TLDR
In this paper, a vibratory plate separator was used to separate spherical and non-spherical particles according to shape, which is quite different from the apparatus in the works referred to above.Abstract:
Powdershape separators have been reported in the literature. For example, Carpenter et aU\\ Riley2} and Sugimoto et a/.3'4>6) have tried to separate mixtures of spherical and non-spherical particles by use of rotarydisc separators. Waldie7) has separated more spherical particles from mixtures of particles of different shapes by using a rotating tube. In this work, separation of particles according to shape was carried out by meansof a vibratory plate separator, which is quite different from the apparatus in the works referred to above.read more

Investigation of the vibration sorting of non-spherical particles based on DEM simulation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors applied the discrete element method (DEM) to simulate the behavior of spherical particles and non-spherical particles motion on an inclined vibrating plate (IVP), and the influence of different operating parameters on the separation performance of the mixed particles was investigated.

Application of a gamma-radiation density Gauge for determining hydrodynamic properties of fluidized beds
TL;DR: A modified, off-the-shelf, gamma-radiation density gauge has been interfaced into a microprocessor and mounted to a movable assembly mechanism which allows fluctuating bed density to be monitored on-line at any axial height in a fluidized bed.

TL;DR: In this article, a rotating cylinder with blades was used for the batch mode operation, and binary mixtures of spherical and non-spherical particles were classified continuously according to shape. The performance of the classifier run in batch and continuous modes were compared with each other and the superiority of the continuous operation to the batch operation was shown for the rate of shape separation.
