Process-Spray Functional Particles Produced in Spray Processes [Hardcover]

This book describes the latest research on producing functional particles using spray processes. The authors detail micro level elementary processes and phase boundaries, process analysis scaling and modeling, and macro level process functions and particle properties. They include numerical simulations and particulars of experiments for deriving process conditions for particle production.Part I - Process-Spray Micro Scale - Elementary Processes at Phase Boundaries.- 1 Investigation of Elementary Processes of Non-Newtonian Droplets inside Spray Processes by Means of Direct Numerical Simulation.- 2 Interfacial engineering for the microencapsulation of lipophilic ingredients by spray-drying.- 3 Structure Formation within Spray Dried Droplets; Mathematical Modelling of Spray Polymerisation.- 4 Acoustic Levitation: A powerful tool to model Spray Processes.- 5 Movement and hydrodynamic instabilities of particle-laden liquid jets in the centrifugal field inuenced by a gas ow.- 6 Experimental Investigation and Modelling of Coalescence and Agglomeration for Spray Drying of Suspensions.- 7 Particle formation from gas enriched polymeric melts and polymeric solutions.- 8 A Real-Time Process Analysis System for the Simultaneous Acquisition of Spray Characteristics.- Part II - Process-Spray Meso Scale - Process Analysis, Modeling and Scaling.- 9 Modeling and Simulation of Single Particle and Spray Drying of PVP- and Mannitol-Water in Hot Air.- 10 Droplet-Stream Freeze Drying for the Production of Protein-Formulations - From Simulation to Production .- 11 Correlations between suspension formulation, drying parameters, granule structure and mechanical properties of spray dried ceramic granules.- 12 Statistical Extinction Method for the Inline Monitoring of Particle Processes.- 13 Numerical Simulation of Monodispersed Droplet Generation in Nozzles.- 14 Spray drying tailored mannitol carrier particles for dry powder inhalation with differently shaped active pharmaceutical ingredienlóâ
