Abstract:
This Research Brief (RB) describes a new method developed at PSRI for sorting textile fibers. In this RB, model fibers were assessed. A follow-up RB will evaluate the efficacy of this method on real post-consumer waste.
About PSRI Research Briefs:
Particulate Solid Research Inc. (PSRI) is an international consortium of companies focused on the advancement of technology in the multiphase flows with granular and granular-fluid systems. Since 1971, PSRI has amassed a prolific amount of design data, technology, know-how, design criteria and models on all aspects of slurries, liquid injection, fluidization, entrainment, pneumatic conveying, attrition, erosion, distributor design, standpipes, solids transfer, and circulating fluidized beds. From the data produced, PSRI has developed design correlations, models, procedures, methods and techniques which are among the best and most useful in the field.
