Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Fauna associada as bromelias Cannistran aff. giganteum (Baker) L. B. Smith e Neoregelia cruenta (R. Graham) L. B. Smith de restinga do litoral norte do Estado de São Paulo(Universidade Estadual de Campinas, 1981) FERREIRA, Clara Pantoja; BENSON, Woodruff Whitman; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7116492347323901An experimental set up for the study of tablets coating in a two-dimensional spouted bed that uses vibration of the perforated base to enhance the circulation of the particles was developed. An acrylic rectangular upper section (4x32 cm) with fixed 4x4 cm draft plates was adjusted over 3 different convergent secctions (inclination 50') with 4x4 cm, 4x6 cm or 4x8 cm bases and contained 800g, 1100g or 1300g of tablets, Air (0,8 to 1,6 m3/min) forced by a 7,5 cv blower, was cooled down to 55°C and spouted this bed. The lenticular tablets (0,12g; 0,25g., 0,44g) were coated with a polymeric aqucous solution (11% solids). A two-fiuid atomizer (air pressure 82,7 1(.Pa) was used, inserted lateraily, near the bed base, and showed no influence on the movement of the particles. The experimental characterization of the tablets circulation rates was emphasized, using a magnet (0,4062 g) that followed the particles, activating a bobbin located at the upper end of the draf plates, The electric pulses were processed by a data acquisition sistem and the cicie time distribution curves were adjusted by the Modiíied Spline fit technique. The mean of the cicie t.in e distribution creased with are increase of the bed load and the size of the ta.blets in ali comparative tests. The vibration (10 Hz, 8 mm amplitude) reduced the mean of the cicie time distribution by more than 10%, and also decreased its variance. The vibration ais() aí ected the maxirnum pressure drop (40% reduction) and the minimum spouting velocity The vibro spouted bed showedhigher- adhesion efficency (73 to 88%) than the non-vibrated spouted bed (66 to 79%) in ali equivalent situations and the complete coating of the smailer tablets dema.nded iess processing time due to higher surface arca circulation rate.
