An ejector manifold is disclosed for use in sorting of relatively small, granular particles by means of a transverse array of nozzles that selectively direct respective packets of ejecting substance, which may be gas or fluid, toward selected particles to deflect them from their normal direction of travel. The ejecting substance is communicated by means of formed in place piping. Additionally, the ejector manifold may incorporate an internal ejecting substance reservoir. In addition to sorting, the ejector manifold may be used to apply chemicals, paints or other materials to passing particles.
