This session seeks papers covering all aspects of Agglomeration and Granulation Processes, i.e., the process of forming larger granules from fine particles with or without the use of a binder; this includes wet-and melt-granulation, mixer-granulation, fluid bed granulation and coating and compaction under pressure. Papers are requested on theoretical, computer modeling and experimental research performed on the above systems; this includes fundamental physical and chemical aspects of agglomeration on granular, unit operation dynamics (e.g., flow and stress fields), system integration, scale-up and process control.
