Granulation of Urea in a Pan Granulator

Urea granulation is favored over prilling due to the problems associated with prilling. Tumbling agglomeration technique is employed in pan granulator. Product with wide size range can be produced by playing with only few parameters like binders (water and urea solution), ratio of binders, rpm of pan, granulation time and angle of inclination. Urea granulation is studied at laboratory scale usi...

Swarm Granulator

This paper describes a Swarm Granulator, a new application of particle swarms to sound synthesis. Granulation, an established technique in sound synthesis, depends on many parameters which are non-intuitive and hard to control from a human perspective. It is proposed here that a particle swarm can organize these parameters and produce musically interesting and novel timbres. A crucial element o...

Granulation Time in Fluidized Bed Granulators

Size enlargement of fine powders by wet granulation involves mixing of fine particles with a binder liquid to form larger wet granules and drying them by evaporation of the binder liquid to form larger dry granules. Identification of the time for completion of granulation process is critical as further mixing of dry granules is providing extra energy for their attrition. In a batch fluidized be...
