Applications of Fluidization


Description:
Papers on fluidized bed applications and similar unit operations are invited. For example, topics may cover, but not limited to, the experimental and computational studies related to solids motion and mixing, heat transfer, entrainment rates, disengagement heights, hydrodynamic modeling and reactive systems.
