2025 AIChE Annual Meeting

Session: Fluidization: Fundamentals

This session covers all aspects of fluidization and heat transfer in fluid-particle systems involving gas-solid, liquid-solid, and gas-liquid-solid phases. It invites papers on experimental, analytical, and computational approaches to understanding reactive and non-reactive fluid-particle interactions and their effects on flow systems.
