Analytical Solution to the Discretized Population Balance Equation for Pure Breakage with Application to Kernel Identification

Published in Chemical Engineering Research and Design, 2025

This paper develops an analytical solution framework for breakage population balance equations using eigen-decomposition, enabling more direct interpretation and kernel identification.

The work links theoretical development with wet-milling experiments and particle-size analysis.
