Q:
Which of the following is not a disadvantage of Fluidized bed granulator?
Answer & Explanation
Answer: C) A fluidized bed granulator cannot be automated
Explanation: A fluidized bed can be automated once the parameters are optimized and is one of the advantages of fluidized bed granulators. The low density granules are lighter due to lower gravity, and can get carried away easily. The residence time, which is the granulation period, also increases in a fluid bed granulator. A fluidized bed granulator cannot achieve the same degree of densification in batch mode as it does in continuous mode.
