Session: Mixing in Multi-Phase Systems - Solid-Liquid Systems (2009 Annual Meeting)

Tuesday, November 10, 2009: 8:30 AM

Bayou A (Gaylord Opryland Hotel)

Description:

Multi-phase processes are ubiquitous in the process industries. There are still many such processes, most involving mixing in some way, that are poorly understood. This session will present progress in the area of solid-liquid mixing and suspension.
