  • Patent number: 10132565
    Abstract: The invention is based on a star-shaped rotation dryer (1) for segmenting a fluidizing chamber 4) into process compartments (11), whereby the star-shaped rotation dryer (1) is pivot mounted and features dividing wall (9) or similar for the conveyance of solid particles along a conveyance path, whereby a flow-receiving base (10) is detachably mounted below the star-shaped rotation dryer (1); the invention further relates to a method of spray-coating solid particles for the purpose of agglomeration, coating, layering, spray granulation or pelletization, whereby the retention time spectrum of the solid particles inside the fluid-bed apparatus (2) has a margin of at least 1:3 (alternatively tRTD90?3 tRTD10).

  • Patent number: 10076738
    Abstract: The invention starts out from a fluidizing apparatus (1) for conditioning solid particles, consisting of a distribution chamber (2), a turbulence chamber (3), wherein the turbulence chamber (3) has separating walls (10) or the like for conveying solid particles along a conveyor path, a solid particle inlet unit (6) as well as a solid particle outlet unit (7) and a flow receiving base (11), wherein an air distribution plate (18) is arranged below the flow receiving base (11), and opening ratios, which result through openings (22) in the air distribution plate (18), vary.
