This study reviews the recent research progress of spouted bed technology in applications
of food products. The pure spouted bed drying, spouted bed drying with inert particles and …

Spout deflection is a common instability phenomenon in spout fluidized beds. However,
spout deflection was not well characterized and quantified in the past. In this work, spout …

The spouted bed regime is an alternative to fixed and fluidized beds due to the excellent gas-
solid contact and the high reduction in operating pressure drop. Nevertheless, the most …

Spout deflection is a common instability phenomenon observed in spouted beds which
decreases control over the spouted bed and worsens particle recirculation efficiency. Prior …

Spouted beds operation quality and stability often suffer from spout deflection, which means
the spout channel shows a lateral movement instead of vertical spouting. A comprehensive …

The drying of fine sand particles (below 1 mm) has been studied in a conical spouted bed
fitted with a draft tube in order to ascertain the performance of a new internal device to …

The Colombian coffee growers face many complications when using traditional open‐sun
drying techniques such as post‐harvest process delays or incomplete grain dryness …

A contactor vessel was built to operate as either a mechanically or a conventional spouted
bed for the purpose of analyzing the drying of pasty and granular materials under …

The present study concerns the development of new models to estimate the minimum
spouting velocity (U ms) in various configurations of fountain‐confined conical spouted beds …

Several spouted bed configurations have been proposed in order to overcome the
limitations and disadvantages of the conventional spouted bed (CSB). This paper evaluates …
