Minimum conveying velocities for various particle types

I am currently in the process of designing a dust collector. One of the first steps involves specifying the correct minimum conveying/pickup velocity at the inlet of the hood. It is to be used in the baking industry and can see anything from different flours, sugar, salt, seeds, whole buns, etc.

After a couple hours of research I’ve realized it is very difficult to find information on minimum velocities for various particles (especially in a tabulated form).

Have you by chance got a useful resource that could shed some light for these speeds pertaining to a wide array of particles?
