Pneumatic Waste Transport Calculator
Sizes an automated vacuum waste collection system, where waste travels through pipes by air to a central station. It works from the building type and waste figures to the pipe, blower and container sizes.
- The daily waste load.
- Airflow and pressure drop in the pipe network.
- Blower power and the energy of each collection cycle.
- Container volume and the number of collection cycles a day.
- Follows: Pneumatic conveying design methods, with editable planning defaults.
- The waste figures are placeholders to replace with a waste audit for the project. Infectious, sharp and hazardous healthcare waste must never go into the system.
