    Comments Off on Alexanderwerk awarded Poster prize at the 9th Granulation Conference in Lausanne, Switzerland

    After Alexanderwerk had already awarded the poster prize for the best posters in “Dry Granulation” in 2017, it was obvious that this would also happen at the 9th Granulation Conference in Lausanne. Of the total of 125 posters, 49 posters had registered for the prize. After a thorough review of all registered posters, the circle could be fleshed out to 10 participants. These 10 posters were all very close together in the rating, but only 3 have finally prevailed against the competition.

    1. Place – Best Poster in “Dry Granulation”:
    Finite Element Analysis: Feeding Powder Flow in Roller Compaction
    The Poster was presented by Mingzhe Yu from the University of Sheffield (UK).

    2. Place – Best Poster in “Dry Granulation”:
    Effect Of Ribbon Properties On Granule Size Reduction in Dry Granulation Process
    The Poster was presented by Giovanni Bizzotto from the University of Padua (IT).

    3. Place – Best Poster in “Dry Granulation”:
    Compaction Behaviour Analysis Of Granulated Materials Using Cooper-Eaton Equation
    The Poster was presented by Sagar L. Uniyal from the University Toulouse (F).
