Kinetics Influence of Operation Conditions on Crystal Growth of Calcium Nitrate Tetrahydrate in a Circulating Fluidized Bed

Effect of Process Variables on Growth Kinetics of Lactose Particles in a Wet Spray Fluidized Bed Granulator

Crystal Growth Kinetics of Calcite in a Dense Fluidized-Bed Crystallizer

The growth kinetics of calcite crystals are studied in a batch-fluidized-bed crystallizer, which is maintained at a constant pH. The growth experiments are conducted in the metastable region explored as part of this research. The crystal growth rates are e®aluated from the consumption rates of calcium ions, using the cured natural calcite or silica sand as seeding materials. Se®eral operation ®...

the effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)

cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...

Cluster Dynamics in a Circulating Fluidized Bed

A common hydrodynamic feature in industrial scale circulating fluidized beds is the presence of clusters. The continuous formation and destruction of clusters strongly influences particle hold-up, pressure drop, heat transfer at the wall, and mixing. In this paper fiber optic data is analyzed using discrete wavelet analysis to characterize the dynamic behavior of clusters. Five radial positions...

Experimental Investigation of the Drying Kinetics of Corn in a Packed and Fluidized Bed

In this paper, experimental data on the drying kinetics of corn in a packed and fluidized bed are presented. Experimental research was conducted on a laboratory apparatus. Corn was used as a material because of its significance in agriculture and the food industry. An analysis of the influence of the operational parameters (the drying medium velocity i. e. the flu...

critical period effects in foreign language learning:the influence of maturational state on the acquisition of reading,writing, and grammar in english as a foreign language

since the 1960s the age effects on learning both first and second language have been explored by many linguists and applied linguists (e.g lennerberg, 1967; schachter, 1996; long, 1990) and the existence of critical period for language acquisition was found to be a common ground of all these studies. in spite of some common findings, some issues about the impacts of age on acquiring a second or...
