Table 3 Major variables and effects on pelletization
From: Critical variables affecting the layering method of pelletization
Sr. No | Variables | Effects | References |
|---|---|---|---|
1 | Atomization | Mass/liquid ratio control droplet size | |
2 | Blow speed | High airflow causes attrition and generates fines | |
3 | Inlet temperature | Premature drying | |
4 | Spray rate | Agglomeration | |
5 | Strength of the coating solution | Blockage of nozzles | |
6 | Size distribution | Flow properties | |
7 | Batch size | Fluidization |
