The spout-fluid bed is a unique fluid-particle-agitated bed in which spouting and fluidizing occur simultaneously. This technique overcomes such inherent limita-tions as stratification or slugging in a fluidized bed and restricted flow ofannulus solids or instability in a spouted bed. The spout-fluid bed technique gives a much higher rate of circulation and mixing of solids andfluid than any other technique for fluid-particle contact. It allows a larger range of fluid flow rate and good control of spouting or fluidizing. The minimum fluid mass flow rate for maintaining spouting or fluidizing is lower than when theentire bed is only spouted or fluidized.^ great deal of work has been done on fluidization in the last 25 years, and work on spouting by Mathur and Gishler (1955) started around 1955. Their simultane-ous combined effect in the same bed has drawn no atten-tion so far, although its striking physical behavior can well be imagined.The spout-fluid bed underinvestigation is a unique fluid-particle-agitated bed which overcomes many inherent limitations of fluid and spouted beds. The spout-fluid bed consists of a cylindrical column with a flat or conical bottom with evenly distributed perforations for the fluid to enter, and functions as a grid. The center of the grid has a comparatively large opening, connected to a separate line (Figure 1) for the supply of spouting fluid. The bottom of the column is connected to the calming section through which the fluidizing fluid enters. This is similar to imparting spouting in an already fluidized bed or fluidizing the annulus of an already spouted bed. Before attempting a large setup, preliminary observations are taken in a 50-mm.-diameter glass column to spout-fluidize sand and coal of various sizes, using air as the medium.
