In the present work, a population balance model is used to predict dynamic evolution of droplet/particle size
distribution in non-reactive liquid-liquid dispersions and reactive liquid (solid)-liquid suspension polymerization
systems. The effect of dispersed phase hold-up and agitation rate on droplet/particle size and droplet/particle size
distribution were investigated. The cell average technique is applied for solving population balance equation. The
predictive capability of presented model is demonstrated by comparison of model predictions with experimental data
regarding average mean diameter for non-reactive liquid-liquid dispersions and free-radical suspension polymerization
of styrene.
