Spray Drying
Spray drying is the atomisation of a liquid feed into spray droplets that
are then dried immediately with hot air in a drying chamber. By controlling the
process carefully it is possible to manage the characteristics of the resulting
powder precisely to meet the manufacturing requirements.
Spray drying
is highly suited for the continuous production of dry solid in either powder,
granulate or agglomerated form from liquid, aqueous or non-aqueous solution,
suspensions or emulsions. It is the ideal when the end product must comply with
precise quality standards relating to particle size distribution, residual
moisture content, bulk density and particle shape.
The Niro Test Centre
includes eleven spray drying technologies all available for customers’ use for
evaluating processes or for short run manufacturing projects.
