Comminution of Wood: Single‐Particle Breakage
AbstractAn essential element for the sustainable use of renewable resources is an efficient comminution process. For efficient comminution processes, detailed knowledge of the fracturing processes is necessary. Therefore, single‐particle comminution under impact stress was investigated, and the influence of the moisture content and the particle size in

Evolution of deformation and breakage in sand studied using X-ray tomography [PDF]
International audienceParticle breakage of a granular material can cause significant changes in its microstructure, which will govern its macroscopic behaviour; this explains why the mechanisms leading to particle breakage have been a common subject ...

Mechanistic analysis and computer simulation of impact breakage of agglomerates: Effect of surface energy [PDF]
Agglomerates are ubiquitous as intermediate or manufactured products in chemical, pharmaceutical and food industries. During handling and processing they may suffer breakage if they are weak.

Particle Breakage in a Scirocco Disperser [PDF]
Particle breakage during dry dispersion for particle sizing is of concern, yet little work has been carried out on its quantitative analysis. An integrated experimental and CFD modelling work has been carried out to study the breakage of a weak and friable powder in a Scirocco disperser at various nozzle pressures.

Dynamic response studies on aggregation and breakage dynamics of colloidal dispersions in stirred tanks [PDF]
Aggregation and breakage of aggregates of fully destabilized polystyrene latex particles in turbulent flow was studied experimentally in both batch and continuous stirred tanks using small-angle static light scattering. It was found that the steady-state

Wet granulation in laboratory-scale high shear mixers: Effect of chopper presence, design and impeller speed [PDF]
The effect of the main means of agitation in a high shear mixer has been investigated in this study. Granulation runs have been performed on a fine cohesive microcrystalline cellulose powder (Avicel 105, d50 = 20 μm) often used as a pharmaceutical ...

On the micro mechanics of one-dimensional normal compression [PDF]
Discrete-element modelling has been used to investigate the micro mechanics of one-dimensional compression. One-dimensional compression is modelled in three dimensions using an oedometer and a large number of particles, and without the use of ...
