Spray Dryers – Burners
Spray dryers play a huge role in many industries, including the chemical industry, food industry, pharmaceutical industry and the industrial space. Spray drying refers to a method where dry powder is produced from a liquid as it’s rapidly dried with hot gas. For many materials which are thermally sensitive, spray drying is the preferred method of drying. It provides the benefits of a consistent size in its particle distribution and works with air as the heated drying medium.
Burners for the spray dryer industry
In the food industry, spray dryers are often used for milk powder, coffee, tea, on starch and starch derivatives, and on certain cereals and spices. The pharmaceutical industry largely uses spray drying techniques in the completion stages of antibiotics. The industrial space sees the use of spray drying on ceramic materials and as catalyst supports.
Spray dryers use an atomiser, or spray nozzle, for the purposes of dispersing the liquid. This allows for the resulting flow to be controlled as a drop sized spray. There are a wide range of nozzles available, with the choice of nozzle size and distribution result based on the process needs in relation to the end product and its purpose.
