Fundamentals on cohesiveness among particles and their extension to prediction of agglomerate size and effects on fluidization phenomena were introduced. Methods for improving fluidization, which include flow conditioners, mechanical vibration, sound-assisted fluidization, fluidization with magnetic/electric fields, pulse fluidization, and centrifugal fluidization, were investigated. Finally, the potential application of fluidization in handling and processing of cohesive powders, especially for nanoparticles, were explored.Read More
