Here are some of the comments we have received this year:

Of the Dust Explosions course: The course was pitched at just the level we were looking for , and good balance between real life situations we could relate too and the class room  we needed to update ourselves on. Phil Rowan, Rowan Food Eng Ltd

Of the Biomass Handling course: The course content was excellent. Although there was a lot to take in, it was a very, very good 2 days; Trevor Harrison; Hope Construction Materials.

Of the Pneumatic Conveying course: The course was very beneficial and gave a great insight into the subject of pneumatic conveying along with an overview of the consulting capabilities the Wolfson Centre can provide. Colin McKenzie; M-I SWACO,

Of the Overview of Particulate Handling Technology course: Good course on the overview of particulate systems and technology; Kingsly Ambrose; Kansas State University
