Hosokawa Micron Tell All on Size Reduction

Powderising specialists Hosokawa Micron released a new website that is a guide to size reduction in all its stages

The new Hosokawa Micron website contains a detailed guide to all you need to know about size reduction when you are considering, for example, a pyrolysis project.

Hosokawa Micron is one of the world’s largest players in the pharmaceutical/ chemicals sector and provides everything from milling to containment services ensuring a high quality, consistent and safe operation processing post pyrolysis carbonaceous materials.

The website takes readers through the various technologies and processes in a step-by-step guide, and conveniently, the whole guide is available to download as a PDF file.

Investing in pyrolysis is never going to be a cheap option, the risks are high and the success rate is not always as the PR message might suggest. However, those who are successful all repeat the message about quality and consistency, and the handling of the output is all part of that quality and consistency.

Hosokawa Micron can deliver the processes and services to ensure that the product leaving the factory gate is supplied in a format that is to specification and consistency, at least in its physical format. The chemical format has to be down to the producer.

One point that is made in the guide is that Hosokawa Micron can assist in building Toll manufacturing processes. This is where the post pyrolysis processing is contracted out. This may be an option for smaller pyrolysis operators whose focus is on getting the process correct. Rather than setting out to refine and package from the outset, Toll manufacturing takes the CAPEX for the processing out of the calculation and the pyrolysis operator might just opt to have the packaging sub-contracted.
