Powders and solids are a tricky business. You have to be proactive to ensure catastrophic events like dust explosions don’t happen. You have to be able to convert laboratory findings into a meaningful process design all while taking into account forces unknown or unseen. And you have to make it all flow according to plan and specs.
To help you address potential problems, we’ve put together
another Chemical Processing eHandbook. It includes advice on:
Talk to a Chemist
You may get valuable insights for successfully scaling up a process
Surmount Sticky Situations
A properly designed fluid-bed dryer can handle sticky solids
Support Good Housekeeping Practices
Implement a proactive approach using industrial vacuum cleaners to
prevent secondary dust explosions
Predicting Powder Flow Behavior Just Got Easier
New shear cell tests help to ensure product consistency
Understand Powder Flow Characteristics
