Particle growth and control during calcination

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6679227
The success of any new process cannot be assured without some knowledge of the fundamentals associated with the process. This report describes studies conducted in a fluidized-bed calciner to determine: (1) particle growth and size distribution, (2) the amount of fines generated by the feed nozzle(s) due to spray drying and attrition, and (3) some of the physical properties of the calcined product and their effects on the process.
