CfPA - The Center for Professional Advancement, 90 Minute Accredited Online Training
August 19, 2010 at 1:00 p.m.–2:30 p.m. (ET)
Who Should Attend
This wheel and two-fluid atomization course is for professionals in the chemical, biotechnology, agricultural sprays, food, pulp and paper, combustion and medical areas. Those involved with spray-dependent processes, including chemical reactors, coatings, spray drying, powder metallurgy, evaporative cooling, specialty chemicals, combustion and medical sprays, will benefit. The following professionals will find the course especially valuable:
• Biotechnologists
• Coating Engineers
• Food Technologists
• Combustion Engineers
• Agricultural Engineers Description
Wheel and two-fluid atomization are an important process used in many industries, including chemical, petrochemical, biochemical, medical, food, paper, combustion, fuels, and agricultural industries. This 90-minute accredited online training course provides an introduction to these types of atomization for engineers, scientists and technologists who are interested in or need to know more about atomization, atomizer design, atomizer specifications and selection for various applications.
Key areas covered include the various wheels and two-fluid atomization methods, atomizer design, factors affecting operation, drop size, spray characteristics, atomizer performance criteria, atomizer maintenance and drop size distributions. Proper atomizer selection will be emphasized.
