Process simulation of twin-screw granulator: The effect of screw configuration on size distribution

Arthur, Tony B., Sekyi, Nana, Rahmanian, Nejat, Pu, Jaan H. 17 February 2023 (has links)
Yes / The effect of screw configuration on granule size distribution (GSD) using gPROMS FormulatedProduct (gFP) software to perform optimization, estimation of complex processes, and analyses is evaluated. Twin-screw granulation modeling was used to investigate the contribution of screw configuration and liquid-to-solid (L/S) ratio on GSD. Lactose and Avicel were the granulating materials. Twelve different configurations were investigated under three feed rates as consistent with literature and at various L/S ratios. Results indicate that kneading elements promote the recovery of 100–1000 µm granules while reducing the production of oversized granules. Higher feed rates support the production of fines and agglomerates, while a low feed rate produces 100–1000 µm granules. / Ghana Scholarship Secretariat
