Modeling and Simulation of Antisolvent Crystallization: Mixing and Control
… macromixing and micromixing models with the population balance equation. It was applied to simulate antisolvent crystallization in a semibatch stirred vessel and an impinging jet crystallizer. The effects of the operational variables on the crystal size distribution and polymorphic form were …

Mathematical modeling, simulation, and optimal design of pharmaceutical crystallizers
… systems engineering, with the key conservation equation for the particle size distribution being a partial differential equation known as the population balance equation. This thesis constructs population balance models for three distinct particulate processes: 1) the breakage of crystals due to …

Nanomaterials from lignocellulosic biomass : tailorable synthesis via surface functionalization and self-assembly mechanisms
… (DLVO) theory and population balance equation was developed to predict the particle size of LNPs formed in different conditions. Secondly, a diol-based DES pretreatment platform was developed for efficient switchgrass fractionation and lignin functionalization. The …

A Systems Approach to the Modeling and Control of Molecular, Microparticle, and Biological Distributions
… is simulated by directly solving the entire mole balance equations. The method is capable of predicting bimodal distributions with no prior information of the distribution. Worst-case analysis is used to introduce a new distributional analysis tool: distributional analysis of a distribution, which …

Computational Fluid Dynamics and Population Balance Modeling of Particulate Systems
… The models focus on the combination of population balance equations and computational fluid dynamics software. For the simulation of antisolvent crystallization, knowledge of kinetics at high supersaturation are necessary. Chapter 2 describes the concentration profile within a …

Eulerian modelling and computational fluid dynamics simulation of mono and polydisperse fluidized suspension
… suspensions. We first derive new averaged equations of motion for particulate systems made up of a finite number of monodisperse particle classes; this clarifies the mathematical origin and physical meaning of the terms featuring in the equations and allows to attain a well-posed multiphase …
