In the solids processing industry, agglomeration – or particle enlargement and control – is a critical step in improving the safety, flowability, and performance of many different bulk materials. While the mechanical process of increasing particle size can be relatively straight-forward, each material is unique in the way it responds. This, in turn, affects the way a bulk product performs in its ultimate role. Getting the agglomeration process right often requires consultation with a trusted equipment supplier who can help refine the process for consistent results.
