PROJECT
On February 1st 2001 a large international research and technological development project started its activities. The project is titled:

EDECAD

"Efficient DEsign and Control of
Agglomeration in spray Drying machines"


Aim
This project, co-ordinated by NIZO food research from the Netherlands, aims at developing an industrially validated (computer) model, using CFD technology, to predict agglomeration processes in spray drying machines.

Sponsor
This project is sponsored by the EC Fifth Framework Programme within the research programme "Competitive and Sustainable Growth" through contract G1RD-CT-2000-00340.
