TOP SPRAYING SYSTEM FOR AGGLOMERATION AND GRANULATION PROCESS:
The process is used in fluid beds to form granules form a fine powder. The fluidized powder is wetted with binder by using top spraying system. The top spraying system provided with spraying nozzle and precise dosing peristaltic pump. The fluidized powder is wetted until liquid bridges are formed between particles. Segregation of powder doesn’t take place as different powder is glued together on a micro scale. Since there is no impinging force in fluid bed equipment’s the granules are weak and having good solubility. Once the granules are made, they are dried in the equipment using hot air. This technology used for formed granules for Tableting, capsule, dust free process, free flow properties, good dispensability and excellent solubility due to porous structure of granules.
There are two different modes of fluid bed granulating wet stage and dry stage.
In dry stage granulation, the particles only require a slight wetting to become tacky and stick to each other. The granulating solution is applied at a rate less than or equal to its evaporation rate. Thus, the particles remain “dry” through the entire process.
In wet stage granulation, the particles require a significant amount of moisture or granulating solution before they become tacky enough to stick to each other. The granulating solution is applied at a rate higher than the evaporation rate until the particles build up enough moisture to granulate.
The unique features of bottom-spraying are an air distribution plate and a partition that together organize fluidization of particles through the partition (coating zone). The nozzle is mounted at the bottom of the product container and is centred in the coating zone. The short distance between the coating materials and particles during the coating process minimizes spray-drying and contributes to high coating uniformity and coating efficiency the particles are suspended in air by creating fluidized bed in a heated air stream and a coating solution is sprayed on to the particle through Wurster column. Using a specially modified bottom spray insert that protects heat sensitive product from excessive heat at the same time providing even coating on Pellet / granules. Critical design parameters like chamber geometry, air velocity and mass flow ratio of air to product are carefully matched in PRA- FLUPRO
