Segregation Assessment & Control

Differences in particle size, density, shape and aerodynamic response can separate a mixture during handling even when the initial blend is uniform.

Typical problems

What brings clients to us.

  • →Loss of blend uniformity
  • →Fine/coarse separation
  • →Composition variation through discharge
  • →Segregation in vertical transfer
  • →Stratification during fluidization
  • →Non-uniform batch portions

Our approach

From symptom to evidence.

Dedicated sifting and fluidization tests reproduce gravity-driven and air-driven segregation. Indices and section-wise samples show the severity and location of separation.
