Abstract
An atomizer for atomizing a high solids soil paste containing pebbles or agglomerates includes an inner conduit for channeling the paste and an outer conduit surrounding the inner conduit whereby the outer conduit and the inner conduit define an annular space therebetween in which a flow of compressed air is channeled in the space. The inner conduit and the outer conduit have a discharge end which is connected to a discharge spraying head made of a wear-resistant and a high temperature-resistant material such as tungsten carbide. The spraying head has three walls which accommodate a flow plate which is connected at the top of the first wall and third wall for defining a rectangular opening of the spraying head. The flow plate has two air passages cut therethrough, which are also rectangular, which channel air from the annular space into the spraying head for dispersing the soil paste into an atomized spray which is discharged out of the opening.
