ABSTRACT:
A system for transporting and unloading dry chemicals in a container including a removable bulk head and a liner. The bulk head has a top and a bottom. The bulk head is tilted when installed in the container such that the top of the bulk head is at the back of the container and the bottom of the bulk head is recessed into the container. The bulk head has an opening at a bottom center portion thereof. The liner has an opening and fits within the container. The liner has a funnel extension fitting through the opening in the bulk head. The funnel extension has a diameter which decreases toward the opening in the liner, with increasing distance from the bulk head. The funnel extension extends across substantially the entire width of the container. The container has a height, and the removable bulk head has a length extending between the top and the bottom, which length is greater than the height of the container. The system also has an adapter which attaches to the liner. The adapter has a hollow main body having an input and an output and a hollow interior. The opening in the liner fits inside the input of the main body. The adapter has an access door attached to the main body between the input and the output for allowing access to the interior of the main body.
