Abstract

Bulk materials transported by belt conveyors contain a high amount of energy. This depends on the mass flow and the conveying speed. The energy content is often increased by elevation at discharge or transfer points from one conveyor to another. A significant amount of energy can be recovered at these locations due to the mass flow, conveying speed and drop height of the bulk material. A ¿Solid State Material Driven Turbine¿ has been developed by the Chair of Mining Engineering and Mineral Economics - Conveying Technology and Design Methods at the University of Leoben. This technology enables the recovery of energy which can be transferred directly to the conveyor system or, with the help of a generator, to the electrical grid. In addition, this technology offers other benefits like wear reduction and avoidance of particle size segregation. This thesis introduces this new technology and deals with these additional benefits. The work focuses on the determination of the particle size distribution using the turbine, which has not been investigated in detail in previous studies.
