Granulation Unit - Implemented in Dyssol

Granulator Simulation for Solids Processes

Model granulation as part of a dynamic particulate flowsheet. Track growth, PSD changes, gas streams, liquid addition, and connected downstream units.

The Dyssol process-unit library includes Granulator and Granulator simple batch for granulation flowsheets.

Granulator units in Dyssol

Implemented models for continuous and batch granulation studies.

Use the granulator models to evaluate particle growth and PSD evolution inside connected process networks.

Implemented unit

Granulator

Dynamic granulator with solution, external nuclei, fluidization gas, product, and dust-output ports.

Implemented unit

Granulator simple batch

Batch granulator model with suspension and fluidization-gas inlets for simpler studies.

Granulation in the full flowsheet

Connect feed, gas, product, dust, and downstream handling.

Set up material and gas streams

Use solid, liquid, and gas phases with a defined particle size distribution.

Choose continuous or batch scope

Use the granulator or simple batch granulator depending on the engineering question.

Evaluate PSD evolution

Track particle growth and downstream product behavior through connected flowsheet units.

Granulator model variants

Two implemented units cover different levels of study detail.

What DyssolPro brings

Capabilities that matter for granulation teams.

Dynamic flowsheet simulation

Time-dependent simulation for startup, shutdown, batch, semi-batch, and continuous operating scenarios.

Multidimensional solids properties

Particle-centered modeling with interdependent properties such as size, composition, and moisture across connected units.

Population-balance workflows

PSD tracking and transformation-matrix workflows for process studies where particle size distribution matters.

Custom model development

Model Maker supports implementation, testing, and validation of company-specific unit models.

Typical engineering studies

Common studies for granulation projects.

Operating-window studies

Compare parameter sets inside the connected process instead of studying one isolated apparatus.

Sensitivity analysis

Use the integrated sensitivity analysis tool for implemented process units in DyssolPro.

Optimization studies

Evaluate process settings against target product properties or process-performance metrics.

Custom-model extension

Extend the model library when a project needs proprietary correlations, geometry, or company-specific logic.
