RT Journal Article T1 Model of fluidized bed elutriation: effect of the initial mass of fine particles in the bed A1 Santana Santana, Domingo José A1 Macías-Machín, Agustín AB A model of proposed to account for elutriation and attrition based on the assumption that the generation of fine particles by means of attrition depends on the percentage of the mass of fine particles in the bed. Elutriation rate constants and attrition rates were evaluated for various types of particles (TiO₂CaCO₃). A decrease in the elutriation rate constant and in the decrease in the elutriation and attrition rates was significant when the powder cohesiveness diminished. The effect of the initial mass of fine particles on fluidized bed elutriation is also discussed PB Elsevier SN 0368-1653 YR 2006 FD 2006 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10016/13787 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10016/13787 LA eng DS e-Archivo RD 28 abr. 2024
