Product Profile of Fluidized Spray Dryers With Spray And Fluid Bed Drying Technologies

Shachi Engineering Pvt. Limited, an ISO 9001: 2000 Certified Company offers Fluidized Spray Dryers. The Fluidized Spray Dryers are equipped with spray drying and fluid bed drying technologies. Operational flexibility enables production of a wide range of physical properties and excellent thermal efficiency because drying at lower temperature. The spray is created by a spray nozzle atomizer down towards the fluid bed where agglomeration incorporating finer, recycled material takes place. The recirculation system uses cyclones or bag filters. Often a combination of both is also used to recycle fines to the spray dryer chamber and also to the integrated fluid bed, or the external fluid bed. The process produces non-dusty, free flowing agglomerated powders with high flavor retention. Third stage fluid bed drying / cooling can be done. Sticky products can effectively be dried, and the concept is ideal for drying heat sensitive products, and improved aroma retention is accomplished. This design concept is successful for drying high fats, hygroscopic, and sticky products that are difficult to handle in more conventional designs. The benefits of the Fluidized Spray Dryers are as follows:

• Individually customized plant delivers the optimum solution for specific process and production requirements.

• Innovative drying system design together with straightforward service and maintenance access ensures maximum production run-time
.
