Agglomeration Technology Webinar

When selecting the optimum particle size enlargement technology for a specific application, both the specifications of the feed material as well as the requirements for the final product need to be considered. Agglomeration is a specific particle size enlargement process in which particles are “glued” together to increase its’ particle size. Reasons to increase particle size can be to improve flowability, dispersibility/wettability, density, reducing dust or product appearance and to prevent segregation. Hosokawa Micron Powder Systems hosted an educational online webinar focusing continuous agglomeration technology such as the Schugi® Flexomix and how devices like it can improve material characteristics. This webinar will review: •The principles agglomeration & wet granulation – how it works •Why agglomerate materials – benefits & problems •Technologies available for wet granulation •Factors and considerations in planning an agglomeration process •Applications and materials that improve with agglomeration
