Abstract. This paper presents the effect of binder feed rate addition towards ammonia gas released during urea granulation process. The as manipulated variable with few other constant parameters such pressure and temperature fluidized bed granulator. These parameters, flow NH3 emission were used to indicate function ability designated fuzzy logic. performance index this study is then defined pe...

The objective of this research was to evaluate several different pressure probe techniques used to measure the pressure fluctuations in a fluidized bed, to determine the effect of bed parameters on the power spectrums from the corresponding pressure fluctuations, and to develop a second-order model that describes the power spectrums of these pressure fluctuations. The motivation for this work i...

We report initial NMR studies of gas dynamics in a particle bed fluidized by laser-polarized xenon (129Xe) gas. We have made preliminary measurements of two important characteristics: gas exchange between the bubble and emulsion phases and the gas velocity distribution in the bed. We used T2* contrast to differentiate the bubble and emulsion phases by choosing solid particles with large magneti...

in this search drying characteristics of green pea (pisum satium) with an initial moisture content of 76% (db) was studied in a fluidized bed dryer assisted by microwave heating. four drying air temperatures (30, 40, 50 and 60ºc) and five microwave powers (180, 360, 540, 720 and 900w) were adopted. at each drying operating conditions the volume of green pea was calculated by measuring the three...

soft-sphere discrete element method (dem) and navier-stokes equations were coupled with equations of energy for gas and solids to investigate the process of agglomeration in fluidized bed of polyethylene particles at high temperature. the newton’s second law of motion was adapted for translational and rotational motion of particles and agglomerates. the cohesive force for polyethylene particles...

effluent from ro (reverse osmosis) systems during recovery gradually becomes concentrated and supersaturated with soluble salts such as calcium carbonate (caco3), calcium sulfate (caso4), barium sulfate (baso4) and silica (sio2). thus we were looking for procedures to prevent precipitation of soluble salts on the membrane surface and decrease membrane permeability. therefore, recovery could be ...
