2015 AIChE Annual Meeting Proceedings

Session: Gas-Solid Transport and Separations

This session seeks both experimental and theoretical papers on the design, operation, and fundamental understanding of gas-solids transport (viz. pneumatic conveying) systems and gas-solid separation equipment (e.g. cyclones and swirl tubes)
