Text transferred from article summary edit

Without citations, this article may be argumentative. It is cautioned that the information below may not be correct, as the current definitions and processes in this article can allow most powders mixed with other liquids to be considered microencapsulated, if the liquid serves to protect it in any way. The data below needs citations to be considered factual. These citations do not currently exist.

Concern may be valid, but random text in the article header is not the best way to represent this concern. user:shoka not logged on

Why does this page have nothing on lipospheric encapsulation which is not only so common but increasingly popular with laymen? Would be great to have it added. Here's a review paper I found that talks about various lipo versions: http://www.ifrj.upm.edu.my/afjv14(1)2007/1-14.pdf ASEAN Food Journal 14 (1): 1-14 (2007) user:palyne

I have made a start on adding and updating references. Please be patient as this may take me a month or two reading all the references to check validity and relevance etc. GRALISTAIR (talk) 16:14, 28 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Methods / Terms I Encountered edit

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I encountered these while looking into Pharmaceutical Manufacturing (which i dove into looking for Industrial (Applications of) Chromatography (Seems Simulated Moving Bed Chromatography is the term for that) )
- Wurster (Process) Coating / "Wurster Fluid Bed Coating" / "Wurster Fluid Bed Micro-encapsulation" etc
  - This is basically a Spouted Fluidized Bed / Spouted Bed / Spouted Bed Reactor (Whichever term gets a page first), that uses a gas to fluidize the material, but also has a spray nozzle that sprays the coating material on the particles as they pass by
- "Top Spray" Process
  - This is a more conventional Fluidized Bed ("Bubbling Fluidized Bed" may be the term, although it may be more violent than that?) (it may also be able to utilize the spouted kind, but i feel in that case the wurster process is basically there already and seems superior so i doubt this is done?) with sprayers near the top of the unit spraying down at the particles being fluidized
I just thought i'd document this here in case it helps anyone else working on this / in case i come back later and write pages on this
