As a leader in it is field, the Wolfson Centre has strong links with industry, offering consultancy, research projects and short courses that combine technological excellence with personalised teaching. Our industrial consulting engineers have between them well over one hundred man years of experience in solving problems in the flow and processing of powders, granules and lump materials.
This wealth of knowledge has been acquired across a wide range of industries, from pharmaceuticals and food processing through recycling to mining and chemicals. Our engineers are supported by a large team of researchers, who are engaged in pushing back the boundaries of bulk solids characterisation, handling equipment design and process models.
As you will no doubt have discovered, your materials do not always behave as you want them to, causing loss of production, damage to equipment and inconsistencies in dosing through irregular discharge or flow. Through our short courses you can harness our wide knowledge and experience to identify your own bulk solids handling problems and discover the techniques that can be employed to overcome them.
