Revamping Equipment and Technology of Existing Granulating Plants to Improve the Quality of Granulated Products

Resumo

Finish granulation and encapsulation by fattening technology are used as additional stages to existing granule production process (for example, by prilling technology). The proposed procedure for calculating the dynamics of granule size distribution of the supplied external recycle that is processed into the final product can be applied in the cases of random change in granule growth rate, which allows one to take into account, among others, abrasion of granules, operation in granulation mode and at the final stage of granule abrasion (polishing), and nonuniformity of atomization of the applied product and several other technological procedures and process characteristics.
