Malvern Insitec Helps Optimize Ball Milling Process at Metal Powder Production Facility
21 September 2006 Implementation of a novel control strategy, underpinned by on-line particle size data measured using a Malvern Insitec, has transformed process efficiency at a metal powder production facility. Prior to installation of the new system large fluctuations in particle size were a regular occurrence and the particle size distribution of the finished product was very broad. With the...

CSIRO Takes Malvern Mastersizer Out to Sea
Work by the CSIRO Minerals team in Australia to analyze oil rig wastewaters has demonstrated the robustness of Malvern's Mastersizer design, and the breadth of applications for which this family of particle size analyzers can be used. The work was carried out on a platform 130 km out at sea, using a Mastersizer which had been transported directly to the site. Despite the rigours of...

Particle Size Analyzers are designed for use at- or on-line.
Liquid Process Sizer (LPS) is designed for continuous wet particle size measurement, while Insitec D is suited for use in hazardous areas where potential for dust explosions exists. Both systems utilize Insitec laser diffraction-based particle size analyzer technology. Each component of LPS can be individually tailored to process. LPS sampler extracts 2.5 ml liquid slugs from full pipe section,...

Increased Options for Automated Fluidized Bed Control as Parsum Demonstrates its Utility
Recent trials have demonstrated that the Parsum inline particle size analyzer (Malvern Instruments) can be used successfully to monitor particle growth in a fluidized bed. As part of a joint development project between Glatt Ingenieurtechnik GmbH, Weimar, and Parsum GmbH, Chemnitz, the use of inline particle size measurement was investigated, under various operating conditions. Complex flow...
