Simulating thermodynamics of fluidized bed processing of food ingredients.

Summary

Fluidized bed processing, both agglomeration and coating, are increasingly being applied in the food industry to improve the characteristics of functional ingredients and additives. A quantitative analysis of these phenomena is described by means of a thermodynamic simulation model describing the relationship between, on the one hand, top-spray fluidized bed process variables and, on the other hand, thermodynamic parameters at steady-state condition, i.e. the thermodynamic operation point.
