This study aims to understand granule formation in a fluidized bed by analyzing particle class evolution, Raman spectra, and microscopy. The experimental conditions were divided into wet and dry based on different operating parameters. The results show that wet conditions with a higher amount of liquid binder on the particle surface favor the formation of a sticky layer, leading to more effective particle formation.
Solid bridge formation in the agglomeration process is still not well-understood. This work has aimed to analyze particle class evolution, Raman spectra, and microscopy to comprehend granule formation in a fluidized bed throughout the process. Microcrystalline cellulose was agglomerated by maltodextrin solutions. The experi-mental statuses were classified in wet and dry conditions according to the combination of operating parameters. The effect of solution concentration (5.0, 20.0, and 35.0% w/w), solution flow rate (1.0 and 4.0 mL/min), and air temperature (30 and 90 degrees C) on particle size was checked. Afterward, the solution flow rate was increased from 1.0 to 4.0 mL/min while maintaining constant solution concentration and air temperature. Wet conditions led to more effective particle formation since the amount of liquid binder on the particle surface favored the formation of a sticky layer. The examination of data and images made it possible to identify the solid bridge formation and stability.
