The handling and the storage of bulk materials represent a large proportion of all industrial activities, in particular because there is a great- variety of bulk materials and because these are handled in extremely different branches by means of equipment and methods which are also extremely different.
For a general description of bulk materials applicable to the greatest possible number of handling processes - such as mechanical handling, pneumatic handling, storage in silos, etc. - it is advisable to use, to define and to quantify with characteristics values only the properties which are revealing, which can be used and/or are necessary or useful for all handling processes.
