Fluidising apparatus

摘要

A fluidizing apparatus includes a supply duct ( 1 ) for supplying liquid under pressure to a lower portion of a vessel ( 11 ) containing a fluidizable material. The supply duct ( 1 ) extends into the vessel. The outlet end of the apparatus includes one or more jets ( 212 ) for directing the flow of liquid into the vessel ( 11 ) substantially transversely to the major axis of the supply duct ( 1 ). An outlet duct ( 12 ) for removing the fluidized material from the vessel ( 11 ) is also included.
