Improving Nanosilica Fluidization by Premixing with Geldart A and B Particles: A Detailed Region-Wise Study [PDF]
NanomaterialsUltrafine nanosilica exhibits a strong tendency to form agglomerates, with sizes often several orders of magnitude larger than the primary particles. This agglomeration severely impairs its effectiveness in fluidization and other applications requiring ...

Prediction of minimum fluidization velocity in pulsed gas-solid fluidized bed [PDF]
Chemical Engineering Journal, 2020 Abstract Fluidized bed technology plays a vital role in petrochemistry and coal separation. To enhance fluidization stability, the flow is periodically introduced into the gas–solid fluidized bed to form a pulsed gas–solid fluidized bed (PGFD). As the main fluidization parameter, the minimum fluidization velocity (umf) can reflect the change of the ...

Effect of Isopropanol on the Fluidization of Hydrophilic Titanium Nano-Powder [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Chemical Engineering, 2022 The effect of adding isopropanol (ISP) to nitrogen as the fluidizing gas on the hydrodynamics of the fluidization of hydrophilic titanium nanoparticles was studied. It was shown by the pressure drop method that adding ISP reduces the minimum fluidization
