  1. Investigation of the effect of impeller rotation rate, powder flow rate, and cohesion on powder flow behavior in a continuous blender using PEPT

    Contributor(s):: Portillo, PM, Vanarase, AU, Ingram, A, Seville, JK, Ierapetritou, MG, Muzzio, FJ

    In this paper, we examine the movement of particles within a continuous powder mixer using PEPT (Positron Emission Particle Tracking). The benefit of the approach is that the particle movement along the vessel can be measured non-invasively. The effect of impeller rotation rate, powder flow rate,...

  2. Analysis of powder phenomena inside a Fette 3090 feed frame using in-line NIR spectroscopy

    Contributor(s):: Mateo-Ortiz Daniel, Colon, Yleana, Romañach, Rodolfo, Mendez, Rafael

    New analytical methods are needed to understand and optimize the processes by which tablets are produced. Fette 3090 tablet presses are commonly used in the pharmaceutical industry. A near-infrared (NIR) probe was installed into a Fette 3090 feed frame to understand and monitor the die filling...
