			*[https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DW4CVVV/ref=emc_b_5_t Possible Air Diffuser] 8 inch diameter (inner or outer?)
			*Look into sheet raw material
			*Cut into shape, glue into pipe (or use some sort of cupling with a lip/reduction in diameter) the put an air valve below it
			*Use aggregate from local hardware store as media (look for finest possible such as sand)

			==Bin==
			*1x plastic Bin (or paint can)
			*bubble releasing tube from local store (big box or pet/aquarium store most likely
			*Adapter to air compressor

Created Page + Added Basic Sections/Info

New page

=Basics=
*Fluidised Solids have many uses for chemical reactants, [[Gas Scrubbers]], and combustion/gasification
*These are complex devices, and thus a sort of development workbench would be of use
*This is such a device

=Industry Standards=
*

=Existing Open Source Designs=
*[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=My4RA5I0FKs This PVC Pipe and Plastic Container Based Design] the air in this was quite coarse perhaps impacting fluidity
*[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nig7VZ8H944 A Device using a barrel and a cloth covered pipe air distributor]

=Minimum Viable Product=
*Various tube options such as
**Small PVC Pipe
**Acrylic/Clear Pipe for Observation
**Steel Pipe for Large and/or durable designs
**Fused Quarts Tube for Observation of Heat Involving Experiments
*Should work with a standard shop compressor
*Should be fully fluidized, and have little bubbles/inconsistencies in the fluidization

=Basic Design=
==Base==
*Most likely some sort of sheet metal or other sheet
*A pipe holding support, direct cap/pipe weld or some sort of similar device

==Tube==
*1 Inch PVC Pipe
*1 Inch Acrylic Pipe
*1 Inch Steel Pipe
*[https://www.qsiquartz.com/custom-fused-quartz/clear-fused-quartz-tubing/ Fuzed Quartz Pipe]
*10 Inch Steel Pipe

==Air Injection Mechanism==
*Arduino Controlled Valve
*Some sort of [[Air Diffuser]] perhaps aquarium/wastewater treatment Off the shelf, would graphite work?
*All of this is fitted to either an end cap, or the baseplate
*Perhaps make the diffuser a module to allow for swapping of various designs

==Fluid Injection Module==
*Alternate Use with liquids
*Can act as a Sand Filter with more surface area for microbial growth, or for chemical reactions
*Perhaps just plates/piping with holes
