Abstract

A nozzle for distributor devices of granule's growth liquid substance in fluid bed granulators, is distinguished by the fact that it comprises a duct (2) having, at one end, at least one inlet opening (3) for a flow (F) of a chosen granule's growth liquid substance, and, at the other end, a supply opening (5) for such substance, a gaseous flow distributor (6) externally associated to the duct (2) in predetermined spaced relationship from the supply opening (5) and in fluid communication with the inside of the duct (2), and emulsifying means (8) associated to the inlet opening (3) and the distributor (6) to obtain, inside the duct (2), an emulsion of the gaseous flow in the growth liquid substance.
