The effects of inlet air temperature and atomizing pressure on the coating efficiency were evaluated using peanuts. Broken peanut pieces were coated with dextrin and sodium caseinate solution by a fluidized bed coater. The coating efficiency was significantly influenced by inlet air temperature and atomizing pressure, with the optimal efficiency achieved at $70^{\circ}C$ and 3 bar, respectively. The coating material consisting of dextrin and sodium caseinate could be used for preventing rancidity of broken peanut.

Squid oil is an abundant source of polyunsaturated fatty acids. This is particularly true for eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid. The principal objective of this study was to extend the stability and improve the process aptitude of squid liver oil. Fluidized bed coatings were employed for coating with microencapsulated oil. The efficiency of the fluidized bed coating of the microencapsulated powder was over 90%. The apparent density with zein-DP was 0.6 g/mL, thereby indicating that flow ability had been improved as the result of an increase in specific gravity. The solubility of artificial gastric and enteric fluids with HPMC-FCC was 59.9 and 0%, respectively, whereas with zein-DP solubility was 0 and 31.0%, respectively. Polyunsaturated fatty acid retention results demonstrated that zein-DP coating was higher than HPMC-FCC, followed by the microencapsulated squid liver oil method. These results demonstrated that the application of microencapsulation and fluidized bed micro-coating techniques improved the stability and processing compatibility of squid liver oil.

Aluminum was deposited on aluminum oxide powders using a fluidized bed reactor at atmospheric pressure. The aluminum oxide powders were irregular flakes with acute angles and the average particle size was 26 $\mu\textrm{m}$. The fluidized bed was formed by flowing argon gas at the velocity of 60 cm/sec. The optimal fluidization condition was obtained with the reactor designed to be tapered so that the fluid velocity decreases as the fluidizing gas goes up along the reactor. Aluminum was deposited by flowing TiBA(Triisobutylaluminum) evaporated at$250^{\circ}C$ through the fluidized bed reactor heated to 350~$450^{\circ}C$. The result from the analysis by XRD and EDAX confirmed the coating of aluminum and an SEM micrograph showed the conformality.

The purpose of this study was to improve the stability and the processing property of vitamin C. Vitamin C was coated according to particle size(80-100 mesh, 100-140 mesh) and mixing ratio(1:1.6, 1:2.5, 1:3(w/w)) with coating solution(8% Zein-DP, 6% HPMC-FCC), and then the quality characteristics of fluidized bed micro coated vitamin C were investigated. The coating efficiency and the thickness of coating film were higher in $80{\sim}100$ mesh particle than in $100{\sim}140$ mesh particles, and coating efficiency was decreased as the coating material was increased. The distribution range of particle was more narrow in mixing ratio of 1:3(w/w) than in the other. DPPH radical scavenging activity was not affected by the particle size and the mixing ratio. There was no difference between the coating materials in terms of the quality characteristics. The optimum coating condition for fluidized bed micro-coating of vitamin C powder was selected as the particle size of $80{\sim}100$ mesh and the mixing ratio with coating solution of 1:3(w/w).

The Rapid Expansion of supercritical fluid Solutions (RESS) process was applied to particles coating. Experiments were conducted in a fluidized bed with an internal nozzle in the center of the reaction tube. Microcapsules (mean particle size : 49$\mu\textrm{m}$) prepared by spray drying method were used as the core particles. Supercritical CO2 solutions of paraffin were expanded through the nozzle in to the bed that was fluidized by air. Surface morphology prepared particles was observed by SEM. For the inspection of particle size change, particle size distributions were measured before and after coating. The releasing behavior of Mg2+ ions inspected by AA.

Pyrolytic carbon layer was coated on A1203 balls by fluidized bed type chemical vapour deposition unit to develop the coating technology for the preparation of coated nuclear fuel. The deposition was carried out at the temperature ranges between 110$0^{\circ}C$ and 130$0^{\circ}C$ with various gas contents and flow rates. Source and carrier gas were propane and argon, respectively. X-ray analysis shows that the deposition layer was typical carbon spectra. The growth rate of carbon layer depended on the amount of source gas and the deposition temperature. For the alumina balls with 2mm in diameter, the deposition rate was 11${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$/hr in the flow gases containing 30% source gas at 130$0^{\circ}C$ with a total flow rate of 2.0$\ell$/min. Microstructural observation of the deposits with scanning electron microscope revealed that the deposits had relatively dense and isotropic structure. Chemical analysis by energy dispersive spectroscopy showed that the layer was pure carbon.

A new technique has been developed for the preparation of Lactobacillus microcapsules to enhance the stability against high temperature, humidity, gastric acid and bile acid. Employing fluidized bed coating, primary sub-coating was processed in non-organic solvent system, so that Lactobacillus did not directly contact with organic solvent. Secondary enteric-coating was processed in organic solvent with low temperature $(below\;33^{\circ}C)$ technique, which minimized the heat labilability of Lactobacillus. Survival rate of Lactobacillus within microcapsule was not less than 95% and acid tolerance was above 30% in the artificial gastric acid. Further more it was dissolved in the artificial intestine juice within 2-3 hr. Average size of Lactobacillus microcapsules was $450\;{\mu}m$(25-50 mesh) and its viability was above 90% in the direct tableting.

This study was performed to investigate the sorption characteristics and shelf-life of coated ascorbic acid Stability of ascorbic acid, which oxidizes easily during storage and processing, was achieved by applying a fluidized bed coating using Zein-DP and HPMC-FCC as covering materials. The monolayer moisture content calculated using the GAB equation showed a higher level of significance than when calculated using the BET equation. The fit to the isotherm curve was in the order of Halsey, Caurie, Oswin and Khun. The equilibrium relative humidity prediction model was established in terms of time and water activity, it had higher significance. The stability of the coated ascoribic acid during storage was investigated in terms of radical-scavenging activity, which decreased with increasing time of storage and was more affected at higher storage temperatures. The quality reduction rate constant (k) was calculated by a first-order reaction rate. The reaction rate constant increased with increasing storage temperature. The shelf-life of Zein-DP-coated ascorbic acid was estimated to be 45.83 days at 20C and 63.19 days at 10C, and the shelf-life for HPMC-FCC-coated ascorbic acid was estimated to be 28.84 days at 20C and 36.14 days at 10, the ascorbic acid was 24.52 days at $20^{\circ}C$ and 27.22 days at $10^{\circ}C$, respectively. Therefore, the fluidized bed coating effectively increased the stability of ascorbic acid.
