Within the EU-funded PARDEM network mixing and segregation are studied in silos and heaps, agitated mixers and fluidized beds. A method is presented with which mixing and segregation can be characterized, adapted for quasi-static to dynamic systems and applied at the global system level as well as at the local level. This paper attempts to give an overview of the applicability of this analysis by providing three instances, being chute flow representing flow down a heap, agitated mixing and fluidization, in which the method is applied
