Summary:The method for pneumatic transport of bulk materials (3) comprises passing it in a dense stream through a pipe (19) which it partially fills. The pipe is closed off and partially or wholly emptied by the increase in pressure. This is repeated to give a quasi-continuous flow. A portion of the material is moved forward by a conveyor screw (1). An independent claim is included for apparatus for carrying out the method.
