Hi

I am looking for help/guidance on the calculating of the possiblity of pushing a slury down a 6" line approx 100m, into a tank (125m3) 12m to top.

I have upto 10 barg Nitrogen, but would like to confirm that it can be done/with less.

I have considered the like of blowcases (acid eggs), but just need help with the required equation.

I do not have info on the slurry, which is basicaly distillation residues, but if I have the equation(s) I can fill in the blanks.

Many thanks

J
