   The drying capacity of a continuous vibrated fluid bed dryer was studied using a DoE by varying microcrystalline cellulose content in the formulation, water amount in the twin-screw granulation, inlet air temperature, air flow rate and the acceleration of the horizontal fluid-bed....

   Wet granulation lines in pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities typically comprise a dryer that removes the excess moisture content after wet granulation. In this study, a semi-continuous dryer installed in the ConsiGma 25 wet granulation line was investigated. The goal was to highlight specific...

3. Breakage and drying behaviour of granules in a continuous fluid bed dryer: Influence of process parameters and wet granule transfer

   | Contributor(s):: De Leersnyder, F., Vanhoorne, V., Bekaert, H., Vercruysse, J., Ghijs, M., Bostijn, N., Verstraeten, M., Cappuyns, P., Van Assche, I., Vander Heyden, Y., Ziemons, E., Remon, J. P., Nopens, I., Vervaet, C., De Beer, T.

   Although twin screw granulation has already been widely studied in recent years, only few studies addressed the subsequent continuous drying which is required after wet granulation and still suffers from a lack of detailed understanding. The latter is important for optimisation and control and,...
