Method and apparatis for transport of fine solids including powders

A method and system for transporting and delivering fine solids in the form of powders includes a wheel-based coax control systems with individually controlled and motored wheels functioning to feed the solids. The apparatus includes a first wheel having a groove that permits powder flow. A hopper positioned above the wheel stores material to be fed to a conduit connected to the hopper thereby defining a feeding/flow path. A mixer unit is connected to the groove via a first suction head and a motor rotates the wheel, transferring powder from the hopper to the groove an into mixer unit. The method and system provide a coaxial wheel arrangement with independent material flow control.
