Systems for the transport of activated carbon
Activated carbon, in powder or granule form, is a lightweight, volatile and potentially explosive material that requires airtight, antistatic and easily inspectable systems.
HIWAY designs high-seal mechanical and aero-mechanical conveyors, ideal for containing fine powders, avoiding dispersion and operating in ATEX-certified environments.
Each system is configured to guarantee safety, precision and operational continuity, even in the most sensitive processes.

Application case
HiWay system for the automatic handling of activated carbon
The mobile big-bag emptying unit is equipped with a TVE aero-mechanical conveyor fitted with a telescopic flexible tube, which allows practical, fast and adaptable truck loading based on different operational needs.
- Ø Tube: / mm
- Motorisation: 2.2 kW
- Capacity: 6 m³/h
- Material density: 1 Kg/dm³
The manual doors allow the big bag to be inserted
safely and the station to be closed again, ensuring
greater protection during operations.
Thanks to an access ladder, the operator can easily
reach the barrel area and open the big bag “caramella”,
initiating the emptying of the material.
An integrated vibrating screen sieves the material, removing
pieces that are too large before they are introduced into the
conveyor, thus improving the quality and uniformity of
the loaded product.
Once sieved by the vibrating screen, the product is transferred to
the TVE conveyor which, through the telescopic tube and a
dedicated nozzle, ensures efficient, safe and uniform truck loading.
