Process and product stability by knowing the material

The influence of glass transition of amorphous food powders during fluid bed agglomeration: Pulverized extracts from fruit and vegetables, plants or probiotics change their physical chemical properties depending on the ambient conditions. Based on material knowledge, precise settings can be selected in fluid bed processes to define particle properties and avoid production losses. (article in German language)

The Gentle Processing of Highly Volatile Oils

Sensitive raw materials, especially those that are volatile or of natural origin, require particularly gentle process conditions. Spray granulation, spray coating and (micro)encapsulation procedures have proven to be methods of choice, as they enable high yields, low temperatures and bespoke properties.

Meet the Glatt PHOS4green experts at the 3rd Berliner Klärschlamm-Konferenz

In the presentation on “PHOS4green – Implementation of a plant for the production of 60,000 t/a fertilizer from sewage sludge ashes at the Haldensleben site”, Jan Kirchhof, Glatt Ingenieurtechnik GmbH and Torsten Brumme, Seraplant GmbH will present the innovative PHOS4green process, with which the essential and sought-after nutrient phosphorus can be recovered from sewage sludge ashes and used for new phosphate or compound fertilizers.

Outside-in process from plant manufacturer: From the idea to market launch – the future is made by the team

For decades, fluid bed equipment has been considered the top class for the production of dust-free, soluble or functional granulates and pellets. Why Glatt Ingenieurtechnik approaches product ideas with an open mind to technology and how this advances the customer’s innovation process. Whoever comes to Glatt is looking for exactly that.

Glatt builds demonstration plant for heavy metal separation from sewage sludge ash in the Rhine-Main region

How can waste management companies in the Rhine-Main economic region join forces and make phosphorus recyclable for the nutrient cycle, as required by law from 2029? This question is being addressed by the nine players in the RePhoRM joint project. Glatt is contributing its expertise to two subprojects: the planning and construction of a container plant in Industriepark Höchst and the studies on spray granulation of purified secondary phosphorus.
