Abstract: An apparatus and method for the pneumatic conveyance of bulk material and like products in a horizontal or inclined feed pipe which is filled with the product and is supplied with a gas along its length. The feed pipe has an elongated single chamber with an inlet and an outlet. The inlet is constructed so that the product will continuously flow into the inlet under the force of gravity. A plurality of individual percolation inlets are provided and which communicate with the lower region of the feed pipe. Each of the percolation inlets is connected to a gas supply.
