Numerical simulation of wet granulation in a continuous granulator is carried out using
Discrete Element Method (DEM) to discover the possibility of formation of seeded granules
in a continuous process with the aim of reducing number of experimental trials and means of
process control. Simple and scooped drum granulators are utilized to attain homogenous
seeded granules in which the effects of drum rotational speed, particles surface energy, and
particles size ratio are investigated. To reduce the simulation time a scale-up scheme is …
