Dear sir,

 

How to calculate the amount of flow required to fluidize the bed which is used for adsorption?

A strange question. Adsorbent beds are usually operated with downflow so fluidization is not possible. However, you can use Google to find your answer. You will need the size and shape of the individual particles.

 

Good luck

Bobby

Sir ,

          Is the application of fludisation is not relative to adsorption and regeneration beds?

Adsorption is usually accomplished in a fixed bed. Multiple beds are required if regeneration is frequent. Fluid beds are used in reaction systems, like FCC or polyethylene.
