Innovative Mini Spray Dryer for Laboratory And Pilot Scale Production

Description:

A spray dryer is a device used to produce a dry powder from a liquid or slurry by rapidly drying with a hot gas. The basic principle involves atomizing the liquid feed into fine droplets using a nozzle or rotary atomizer. These droplets are then introduced into a drying chamber, where they come into contact with a hot gas, usually air. The hot gas quickly evaporates the moisture from the droplets, resulting in the formation of dry particles. The dry particles are separated from the drying gas in a cyclone or a bag filter and collected at the bottom of the chamber. The final product is a free-flowing powder. Spray drying is widely used in various industries, including food, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals, due to its ability to produce uniform and fine particles, retain product quality, and 

achieve efficient drying.
