A co-rotating twin screw processor for preparing dry granules including an input zone having one or more powder feeders for feeding an input material into the processor, a steam feeder configured to introduce steam as a granulation activating agent in to the processor, a granulation zone for granulating the input material in the presence of steam to form granules, a controller configured to control operation and feed rate of at least one of the powder feeder or the steam feeder such that 2.5 to 5 percent w/w of the steam with respect to the input material is available for granulation, and a discharge zone haring a non-extruding opening for collecting dry granules.

Apparatus for continuous granulation of powder material

The present disclosure concerns effervescent compositions and methods of making and using the same. In some embodiments, the disclosed effervescent compositions are formed from an input blend comprising an acid and a base by granulating the input blend in a twin-screw processor. The granules formed from the input blend can be formed by an in situ granulating agent, which can be a portion of the acid that melts during granulation. In some embodiments, the effervescent compositions can be made using a twin-screw processor comprising an intake zone for receiving an input blend comprising an acid and a base; a granulation initiation zone for melting only a portion of the acid to serve as an in situ granulating agent; a granulation completion zone for granulating the input blend; and an outlet for discharging the granules.

Effervescent composition and method of making it

A fractional lobe processor comprises a barrel with heating and cooling means having two parallel intersecting bores of equal diameter, wherein the centre distance between the two bores is lesser than the diameter of the bore; a shaft coupled with a plurality of screw elements to form a screw within each bore, wherein the screws are intermeshing and form at least three zones within the barrel, the zones comprising an intake zone comprising at least one deep flighted shovel element on each intermeshing screw for receiving a feed comprising an active substance and/or an excipient, a melt zone consisting of only fractional lobe elements for melting the active substance and/or an excipient to form a viscous mass or melt, and a discharge zone, wherein the melt zone is located before the discharge zone and after the intake zone; and wherein the melt zone has a plurality of fractional lobe elements on each shaft.

Fractional lobe processor

Methods for granulating a pharmaceutical powder in a single piece of equipment include at least the following: (a) continuously introducing the pharmaceutical powder and a granulating fluid to the single piece of equipment, (b) passing the pharmaceutical powder and the granulating fluid through a granulating zone of the single piece of equipment to form wet granules, (c) passing the wet granules through a drying zone of the single piece of equipment, (d) optionally passing granules through a discharge zone of the single piece of equipment, and (e) continuously discharging the granules from the single piece of equipment where the single piece of equipment is not a fluid bed processor.

Method for granulating powder

A fractional lobe processor is disclosed. The fractional lobe processor comprises an intake zone comprising at least one deep flighted shovel element on each intermeshing screw for receiving a input blend comprising an active substance and an excipient; a granulation zone consisting of only fractional lobe elements, and having a provision for introducing moisture or a binder solution, for granulating the active substance and the excipient; an optional, drying zone for drying the wet granules; and a discharge zone for discharging the granules; wherein the granulation zone is located before the discharge zone and after the intake zone; wherein the drying zone has one or more fractional lobe elements on each shaft; and wherein the granulation zone has a plurality of fractional lobe elements on each shaft.

Processor and a process for granulation of powders

The present invention relates to effervescent compositions of Metformin and optionally other anti-diabetic agents and processes for preparation thereof. More particularly provides an effervescent composition comprising Metformin, an acid and a base such that the composition is free of affirmatively added binders and granulating solvents. The effervescent composition of the present invention has retained carbon dioxide content of at least 90% of the input blend.

Effervescent compositions of metformin and processes for preparation thereof

A process for preparing granules is disclosed. The process comprises the steps of feeding the input material for granulation in a processor using one or more powder feeders, introducing steam as a granulation activating agent in the processor, granulating the input material in presence of the steam to form granules, and collecting the granules from a discharge zone of the processor. A co-rotating twin-screw processor for preparing granules is also disclosed.

Process for continuous granulation of powder material

Method by a computer of a computing system having a plurality of camera sensors and a camera sensor control system is provided. A gesture input event is identified that is detected by a camera sensor of the camera sensors. Each camera sensor routes video captured by the camera sensor to a data storage system. The first gesture input event is identified as corresponding to a defined attention-based gesture performed by a user. A time the first gesture input event was identified is determined. Video stored in the data storage system is fetched using the time that is determined as a pointer. An indication of the first gesture input event and the video that is fetched is transmitted towards an emergency call center (ECC). A trigger word or sound may be detected, and an indication of the trigger word or sound may be transmitted towards the ECC.

Using closed circuit cameras for emergency services

In general, embodiments of the invention relate to a domain controller for a network. The domain controller includes functionality to manage the provisioning of paths in the network in order to enable content to be streamed across the network.
