plant transferences occur
throughout industry. These processes provide cost-effective, economic
and efficient methods of transporting products with the minimum
of maintenance and low environmental impact.
An understanding
of how to optimise handling techniques; how different industries
have solved complex problems; trouble shooting - all demand an understanding
of the techniques required and the deployment of different engineering
solutions.
For almost 30
years, this Conference has been the premier international event
bringing together experts and users from all parts of the world
and from many diverse industries. The opportunities to discuss new
research and developments, to consider innovative new solutions
and to explore technology transfer between industries makes this
event essential for all engineers concerned with any aspect of slurry
transportation.
