A significant amount of labor hour is being spent for clean up spent abrasives after blasting. So, for improving the efficiency of abrasive(grit) recovery process which acts as the neck of a battle in preceding coating stage, it was established the theoretical background for pneumatic transport technology in the abrasive recovery system as well as experimentally evaluated the effect of design parameters such as flow pattern, saltation velocity and pressure drop on the efficiency of the abrasive recovery system. And, by optimizing the operating parameter such as the length and diameter of suction hose, specification of recovery device, recovery mouth and hose connection method, a method which can dramatical1y increase the efficiency of abrasive recovery system, is derived.

Reduction of labor hour for cleaning up of the used abrasives after blasting. is attempted by improving the efficiency of abrasive recovery process in the protective coating of ship's block, For this purpose, the theoretical background for pneumatic transport technology in the abrasive recovery system as well as experimental evaluation on the effect of design parameters such as flow pattern, saltation velocity and pressure drop on the efficiency of the abrasive recovery system are employed . By optimizing the operating parameters such as the length and diameter of the suction hose, specification of recovery device and recovery mouth, a new method which can dramatically increase the efficiency of abrasive recovery system, is proposed.

Pneumatic transportation systems are operated most economically, if the transportation velocity is somewhat greater than the limit velocity. Therefore it is very important to find out this limit velocity. That is well known for coarse and fine particles, but not yet for long ribbon type material. In this study a formula for the mass ratio of transported material to air in limit load point is derived for ribbon type material from the pneumatic transportation theory and the model theory. A relationship for estimating the limit velocity is also found out through experiments. The possibility of the generalization of this formula, which is obtained from a given pneumatic transportation system, should be estimated through further systematic studies.
