Fluidized beds comprise assemblies of solid particles that are rendered fluid‐like by the upward flow of a gas or liquid through the particle matrix. The resulting hydrodynamic regimes—ranging from ...

Segregation is a constant problem in industrial processes concerning bulk solids. It is generally either of a mechanical nature or a product of fluidization or pneumatic transport. The mechanical ...

Cohesion is often seen as a key factor to bulk powder flowability and is frequently blamed for problems in powder processing. Particles attract to one another in cohesive powder to create agglomerates ...
