Follow These Tips to Select the Right Pelletizer. Start by assessing the status quo, as well as defining future needs. Develop a five-year projection of materials and required capacities. Short-term solutions very often prove to be more expensive and less satisfactory after a period of time. Most of all, know your options.
In this webcast EIRICH's product specialist Nick Semitka talks about different methods to agglomerate, granulate and pelletize. He discusses particle size di
10.13. Conclusion. Spheronization, granulation, pelletization, and agglomeration can be used to transfer powders or liquids to free-flowing granules with defined properties. This chapter provided practical examples of the particle formation process using operation principles of different types of equipment.Typically, planetary mixer is used routinely for both blending and granulation operation. High shear mixer introduces a high amount of energy into the wet mass which is transformed into heat and induces evaporation of granulation fluid. This changes the extrusion behavior of the wet mass.
Granulation is defined as the size enlargement process in which fine and smaller particles are aggregated to form strong and stable particles called granules. Present article mainly focuses on advanced granulation techniques such as moisture activated dry granulation, thermal adhesion granulation, foam binder granulation etc.Melt pelletization of lactose in an 8 litre high shear mixer was examined by a factorially designed experiment. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) 3000 was used as melting binder in a concentration of 23% m/m. The load of the mixer was varied at 600, 800 and 1000 g of lactose.Wet granulation pelletization: The active substance is combined with microcrystalline cellulose (5–30%) and the mixture is granulated with water or an organic solvent. During the process, the granules are compacted and spheronized. This operation can be performed using the PMA™ Pellet Processor or the ULTIMAPRO™. Spheronization, granulation, pelletization, and agglomeration can be used to transfer powders or liquids to free-flowing granules with defined properties. This chapter provided practical examples of the particle formation process using operation principles of different types of equipment.
