This report provides an introductory overview on the subject of freight transportation by pipeline. Emphasis has been placed on the ease with which non-technical people could read and understand the essentials. This results in a non-analytic presentation of the qualitative rather than quantitative characteristics of freight pipeline. The material presented is based on a number of technical papers and analytical studies which are representative of the present state-of-the-art in freight pipeline technology. This report provides a brief introduction to the subject of freight transportation by pipelines, then describes the major generic classes of freight pipeline (pneumatic, slurry, pneumatic-capsule, and hydraulic-capsule), then briefly discusses future prospects.
