Project: Population characterization of an in-line emulsifier for structured products

This experimental project seeks to develop accurate measurement techniques for characterising droplet size distributions as they recirculate through an in-line emulsifier. This high quality data will then form the basis for an ongoing study to mathematically characterize the emulsification process.
