Spray dryer introduction
- Atomization: The liquid feedstock is atomized into fine droplets using high-pressure nozzles or rotary atomizers, increasing surface area for rapid drying.
- Evaporation: The atomized droplets are introduced into a hot drying chamber, where moisture evaporates quickly, leaving behind dried particles.
- Airflow Control: The drying chamber’s airflow is carefully controlled to ensure uniform drying and prevent product degradation or overheating.
- Particle Collection: Dried particles are separated from the drying air using cyclones or bag filters, collecting them for further processing or packaging.
- Temperature Monitoring: Advanced systems monitor and adjust drying chamber temperatures to maintain optimal drying conditions for different materials.
