The article discusses the structure and principle of operation of an improved centrifugal unit for mixing bulk materials. A special feature of which is the ability to control mixing modes. Due to its design, the selection of a rational position of the bump makes it possible to provide such conditions for the impact interaction of particle flows, in which a high-quality homogeneous mixture of components is formed, the particles of which have different sizes, shapes and other parameters. To characterize the resulting mixture, the coefficient of heterogeneity was used, the conclusion of which is based on a probabilistic approach. A computational scheme of the rarefied flow formation process is given. An expression is derived for calculating the coefficient of heterogeneity when mixing bulk media, the particles of which have different sizes, shapes and other parameters. The research conducted in the article allows not only to predict the quality of the resulting mixture, but also to identify the factors that have the greatest impact on achieving the required uniformity.

The article discusses the main methods of carbon black granulation, and compares the results with an existing industrial installation. The granulation process is necessary to convert powdered carbon black into homogeneous granules in order to simplify its further transportation and use. Despite the wide variety of granulation methods, there are problems with the uniformity of granules, equipment wear, and the formation of stagnant zones. As a result of the experiments conducted on the laboratory granulator described in the article, photos of the results are provided. Each of the methods used has a description of stagnation zones, which allows us to conclude that the most efficient method is to convert powdered carbon black into granules.

the article presents an overview of the most common ways of measuring the volume (mass) of bulk materials currently used in various industries. The comparative analysis presented in the article methods of assessment. It is established that current methods of calculating volumes of granular media have a number of disadvantages, which significantly affects the quality of the product and its value. It is revealed that it is most expedient to carry out measurement of the volume of granular media directly in the containers or the vehicle taking into account the main characteristics of the material — moisture content, bulk and true density, temperature and fractional composition.

Grinding particulate materials by means of impact is one of the most effective methods , especially when you want to obtain fine and superfine grinding . The most significant drawback - rapid and uneven wear on the blades and pneumatic organs. To solve this problem it was proposed to organize the interaction of shock . However, implementation of this method requires the establishment of methods for calculating the parameters of flow , as the incident on the bump , and ref"lected from it .
