26
Q

FLUIDIZATION STAGE:
it is the fluidization stage wherein particles remain in contact with one another and the bed structure remain stable until the velocity is increased to the point where pressure drop is balanced by the weight per unit area of the particles

A

fixed bed

27
Q

FLUIDIZATION STAGE:
in gas-fluidized systems, it is the region where the dominant pattern is one of the vertically upward transport of particles , essentially gas-solids transport or pneumatic conveying

A

fast fluidization

28
Q

FLUIDIZATION STAGE:
it is the stage where in the bed continues to flow upward even at constant velocity . there is no trend for bed height and pressure drop

A

mobilized bed

29
Q

FLUIDIZATION STAGE:
in this stage it is when the particles are hoovering in the fluid , drag force balances the weight of the particles , the bed height increases and it has constant pressure drop

A

fluidized bed

30
Q

31
Q

Sedimentation

A

Operation by which solids are separated from liquids due to the difference in their respective densities

32
Q

SEDIMENTATION MECHANISM:
Regardless of their properties, the particles are sufficiently far apart to settle freely.

A

Dilute / Free Sedimentation

33
Q

The ultimate velocity when the acceleration force and resisting (buoyant & drag) force are equal. Remains constant in this velocity afterwards.

A

Terminal Velocity

34
Q

Classification

A

Separation of solid particles into several fractions based upon their terminal velocities.

35
Q

SEDIMENTATION MECHANISM:
