Subjects: Industrial applications, Chemical industry, Safety, Pharmaceutical powders, Flexible packaging, Unitized cargo systems, Automation
Abstract: The article by Tim Bowser delves into the industrial use of Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) for transporting flowable solid materials in various industries. It covers the applications and benefits of different types of IBCs, such as rigid and flexible ones, with a focus on industries like industrial, chemical, building, construction, and food and beverage. The document also explores topics like IBC configurations, handling, liners, automation, safety measures, and testing requirements, as well as pharmaceutical powder flow, discharge, electrostatic hazards, and temperature/humidity conditions in stacked containers. Bowser, a professional engineer specializing in food processing and engineering, provides valuable insights and research on the subject. [Extracted from the article]
