  • Patent number: 8187663
    Abstract: A process for measuring, monitoring and/or controlling directed product movements of fluidized products in process systems (1) selected from fluidized bed and spouted bed systems during a spraying process for coating and/or granulation, which includes, with the aid of one or more microwave sensor devices (8), injecting microwave radiation without contact into one or more product streams, receiving the microwave radiation reflected by the particles of the particular product stream and, on the basis of the microwave radiation received, forming and transmitting a measurement signal for the characterization of the product stream, the corresponding use of microwave sensor devices (8) and correspondingly equipped apparatus (1).
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7637999
    Abstract: A fluidized bed reactor for granulating and coating particles in very small amounts having an essentially conical product container, a filter housing with filters inserted above the product container, and a lower housing below the conical product container having a process air supply. The product container has a sieve bottom in the center of which is a height-adjustable two-component nozzle. At least one guide element associated with the sieve bottom directs at least part of the process air to the two-component nozzle in a radial manner.
