For transport of granulate from a granulation tank by means of liquid and air, an ejector is provided with a side inlet for granulate, a first end with a spray nozzle for pressurized transport liquid, and a second end with an inlet for pressurized gas. Downstream from the second end, an outlet spray nozzle for a three-phase flow of liquid, granulate, and gas is provided. A first conduit has a lower end connected with the outlet for transport of the three-phase flow. The ejector includes a tubular ejector housing with an internal wear liner and an outlet spray nozzle made from a durable material. The inlet for pressurized gas includes a ring-shaped chamber that surrounds the periphery of the ejector and is connected with the inside of the ejector through a ring-shaped slit that directs the pressurized gas towards the outlet of the ejector.
A procedure for output of granulate from the bottom of a tank that besides granulate contains liquid, wherein the output is achieved by a tubular ejector under the tank, the pressurized transport liquid is sprayed through a spray nozzle into and through the ejector while pulling along precipitating granulate from the tank into the ejector and that pressurized gas is sprayed into the granulate mixture before it leaves the ejector.
