A system and method for continuously supplying solids from a lower pressure storage reservoir to a high pressure feeder tank for use in an application such as a blast furnace employs a high pressure variable speed solids pump. A fluidizing device discharges solids in a dense phase flow to a deaerating device for deaerating the solids flow prior to entering a variable speed high pressure solids pump. A feeder tank having an outlet is connected to the outlet of the solids pump and the feeder tank is at a higher pressure than the source of the solids. |
