Spray dryer introduction
- Industrial Drying Equipment: The spray dryer is a piece of industrial drying equipment used to convert liquid feed materials into dried powder or granules.
- Atomization and Drying: The liquid feed material is atomized into small droplets and quickly dried by hot air or gas, resulting in a dried product.
- Widely Used: Spray dryers are widely used in industries such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and more, due to their versatility and efficiency.
- High Efficiency: Spray dryers can achieve high drying efficiency and can handle a wide range of materials.
- Compact Design: The compact design of spray dryers makes them suitable for both laboratory and industrial-scale applications.
- Customizable: Spray dryers can be customized to meet specific process requirements, such as moisture content, particle size, and more, ensuring optimal drying results.
The working principle is as follows
- Atomization: The liquid feed material is atomized into small droplets using a high-pressure nozzle or rotary atomizer.
- Drying Chamber: The atomized droplets are introduced into a drying chamber filled with hot air or gas.
- Rapid Drying: As the droplets fall through the chamber, they are rapidly dried by contacting the hot air or gas.
- Dried Particles: The dried particles are then collected at the bottom of the drying chamber.
- Moisture Removal: The hot air or gas evaporates the moisture from the droplets, leaving behind dried particles.
- Particle Collection: The dried particles are collected using a cyclone separator, bag filter, or other collection method.
