Fluidization and Handling of Submicron and Nano Particles


Description:
There are more and more request for the fluidization and handling of submicron (100 nanometers to 1 micrometers and nano particles (less than 100 nanometers) but studies on their fluidization are far from comprehensive. This session is designed to invite reports on the latest advances in the fluidization of submicron and nano particles, including fundamental study, experimental work and computational aspects. Studies on their applications are also welcome.
