CRC 1615 - Project C04: SMART continuously operated fluidised bed for spray granulation with self-regulating residence time distribution

In project C04 a concept for a continuously operated fluidised bed spray granulation process will be developed based on recurrence CFD (rCFD) simulations and reactor adaptation. The rCFD simulation framework is obtained by calibration experiments and detailed CFD-DEM simulations of the particle formulation step. Once the database is created, the simulations will be fed by live process data from inline sensors such as Lagrangian sensor particles. As they are running faster than real-time, the timely intervention is enabled. Together with the adaptable residence time distribution by novel flexible vertical weirs, this project delivers important features for SMART reactors.
