It assembles granulation process including traditional (wet and dry process) and novel (fluid-bed foamed binder high-shear melt thermal adhesion moisture activated dry granulation pelletization steam granulation microencapsulation novel dry granulation process and many more) processes. Assembling also is information on sugar and film coating conventional and perforated coating pans solventless process and many more.
