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

    09 Jun 2023 | 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. Asymmetric distribution in twin screw granulation

    09 Jun 2023 | Contributor(s):: Seem, Tim Chan, Rowson, Neil A., Gabbott, Ian, de Matas, Marcel, Reynolds, Gavin K., Ingram, Andy

    Positron Emission Particle Tracking (PEPT) was successfully employed to validate measured transverse asymmetry in material distribution in the conveying zones of a Twin Screw Granulator (TSG). Flow asymmetry was established to be a property of the granulator geometry and dependent on fill level....
