Residence Time Distribution in Powder Processing: Why Average Residence Time Can Mislead
Mean residence time describes the center of a powder [...]

NIR moisture predictions depend on both water absorption [...]
The power or torque trace in high-shear wet granulation rises and plateaus as granules consolidate, but the signal is a supporting process indicator, not a direct particle size measurement, and its interpretation is bounded by batch size, impeller geometry, and formulation.
Process analytical technology combined with machine learning is changing residual moisture control and yield prediction in pharmaceutical and food spray drying. The gains are real but bounded, and the off-line test panel has not been replaced.
Real-time particle characterization is moving powder processing from [...]
AI-assisted material characterization speeds testing, strengthens models, and [...]
