4、dynamics of a Wurster granulator on the scale of individual particles. Based on extensive material tests, the collision behaviour of dry -Al2O3 particles is identified and incorporated into the model. The effect of process parameters like air flow rate and geometry details like the Wurster position
5、is studied. Based on a physical description of the material properties, an effective tool for design and scale-up of a Wurster granulator is obtained. INTRODUCTION Fluidized bed spray granulation plays an important role in the manufacturing of powder granules in the food and pharmaceutical ind
6、ustries as it allows producing dust-free and free-flowing particles. Liquid binder is sprayed into a bed of solids to achieve granule growth. Looking on the micro-scale, after the impact of droplets on granules or primary particles and wetting of the particles surface, drying of the binder layer and evaporation of the solvent initiates layer-wise binder deposition (coating). The Wurster is a common technique in the pharmaceutical industry used to coat tablets. A cylindrical draft tube is inserted vertically int
