Overview
Fluidised beds are widely used in industry due to their characteristic fluid like properties of good mixing and heat transfer. Applications of fluid beds range from combustion in power stations, catalytic reactors to the engineering of particles via methods such as low density agglomeration and encapsulation.
What you will learn
This new Fluid Bed Processing and Formulation course at the University of Leeds focuses on the use of fluid beds in particle engineering area and covers:
- the basic principles behind fluidisation
- the importance of particle properties
- the impact of bed design on the structure and optimal operation of fluid beds, both batch and continuous.
Programme Structure
Courses include:
- Key features of fluid bed processing
- Objectives of processing and how/where it is used
- Fluid bed designs – pros and cons
- What can happen if it goes wrong
- The key scientific topics of the course
