Zusammenfassung:A system (18) for repeatedly supplying a predetermined quantity of solid particulate material, e.g. solid, spherical silicon particles (92), to a location (19) remote from the area where the particulate material is stored. The system (18) includes a container (90) for storing solid particulate material (92), a receiving chamber (106) coupled with the container (90) and sized and configured to admit only a predetermined quantity of particulate material (92) from the container (90), and means (134, 136, 138) for applying at least one stream of a pressurized fluid so as to entrain and transport said predetermined quantity of particulate material (92) from the receiving chamber (106) to the remote location (19).
