Fluidized beds are widely used in many chemical process applications to provide better heat and mass transfer between the fluid and the solid, compared to conventional packed- or moving-bed operations. This article summarizes the basic concepts of fluidized-bed technology and provides a useful collection of equations for the design and operation of gas-solids systems....
